Photo by Sarahanah/ Hooves on the Surf One of the best things about music blogs is (re)discovering old, random gems, that link two of your favorite bands in the world together. It happens more often than you imagine. This time, I owe buckets of gratitude to We All Want Someone To Shout For for bringing Arcade Fire’s cover of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs’ “Maps” back in my life. There was a time when this cover was a fixture in my daily playlists, but between new laptops and iTunes library transfers, it was somehow lost and I forgot all about it. I wanted to take ...

King of Leon have September 22 [UK] and 23 [US] set as the release dates for Only by the Night their fourth album. The album's third track, "Sex on Fire", will be the lead off single and it easily outshines an earlier free MP3 offering found on the band's website of the new record's second track, "Crawl". Today I bring you a couple of songs off of the band's Day Old Belgian Blues EP. Released in June of 2006 it gives the listener a stellar live recording from a 2004 show at Belgium's AB Box (Ancienne Belgique). molly's chambers [ mp3 ] taper jean ... Read Full Story

Spoon - Well-Alright “Well-Alright” sounds like classic, old school Spoon, with it’s thumpin’, toe-tappin’ bassline and Britt Daniel’s jerky vocal delivery. This easily makes it one of Dark Was The Night ’s most fun songs. On the compilation, it follows Sufjan Steven’s 10 minute epic “You Are The Blood.” I’ve never thought of using Spoon as a pallet cleanser, but the DwtN people did and it worked out pretty great. Listen to “Well-Alright” below: Spoon - Well-Alright Arcade Fire - Lenin If you’re an avid Arcade Fire fan like myself, I know you’re just dying to hear anything new from this band. They’re currently ... Read Full Story

Let’s start off with the Beastie Boys. The boys are finishing up their 8th studio album, and its apparently shaping up to be a “pretty weird” one, says lead rapper Adam Yauch. Far from their all-instrumental album The Mix-Up, this one includes “a lot of rhyming and playing and sampling — all combined.” It should be pretty cool…thanks to Entertainment Weekly for the heads-up. The Yeah Yeah Yeahs’ new album was prematurely evaluated over at Stereogum , and they seem to like it. A lot. Judging from the first two singles, I think PMA is going to like it, too. James Taylor is working ... Read Full Story

It looks like Richard Kelly — director of The Box, which features a score composed by Arcade Fire's Win Butler and Regine Chassagne and Final Fantasy's Owen Pallett — wasn't kidding: Arcade Fire are indeed recording new material. Arcade Fire member Richard Reed Parry confirmed as much in an interview with online publication The Quietus this week. "I am... doing some recording in a studio — Arcade Fire stuff," Parry said.

Perhaps not content with inspiring Where The Wild Things Are or doing an original soundtrack for Richard Kelly's possibly ridiculous horror flick The Box ("I seriously thought Cameron Diaz was doing that thing where you put on an exaggerated Southern accent as a joke!" -Videogum.com), it looks like maybe Arcade Fire are working on a Neon Bible followup. At least that's what TwentyFourBit's trying to piece together. Hey, nice new press photo...

Peter Gabriel will release a covers album titled Scratch My Back sometime next year. The disc, which doesn't yet have a release date, features orchestral "reinterpretations" of songs by the likes of Arcade Fire, Radiohead, David Bowie, Talking Heads, The Kinks, Lou Reed and others. (No, there aren't any Vampire Weekend songs on it.) Nice to see Gabriel's not letting his Phil Collins connection rub off on him and affect his musical taste...

Back in October 2005, Vice Records released a song called “Do They Know It’s Hallowe’en?” to benefit UNICEF (and to poke fun at the patronizing attitude of “Do They Know It’s Christmas?”). The band that recorded it was called the “North American Hallowe’en Prevention Initiative,” and its list of members from the U.S. and Canada included:...
