| Born
From Pain Lineup change |
Metal Blade reports: Sadly we announce that,
in common agreement, Born From Pain and guitarist Stefan van Neerven will
go their separate ways. Stefan's personal situation has forced both the
band and him to reconsider his role in the band with, eventually, the abovementioned
outcome. Naturally, we wish him all the best for the future and hope to
keep him as close to the band as possible. Stefan's long-time stand-in
Dominik Stammen (Zero Mentality) will take up the role of steady guitarist
for Born From Pain as off now. Dominik as well as Stefan will play their
last shows for their current bands in February.[see full story for more]-

Soundtracks? |
Press Release reports: Fade In, the movie
magazine known for its comprehensive behind-the-scenes Hollywood filmmaking
news and interviews, offers its picks for the 25 Best Movie Soundtracks

Hustle & Flow: "Gangsta raps�bristle
with raw anger and brute conviction � the kind forged on the street, not
in a studio."
Elizabethtown: "Classic-rock heartwarmers
like Elton John�alongside largely unknown but equally compelling voices
such as indie-rock trio Helen Stellar."
Good Night, and Good Luck: "Heavy on ballads
and mournful melodies selected by film director�George Clooney, the set
is straight out of the pop-standards playbook: Duke Ellington, Jerome Kern�"
Rize: "[D]eftly mixes the hip with the
holy, dropping righteous raps and frenzied beats alongside stirring gospel
celebrations�"
Kingdom of Heaven: "[A] richly rewarding
score�where [composer Harry Gregson-Williams] incorporates tribal drums,
ouds, and other ethnic instrumentation�"- Click

| Goldfrapp
Release |
Special Ops reports: Goldfrapp's highly anticipated
third full-length release Supernature will finally be in stores stateside
on March 7th. Through pioneering electronics, crystalline vocals, visual
theatrics and glam-sex decadence, Goldfrapp has all the hallmarks of classic
British pop music. After Felt Mountain (2000), their Mercury Award nominated
debut, their second album - the Brit nominated Black Cherry - was the benchmark
of 2003. Its two euphoric, electro-stomp anthems, "Train" and "Strict Machine"
were that year's peak of class-pop cool. As a British duo who writes and
produces everything together, the new album, Supernature is the sound of
Goldfrapp breaking through their own crash barrier, an uncompromising creative
force at the top of their very own game. [see full story for a preview]-
