| Mastodon
& Friends |
punkbands reports: Mastodon recently spoke
to MTV about their upcoming major label debut for Warner. The record is
the follow up to 2004's Leviathan and their first for the major label.
The band enlisted the aid of a number of like minded musicians including
Scott Kelly of Neurosis, Mars Volta keyboardist Ikey Owens, and Mars Volta
frontman Cedric Bixler Zavala, who sings on "The Siberian Divide." Though
the band wouldn't reveal the entire "plot" of the album, they did explain
that it "will revolve around an unnamed citizen's ascension to the apex
of a snowcapped mountain." [see full story for more]-

| Sex
Awards |
Rockdirt reports: The Sun reports that next
year, ITV want the Brit Awards organizers to book acts with more edge,
with '70s punk gods the Sex Pistols topping the wish list. "We don't have
the outrageous behavior we used to," an insider said. "That is because
we don't have acts on such as Oasis. We tend to focus on the biggest bands
of the year. It's not our fault those were James Blunt and Coldplay. We're
looking at injecting the show with more drama. [see full story for more]-

Karma |
Metal Blade reports: Cattle Decapitation is
happy to announce Karma.Bloody.Karma as the title of the next record.
NO, there is not any religious significance
of the title. NO, the name does not imply that we're "crazy vegans" trying
to push our lifestyle onto people (as a lot of gabbing internet idiots
like to pigeonhole us as). It is simply about the "greatest natural disaster
of all time," humanity, and revenge for its effect on this planet. This
will be the most nihilistic, pessimistic and hateful record we've ever
done lyrically, and musically you can expect, what one of our friends has
said perfectly about it, a very "schizophrenic" release! Imagine the Caninus
split material, just longer in every way. Karma.Bloody.Karma features guest
appearances by Jo ey Karam (The Locust) and Jo hn Wiese (Sunn0))), Bastard
Noise) and was produced by Billy Anderson (Swans, Mr. Bungle, Melvins).
Available July 2006! [see full story for the goddamn track list]-

Silly |
Press Release reports: Somewhere in a recording
studio in Toronto, Canada, David Trusz and Johanne Williams are waking
to the sound of a click track. They are using the heat generated by vintage
synthesizers to keep warm, and the warm glow of three computer screens
to guide their way. Their skin is pale from a lack of sunlight and their
retinas have Pro Tools waveforms permanently burned in. Entrenched in a
throwback operation of sorts, Trusz and Williams represent Canada's latest
electronic music export, Sissy, and they are on a mission to fight the
digital revolution. Sissy's debut album, All Under, is set for release
this spring, licensed to GU Music.
Creating music and lyrics based on pure,
raw emotion, Sissy exploit the best of new school technology, while leaning
heavily on older gear and instruments for their unique character and color.
Moogs and Oberheims rumble, tape delay machines echo into oblivion while
vocals weave in, out, through, under, and above. Dark, moody foundations
serve Williams' distinctive vocal and clever songwriting, nowhere more
evident than the album's first single, "I See You", an eerie, prog/electro
driver slowed down 20 bpm.[see full story for more]- Click
