LISTEN TO YOUR HEART ~ Mike Rowland, Film by Ruedi & Priska Abbühl
Okay, it's all well and good to be totally rock and roll all the time but sometimes you just gotta chill and indulge in beauty. For that I go to my Wife, my Cats or... penguins.
Enjoy, this is GRAND.
How To Destroy Angels The Loop Closes
Pitchfork posted a link to HTDA doing a Reddit Q&A earlier today. I don't normally go in for Reddit - the site always feels too crowded with text for me to discern what exactly I'm reading. However this one's worth the effort, as especially Reznor and Ross are fascinating as usual.

Mike Patton Scores "The Place Beyond the Pines"
I'd almost forgotten about Patton's involvement in this. I'm curious about the flick, but MORE curious about the soundtrack, which was composed by none other than Mike Patton and is scheduled to be released on May 7th. I'm a big fan of Patton's other soundtrack work, most especially for the short film A Perfect Place staring Bill Moseley and Mark Boone Junior, which I believe is still available from Ipecac records as a DVD/CD set. Here's the trailer:
Sequestered
I hadn't checked my email in a couple of sdays and lookee here, the White House emailed me! I didn't even know they knew I was alive.
Seriously, I'm never going to go political with this blog, but I figured I'd post this, as since I don't know any rich cunts the sequester will probably effect people immediately around me, if not directly in my social circle (which is about ten people in diameter).

Ned's Atomic Dustbin - Kill Your Television
STILL waiting for my vinyl copy of MBV's first album in twenty-something years. STILL haven't listened to the digital tracks yet, as I'm holding out for my first listen to be an analog experience given that the band went so far out of their way to avoid digital (obviously you can't fully avoid digital, but you can read about it here). In the interim I ration my exposure to Loveless, but today I just had to get a spin on that one through. And at some point it made me think of Neds. Man, I miss Neds. Great, great band
