The video is a little weird, but the song is incredible.

In The Unlikely Event - The Fall of Troy

The Fall of Troy's new album, In the Unlikely Event, came out today. Definitely look for a review within the next week or so. As an avid Fall of Troy fan, it'll take me some time to get an objective look and push past any fanaticism during the early listens.

Sounding great to me so far...

Them Crooked Vultures to Be Awesome?

So, Queens of the Stone Age are definitely one of my favorite bands...and half of the early line up for that band is getting back together. Josh Homme and Dave Grohl have teamed up with John Paul Jones (that's right, the Led Zeppelin John Paul Jones) and Alain Johannes to create a hell of a supergroup.

They supposedly are recording now, but they've done several "secret" shows around the world. Here's a clip from one of them:



I really like the beginning and end, but the middle is kind of...boring. Hopefully they'll make some more energetic music, because they certainly have the talent.

Electro Sunday

So out of sheer boredom, I decided to toss up a the songs I'm feeling of late from particular genres. Here's what I've got for Electronica today:

Binarpilot - Goof



Deadmau5 - Ghosts n stuff



Justice - Genesis



Justice - Waters of Nazareth



Justice - Phantom Pt. II (Soulwax Remix)



Digitalism - Home Zone



Digitalism - Zdarlight



Daft Punk - Touch It/Technologic (Alive 2007)



Darft Punk - Harder Better Faster Stronger/Around the World (Alive 2007 Radio Edit)



Daft Punk - Too Long (Alive 2007)





That should be a good start. Tell me what you noobs think.

Enjoy.

White Stripes Movie Trailer + Killers DVD


Two interesting tidbits about performance DVDs were revealed today.

First, the White Stripes posted a trailer for their upcoming movie, Under the Great White Northern Lights. The movie premiered on the 18th at the Toronto Film Festival. I have no idea what it's about or when it will be widely released, but here's the trailer:



Additionally, The Killers are releasing a DVD, Live From The Royal Albert Hall, on November 10th. The DVD includes the full show, as well as some bonus performances and behind-the-scenes interviews and whatnot. Somehow I doubt it will convey the same grandeur and pomp as actually seeing them in person, but it should be worth a watch.

Rush Making a 19th Album

That's right, Geddy Lee and crew are supposedly heading back into the recording studio to lay down a 19th album.

Article/Blog thing

I really wasn't a fan of Snakes and Arrows, but maybe they can redeem themselves here.

Hey, It's Music Related...

Hilarious video. This firmly support my suspicions that Lady Gaga would have horrendous sounding live music...the act could be interesting though. At least good for a laugh.

EDIT: The HTML for the video embed had a missing bracket, and I don't feel like digging through it to find it. Lazy link to the rescue
