This Malkmus is better than I ever imagined.
Very psyched for the club show now.
Can't wait for the new Portishead album!

Last one of these links I post here; I imagine the moderators aren't too happy with it.

I've all but lost all hope of that Dr. Dre album ever seeing the light of day.

Thurston Moore To Score Adult Film
By Eliot Van Buskirk
January 18, 2008
Sonic Youth's lead axeman Thurston Moore recorded a soundtrack for a film called Extra Action (And Extra Hardcore), featuring "real women: unpretentious, unadorned, and definitely undressed."
We can probably expect something different from Thurston on this one; it's doubtful he'd employ the standard bow-chicka-wow approach. (Is that even a standard anymore, or merely a dying 70s trope? Nevermind).
"Those who love Kern's books know each is an invitation to join him as he follows them through their homes-or his New York apartment-from backyard to kitchen to bathroom to bedroom, capturing every sexy and embarrassing moment," according to the official description.
"Whenever Kern photographs one of these energetic, clothes-dropping exhibitionists, he brings out a video camera and asks them to 'roll around and do something interesting for a few minutes.' Extra Action [one hour long] documents 60 of these innocent amateur incidents set to an original musical score by Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth."
Extra Action (And Extra Hardcore) ships on March 18th for $20 (available on Family Video?).
Tracklisting:
The King of Sex
Pierce
Scooter and Jinx
Catholic
Nazi
Goodbye 42nd Street

It would be nice if Autolux released their album this year. But I'm not holding my breath.
It was sorta meant as a joke…
Anyway, you prompted me to listen "Sacred Songs." I don't know what to make of it.

Good heads up, the new album seems to be "floating" out there.

He got it.
The new Hammock, "Maybe They Will Sing For Us Tomorrow".
Hammock has made a new record called "Maybe They Will Sing for Us Tomorrow". As some of you might remember, Hammock performed live for the first time ever in Hot Springs last summer for the US debut art exhibition of Riceboy Sleeps. â??Maybe They Will Sing for Us Tomorrowâ? is a studio recording of the sound installation that we wrote and performed for that event. Actually, â??studio performanceâ? is a better way to put it (more on that below). The title of the record comes from a Riceboy Sleeps painting that we love. Thereâ??s still a lot of work going on behind the scenes, but we hope to have it out sometime in March.
Weâ??re really happy to announce that the front and back cover artwork will be created by Riceboy Sleeps (Jonsi Birgisson, lead singer/guitarist of Sigur Ros and Alex Somers of Parachutes). The six-panel, cardstock CD package will also include contributions by Chuck Dodson (words) and Thomas Petillo (photographs of the band, a first for us).
Being so connected to this music means itâ??s difficult for us to describe it, but we feel like this might be our most personal and focused record to date. Itâ??s definitely our most â??ambientâ? release so farâ??it contains no beats. The guitar parts for these eleven new pieces were recorded live in the studio with very little use of a click track. We recorded these songs exactly as we performed them, so hopefully thereâ??s a spontaneity and vulnerability to the music that shines through. The string parts were added in later by our friend Matt Slocum. Working this way was a new experience for us, and we feel like this approach gives this record its own unique personality.
An even bigger challenge than making the recording itself was writing the music. All of these songs had to be written keeping in mind that we would be reproducing it onstage using nothing more than two guitars. The question was, â??Given the limitations, could we write music that was moving and interesting?â? Those limitations were really self-imposed, and thatâ??s the philosophy behind this record. Some of the visual artists that we admire the most will deliberately limit themselves to working within one particular medium, and we took a similar approach for this recording.
We hope you like the music, and as always, thank you for listening. We will be performing live in 2008, and there will be more news to come on that in the coming months. Hope to see some of you in person this year.

I'm really hoping that they play around in Baltimore or DC. Love these guys!
For Hammock beginners, start with their debut CD called "Kenotic". Quite stunning!

The Sword's new album has leaked. And it is awesome with a capital XXX
For you Stephen Malkmus and Jicks fans, Matador has another one of their "Buy Early Get Now" promos going on for the new CD. I picked up at the New Pronographers show the Challengers: Executive Edition which was a set of CDRs on which to burn all the b-sides, live tracks, etc from the album. Including the iTMS exclusive tracks. Made available for download in both high quality MP3 and FLAC.
Wish more record companies where as forward thinking as Matador, I'd be willing to pay up front for extras vs having to pony up again later for some expanded edition.
A similiar offer is available for the SM&J CD..
- Stream of the entire album on the Buy Early Get Now site NOW
- 2 b-sides exclusive to this promotion NOW
- Full live show recorded on December 21, 2007 at Doug Fir in Portland
- All other b-sides and/or exclusive tracks related to this record (posted on the BEGN site 90 days after street date.)
- Poster for "Real Emotional Trash" (to be picked up or shipped on street date - Tues. March 4th. with the record.)
