Sleigh Bells - Crown On The Ground
Corinthians accidentaly set fire to the Paulista trophy whilst celebrating winning the championship.
The Dead Weather - Are Friends Electric?
A band consisting of Allison Mosshart (VV) from The Kills on vocals, Jack Lawrence from The Raconteurs on bass, Dean Fertita from Queens of the Stone Age, and Jack White on the drums.
Jack White loves playing in theses supergroups. This cover is brilliant though, it sounds weird and beamed in from a kind of dusty 1960’s session.
Police assault at G20 protest results in innocent man’s death. After Menezes this is not good for the Met. And they initially said they didn’t even touch him. He has his hands in his pockets. Fuckers.
The Big Pink - Velvet
4AD’s newest bright young things bring to mind Curve, Swervedriver and a million Alan Moulder bands. The Big Pink add grittier drums to the sound but the whirry narcotic quality is intact. If you remember this sound from the first time around you’ll love this, and if this is the first time you’ve encountered Shoegaze you’ll love it too, either way, get ready to love it.
