Is anyone else excited for School Of Seven Bells' new album Ghostory next month? I am. And to show how excited they are as well, SOSB has been so kind as to deliver a second new single unto us titled 'Lafaye'. Its a dazed and fazed dancey tune that is reminiscent of The Sounds and The Joy Formidable. Which, is a very good thing.

Grab the track below. Be sure to check out the albm when it arrives 2/28.

School Of Seven Bells - Lafaye

School Of Seven Bells - The Night

Lafaye is the tormented character from the upcoming album...

Wayne Coyne is a rare breed. One of those gifted few who can turn even the wackiest idea into a reality seemingly with only sheer will and a little follow-through. But we know it takes a little bit more work than that. Last year, The Flaming Lips worked with Neon Indian on a 12'' vinyl-only EP, then set out to work with Yoko Ono & The Plastic Ono Band. But he didn't stop there. He also recorded with Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeroes and Bad Seeds frontman, Nick Cave.

Not one to take a break from his creative undertakings, Coyne recently set out to make some sweet melodies with Bon Iver [Oh yay!] and even crafted a wishlist of other musicians he hopes to work with, including: Lykke Li, Erykah Badu and..[perhaps oddest of all] Ke$ha.

He's hoping to have the multi-artist LP out sometime in April, and it seems like a very reachable timeframe considering all the hardwork he and the Lips put into their 6-hour 'Found A Star On The Ground', and then subsequently 24-hour: '7 Skies H3' song.

In the meantime, check out their joint-effort with Neon Indian.

everyone loves a good musical 'smoosh'....

I loved you the first time I laid eyes upon you

I collapsed into giggles on leather seats

shake me baby

I took some 2cb

Is it the pills or is it just me

you can't possibly love me

and now I see

how wretched the cocktails of drugs and loneliness can be.

Rip out this heart and spoon feed it back into me

I've nothing left

I am neutral

I am bereft

Fuck all that is, Fuck god and country

they wouldn't give me you

now all I'm left with is church on Sundays.

And even after all this time

I still cannot let go

pathetic I know, ravenous in longing

I pity this heart drowned in the wanting

I pity this house with mortar and bricks for every window

locks for every door

without fire escapes

without fire escapes

without fire escapes

for the poor need to die, bury the cockroach's all seeing eye.

Keep your head above water

and your boat off the rocks

these bastards keep breeding hope with their cocks

but I've no trifling need for children

no future with you

I'm the vapor in the morning

heavily medicated now and subdued

but I still lie awake, trying to forget you.

Justice is set to put out an EP of Audio, Video, Disco remixes later this month. And a while back I posted a remix of 'On N' On' by Brodinski, and Tiga’s remix of  'Canon'. Sadly, the Tiga mix was riddled with him loving all over himself. Very irritating to say the least. 

As promised, here is the brand new vocal free version. Enjoy!

WTF!!!

...and I love the floral print in your background! 

Very excited about the 2012 tour and the hopes of seeing Radiohead at the Santa Barbara Bowl!!!  The first (and only) time I've seen them prior was at the Hollywood Bowl just a few short years ago and my god, that was a stunning show - aurally, visually, you name it!  I'd always heard how amazing the shows were and found myself understanding why...and that it wasn't just smoke being blown by those lucky enough to score tickets!

Fingers crossed for 1/19 (for 4/12)!!!

Thank you again, Lady!

It's very sad knowing that henceforth there shall be no band of the moniker, LCD Soundsytem---but their legacy shall live on in the digital spectrum with a brand new film premiering at Sundance Film Festival titled, Shut Up And Play The Hits [but as James Murphy might say, 'baby we dont do hits'].

Next week, viewers lucky enough to see the debut feature from Dylan Southern & Will Lovelace will be privy to exlusive footage from the band's last show from April 2011 at Madison Square Garden, plus never-before-seen segments from their final hours, including insight into what Murphy plans to do next [such as be a chef, for starters].

Grab a look at the trailer below or HERE if it doesnt work.
