The Dead Weather - ‘Treat Me Like Your Mother’ One of my favourites off this supergroup’s new album, Horehound, and it now comes hand-in-hand with a seriously excellent video featuring Alison ‘VV’ Mosshart and Jack White duking it out.

artistspaid: allisonweiss: Alright. This is amazing. Could Amanda Palmer be any more of a badass? No. But I must say that I believe her Twitter success goes beyond simply using the service. It’s because (a) She is Amanda Palmer (b) she treats her fans like friends (c) Her goal with Twitter is not to make money. I’m afraid people will read this article and think they should jump on the...

Dappled Cities - ‘Holy Chord’ (Take-Away Show, La Blogotheque) This is still probably one of my favourite Dappled songs. This version is fantastic, and despite the odd setting (a playground), it highlights just how much fun Dappled’s live performances are.

NOOOOOOOOOOO
tarts: A sad message to all our friends Dear Friends, There’s no easy way to put this, so please accept our apologies for the seemingly abrupt nature of this post. We are saddened to announce that after sixteen years as The Lucksmiths, the band has decided to break up. The last few years have been an uphill battle in many ways, so this isn’t a hasty decision based on any falling-out between...

'Further Complications' by Jarvis Cocker |... →
I was sent this link earlier today by Andy Ryan of yourgigs.com.au. Spinner is streaming Jarvis’ new album, Further Complications. Give it a listen to, it’s fantastic. Much more of an engaging album than his first eponymous solo record, Andy contests it sounds almost like a sort of sequel to His’N’Hers, in the way it is an exploration of “love’n’things”.
