Slightly Stoopid Week: Day 2 |
"I Would Do For You," "Thinkin' 'Bout Cops," "Know Your Rider," "Chaunch" - KYLE: We did an album called 'Closer to the Sun'� we went in and recorded 50 or 60 songs because we were having so much fun. We had way too many for that album � we put it out as extra songs with that CD as a bonus. People ended up liking it but not being able to get it. We went in and recorded some songs with Inner Circle, added a couple of songs from here and there, and just wrapped it up.
My friend Miguel has been producing with us since we were in high school � a really talented person when it comes down to making beats or playing guitar or producing, he's ----ing sick. "I Would Do For You" was one of all our favorite UB40 songs. He put the beat down and laid the groove down on his MPC. We went to his pad and threw it all together, and finished it up. It turned out really nice.

Sex Pistol Denies Racist Beating |
Okereke claimed he had been attacked by several men after approaching Lydon backstage at the Summercase festival. He said the 'unprovoked' attack left him with a split lip and bruises.
Okereke has described how he was set upon after asking Lydon if he had considered reforming his former band, Public Image Ltd. He said the punk singer became 'intimidating and aggressive', while someone in Lydon's group told him, "your problem is your black attitude". Okereke claims he was then attacked by three members of Lydon's crew who punched him in the face and head.

Courtney Love Vs Ryan Adams |
Not only is she appalled by the theft, which was apparently part of the identity-theft issues she's been blogging about and facilitated by her ex-boyfriend/Rock N Roll producer James Barber, she's irritated that her funds were used to make such a crappy, poorly named album: "Ryan Adams worst record and one of the worst records i can think of in rock and roll history ironically called'Riock and Roll '... yeah you listen to this ---- im listening to my i tunes on right now who names a record 'Rock n Roll' what ---holes do that? ... with these trebled up guitars my bandmate said sounded like 'really horrific rem on steroids' all treble and compresssion and ---- wirtten songs - but so what?"
Love's post concluded with a call for Adams to pay back said $858k and let her know how his heroin habit was holding up. The post was picked up by the likes of Gawker over the weekend, and after deleting it she got into a bit of a back-and-forth with the commenters on that site and others who were so quick to defend Adams' music (why??) and write her off as drug-addled, crazy, etc.

Get Drunk with Dear And The Headlights |
Regarding the unique title, bassist Chuckie Duff explained "it just makes us laugh and people are free to read whatever meaning they want into it. It's just a good name for what it is - a party record."
The 12-track set was recorded with producer and friend, Bob Hoag (The Format, Limbeck), at Flying Blanket Recording in their hometown earlier this summer. "Bob has been pretty influential in the overall sound and to some degree the arrangements on this record, like he was on the last record. He kind of becomes the sixth member in the studio and that works well because we trust him and he hears things the same way we do," described guitarist, PJ Waxman.

Bleeding Through in September |
The followup to The Truth (2006) and This is Love, This is Murderous (2003), which have sold a combined quarter of a million albums worldwide, was produced by Devin Townsend in Vancouver, British Columbia. Declaration is incredibly dense, layered and full of atmosphere, recalling the finest moments of classic death metal, black metal and hardcore.
Bleeding Through has always stood for the broken-hearted and betrayed. Declaration expands further upon that idea. Contrary to earlier reports of a conceptually driven album, Bleeding Through's latest is their most diverse offering thematically, addressing a variety of topics on tracks like "There Was a Flood," "Germany" and "Death Anxiety."
