'Razors.Out'  is the lead track from the new soundtrack for the film The Raid: Redemption, which was scored by Linkin Park/Fort Minor rapper Mike Shinoda and musician Joe Trapanese. This number, a moody electro-rock ballad, features guest vocals from The Deftones/Team Sleep  frontman Chino Moreno. It’s a heavily dramatic song that occasionally dips into dubstep theatrics. Mostly, though, it makes us wistful for the next Deftones album.

Fingers crossed...

This is the second set of Radiohead inspired art.

I am skier.  I ski for fun because I live in Maine, and skiing is probably the funnest of the winter sports for me.  But I can't go out with just a boring old helmet...so why not make a Radiohead-inspired helmet?  I don't know!  So here's my Radiohead inspired helmet.

You're not dreaming. It's finally happening. Wayne Coyne of The Flaming Lips has finally dropped the bomb that we've been anticipating since January. Record Store Day will be the day that Lips will be releasing a double-LP with jams that feature some old friends and some new ones. 

It's called The Flaming Lips And Heavy Fwends (yes...that says Fwends). Featured on the comp is a diverse array of folks including Nick Cave, Chris Martin, Lightning Bolt, Yoko Oko, Ke$ha (eeewwwwww!!!), and Bon Iver, who you can hear on the track 'Ashes In The Air' below while you peruse the lyrics. The video also has some pages from the lyrical wonderbook Wanye so meticulosuly maintains.

Should have 86'ed that Kesha joint....

My drawings are inspired by Radiohead songs, even if they seem to have nothing to do with the song.

I put a song on repeat,

and Go For It.

The Hunger Games is breaking records (the largest non-sequel debut ever) with its early box office performance, and critics say it’s pretty good too! The soundtrack is also expected to top the Billboard charts next week, which is fun news for Arcade Fire, whose 'Abraham's Daughter' appears. Win Butler and Régine also contribute the orchestral work 'Horn Of Plenty' to the film’s score. We’ve got the full Panem Anthem below, but first here’s Win discussing the track with EW:

“We were interested in making music that would be more integral in the movie, just as a mental exercise. And there’s an anthem that runs throughout the books, the national anthem of the fascist Capitol. So as a thought experiment, we tried to write what that might sound like. It’s like the Capitol’s idea of itself, basically. It’s not a pop song or anything– more of an anthem that could be playing at a big sporting event like the Games. So we did a structure for that, and then James Newton Howard made a movie-score version of it that happens in several places in the film."

 

Epic Cool...

I think everything would be more epic and awesome with theme music....

 

Best Coast’s leadoff single to their new record is the title track 'The Only Place', a lovelorn ode to lead surf-swagger-singer Bethany Costentino's home state. “Why would you live anywhere else?” she asks, and then she lists some reasons why you wouldn’t want to live anywhere else (spoiler: the beach!). She’s definitely sticking to that rendering of a California road map + animal characters motif, you’ll notice. Sufjan Stevens and many others known to do this. In any case, get some music below. You know the drill.

I wish I had a girlfriend...too much information?

i just can't love the country which judgement system could let that happen

i'll go learn French. it's just a kind of therapy.

learning French (by myself, though) makes me feel... better. just better.

having an extremely huge desire to visit Radiohead concert this summer. However, it's not a desire - just a wish, just a dream that will never happen.

when your priorities grow, you just don't feel youre doing smth outstanding and you're so surprised when you learn other people that don't related to you any way admire you and how is it called praise you. and you're just talking about your plans, about your school, about your likes and dislikes and you don't see any amazing thing in it.

it's normal, but it is surprising in some way. as an example, you read your old blog and you see your post about how you wish to have a gap year which costs about $5000 and you compare it to your current wish to study at Yale University and at the best it costs $15000 per year and now you don't find $5000 as much EXTREMELY GREAT sum of money as you've considered it earlier.

it's normal.

or when you think you can reach success and you'll enter HSE and then, when some years pass, you will be able to think-n-talk in English, French and Spanish (when your native is Russian) and you'll sent your mom and siblings to Scandinavia and you'll earn about $3000 per month after university and you don't need anything but this.

it's normal.

when your priorities grow, you grow.

Besides playing with The Joy Formidable tomorrow 3/28 at the best venue in the city [Terminal 5, of course!], A Place To Bury Strangers has a new album out, 'Onwards Towards The Wall'which deserves some honorable mentioning.

If you dig The National, Depeche Mode and Black Angels then these guys are for you. Dark, synth-laden tracks which are perfect to get your despair on. Robert Smith would want you to.

Check out some tracks from new album, including some remixes courtesy of School Of Seven Bells and The Clapp.

Thom Yorke With PJ Harvey - This Mess We’re In

¿Puedes oirlos?
¿Los helicopteros?
Estoy en New York
No necesito palabras ahora
Nos sentamos en silencio
Me miras
Directo a los ojos
Me encuentras
Creo que es Miércoles
El atardecer
El lío en el que estamos

El sol de la ciudad se pone sobre mí

Noche y día
sueño de
hacer el amor
contigo nena
Hacer el amor
En la pantalla
Sueño imposible
Y he visto
La salida del sol
Sobre el río
La autopista
Recordando
El lío en el que estamos

El sol de la ciudad se pone sobre mí

¿Qué estabas deseando?
Solo quiero decir
Nunca cambies nena
Y gracias
No creo que nos volvamos a encontrar de nuevo
Y ya debes irte
Antes de que salga el sol
Sobre los rascacielos
El pecado y
El lío en el que estamos

El sol de la ciudad se pone sobre mí

Es increible como un artista es capaz de convertir un hecho siniestro como fue la existencia de este tipo llamado "John Wayne Gacy Jr." en algo tan hermoso y oscuro como esta cancion. Pocos artistas son capaces de tal sensibilidad, y el gran Sufjan Stevens es sin ninguna duda uno de ellos.

Wis_H you a gL/orious day

John Wayne Gacy Jr

Su padre era un borracho
y su madre lloraba en la cama
doblando las camisetas de John Wayne
cuando el columpio le golpeó en la cabeza.
Los vecinos le adoraban
por su humor y su conversación.
Mirad bajo su casa,
encontrad las pocas cosas vivas, pudriéndose rápidamente, en su sueño.
Oh, los muertos.

Veintisiete personas,
quizá más, eran chicos
con sus coches, sus trabajos de verano,
Oh, Dios…

¿Eres uno de ellos?

Se disfrazaba de payaso para ellos,
con su cara pintada de blanco y rojo,
y comportándose impecablemente
en una oscura habitación sobre la cama
los besaba a todos.
Mató a diez mil personas
como en un juego de manos,
corriendo muy lejos, corriendo muy rápido hacia la muerte.
Se quitó la ropa para ellos,
puso una mordaza en sus labios,
manos quietas, besos quietos en la boca.

Y comportándome impecablemente
realmente yo soy como él.
Mira bajo las tablas de la casa
en busca de los secretos que mantengo escondidos.

EL PATIO Y EL ARBOL / LA FLOR Y EL FRUTO

No es el mismo patio ni es el mismo limonero
de aquellos días finales.
El patio, sin gente, dejó de ser.
El limonero, solitario, también murió.
Quizá porque sus frutos ya no tenían destino
y sus flores, nadie que las contemplara.
Patio y limonero fueron escenario y testigo
de aquella tarde de dolor y de muerte.
Pero el patio volvió a sentir pasos;
tristes pero amables
y un nuevo limonero perfumó el aire,
y sus frutos, son señal de nueva vida
y sus flores de eterna belleza.
