The Veil Comes Down

Now let goes outside the 313 for who makeing indie news now

And it look like Billy bragg will not be puting up his music on my space any time soon The Brit singer have pull Some of his songs on his myspace page clamnig that my space "terms of service" give Murdoch's minions the right to exploit their content as they see fit saying "once an artist posts up any content (including songs), it then belongs to MySpace (AKA Rupert Murdoch) and they can do what they want with it throughout the world without paying the artists."

But Myspace.com spokesman Jeff Berman says not to worry. "Because the legalese has caused some confusion, we are at work revising it to make it very clear that MySpace is not seeking a license to do anything with an artist's work other than allow it to be shared in the manner the artist intends," Berman says. "Obviously, we don't own their music or do anything with it that they don't want."

it a slam aginst the news Corp who last year paid way too much for the on-line solcal network (they pay $580 millions for there parent company which run myspace.com) which have endure month of bad press how kids are spooke by bad people who used my space for bad things like asking for sex on line, that bad and now some are thinking my space is so last year

The Akron/Family has just announced that they're preparing a new album, titled Meek Warrior, on Young God this September. Recorded primarily at Chicago's Shappe Shoppe, the forthcoming LP was produced by Akron/Family and Michael Gira, and engineered by Griffin Rodriguez (Need New Body, Icy Demons, Bablicon), who also plays bass on one song, "No Space in This Realm". The band also spent a day recording in Toronto with their bros from Do Make Say Think/Broken Social Scene.

The album will feature songs mostly written on the road, "in the van the few weeks prior to the studio time, while we were all freezing in the wintery hinderlands of middle Canada, wheezing with bronchitis," according to Family man Seth Olinsky.

The Chicago location presented Akron/Family with the unique opportunity to collaborate with legendary free jazz percussionist Hamid Drake. Drake, said Olinsky, was "a total dream and pleasure" to work with in the studio, as he helped "bring the music to life." Charles Waters of the Gold Sparkle Band and William Parker's Little Huey Creative Orchestra also contributed saxophone and clarinet solos to the album.

The band aims to hold a record release party at the end of September at Tonic in New York City, followed by an appearance at the Pop Montreal Festival in, uh, Montreal, as well as a few other dates in Canada. A West Coast tour is on the agenda for December, as is the recording of yet another new album in October in November. As they say, the family that plays together, stays together.


When we think Bob Mould, we think punk rock, buzzsaw guitars, Minneapolis, SST, Our Band Could Be Your Life, trucking across the country in a beat-up van, etc. In other words, we think H?D?ever, when Bob Mould thinks Bob Mould, he thinks shiny dance-pop. Or rather, when Bob Mould thinks Blowoff, his collaborative project with house music vet Richard Morel, he thinks shiny dance-pop.

Blowoff has been blowing the roof off (sorry) the Washington, DC club scene for a few years, and now they're ready to expand their boundaries. On September 5, the duo's own Full Frequency Music label will release Blowoff's self-titled debut album. According to a press release, the album is "a total 50/50 collaboration" and a "merger between two independent-minded singer-songwriters that is equal parts "angry, angular power-pop" and "hazy house-fueled electronica."

Hey, sounds like 1997! You can hear for yourself at Blowoff's website, where new songs are currently streaming.

On June 13, avant-country duo the Handsome Family are poised to release their new Carrot Top Records album, Last Days of Wonder. It's the seventh record from the husband-and-wife team of Brett and Rennie Sparks. The inspiration for many songs on Last Days of Wonder come from the tragic life of Nicola Tesla, the misunderstood inventor renowned for developing the namesake Tesla coil, devising plans for an Earth-destroying "death ray," and for providing the name for the hair metal band Tesla (if being the inspiration behind that band isn't tragic, we don't know what is).

The Sparks couple recorded the album at home, but thanks to the magic of email, Stephen Dorocke (Freakwater, Jesse Sykes) and David Coulter (Test Dept., The Pogues, Tom Waits) were able to contribute pedal steel and musical saw, respectively. In addition to the guest instrumentation and the Sparks' standard guitar, bass, and drums arrangements, Last Days of Wonder augments the Handsome Family sound with mellotron, ukulele, banjo, bowed wine glasses, and trombone sections, as well.

(Ed) and you be happy to know that Ex-Velocity Girl Sarah Shannon will release her second solo CD in the fall the 1st one was so good but she have the horrer of haveing the title of worst gig i ever been too i think it was in 2002 at the Stick only a hand full of people was at the show for her set who was not into it, the opener that night was Julie Dornin (ex-Eirc Trip) andDetroitt detroit gig and she was so good Rosie O'Thomasz.

The Detroit Free Press love this film useding the head lines:'Cars' runs on all cylinders and heart.and adding The first time you see "Cars," though, just sit back and enjoy the ride. It's so easy when you know someone who really knows how to drive, and loves it, is behind the wheel.(four out of Four)

FROM PITHCFORMEDIA.COM

Singer-songwriter and keyboardist Billy Preston died today after a long battle with illness, the Associated Press reports. Preston, 59, was one of a handful of people referred to as "the fifth Beatle" for his close relationship with the Fab Four. He suffered from kidney failure and had been in a coma since November 2005.

Preston began his career as a pre-teen prodigy, earning a role in the 1958 W.C. Handy biopic St. Louis Blues, which also featured such luminaries as Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald, Mahalia Jackson, Cab Calloway, and Eartha Kitt.

He began his recording career a few years later, issuing his debut album, Sixteen Year Old Soul for Derby in 1963. Preston's more accomplished solo efforts included The Most Exciting Organ Ever [Vee-Jay, 1965], Billy Preston [Buddah, 1969], and the two albums he recorded for the Beatles' Apple label, That's the Way God Planned It (1969) and Encouraging Words (1970). After leaving Apple, Preston enjoyed his most successful period as a solo artist, releasing three top five singles--"Outa-Space", "Will It Go Round in Circles", and "Nothing From Nothing". The latter two songs went to No. 1.

Despite that success, Preston is, oddly, perhaps best known as a studio musician-- particularly because of his work with the Beatles. The organist performed on the Beatles' "White Album" and Abbey Road and was unofficially drafted into the group by former tourmate George Harrison-- alongside whom he eventually performed at the famed Concert for Bangladesh-- for the recording and filming of Let It Be. Preston's Beatles work can be heard most prominently on "Get Back", "I Want You (She's So Heavy)", and "Don't Let Me Down". Preston also performed studio work for artists such as Sly and the Family Stone, Aretha Franklin, Bob Dylan, the Rolling Stones, Sam Cooke, and Eric Clapton.

Later in his life, Preston suffered several major indignities: being sentenced to a three-year jail term following a bail violation, performing on the Red Hot Chili Peppers' Stadium Arcadium, and, worst of all, performing as the title character in the abysmal film Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.


Rhino Records has just announced the latest round of remastered Cure and Cure-related reissues, all dolled up in hyper-deluxe two-disc packages with fancy-schmancy booklets and more bonus demos than Robert Smith has had bad hair days.

The latest round-up arrives August 8 and includes Cure albums nos. five, six, and seven-- The Top (1984), The Head on the Door (1985), and Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me (1987)-- as well as 1983's Blue Sunshine, the lone record by the Glove, the side project of Smith and Siouxsie & the Banshees bassist Steve Severin. Mega-hits and fan favorites like "In Between Days", "Why Can't I Be You?", "Just Like Heaven", and "Close to Me" were spawned during this storied era in Cure history.


As you may recall, last year Rhino graced us with expanded, remastered reissues of Seventeen Seconds, Faith, and the much-loved Pornography. At this rate we can expect a d-lux remaster of that lukewarm 2004 self-titled record by 2008. Oh boy.


on August 21 in the UK and August 22 in North America, a nice portion of Broadcast songs will resurface from the depths of OOP-land on the rarities comp Future Crayon, due out on Warp.
The collection will gather only previously-released material, but most (if not all) of the songs are on singles, EPs, and compilations that are out of print, including the first All Tomorrow's Parties comp ("DDL") from 2001 and the We Are Reasonable People compilation ("Hammer Without a Master") released way back in 1998. The rest of the selections come from singles and EPs like 1999's Echo's Answer EP, 2000's Extended Play EP, "Come On Let's Go" single, and Extended Play Two EP, and the 2003 Pendulum EP.



Camera Obscura are launching their greatly anticipated third album upon North America with the force of a million puppy dogs. Let's Get out of This Country arrives today via Merge Records, and in July the band will indeed get out of their country by launching a tour of our fair continent.

(ed.) There no detorit date yet but the Close Detroit date if you want to take the road trip:
07-28 Chicago, IL - Logan Square Auditorium
07-29 Cleveland Heights, OH - Grog Shop


Mairead Case reports:Once again, Molly Neuman has proved herself cooler than the Horses cassette tape in your big sister's glove compartment. Neuman drummed in Bratmobile, the Peechees, and the Frumpies, co-owns Lookout! Records, and currently manages the Donnas, Ted Leo, Some Girls and the Locust. Now, she's announced the birth of her new label, Simple Social Graces Disco.

"Simple Social Graces Discos is not about market share or marketing or competition or winning," Neuman said in a press release. "We are about love and friends and ruling." (Apparently, they're saving Angel, Music, and Baby for future campaigns.)
Today, Simple Social Graces released Haranna Hanne, the U.S. debut from Barcelona metal-punks Les Aus. Bandmates Arnau Sala and Mau Boada played in the now-defunct Omega Cinco, a, like, totally important Gold Standard Laboratories band that your sister, like, totally told you about five years ago.


Recently, you might have seen Les Aus opening for Ted Leo/Pharmacists. Not so coincidentally, Simple Social Graces will release Leo's next single, as well as albums from L.A.'s Fast Forward, and Madrid's Grabba Grabba Tape and Campamento

Critical darlings Yo La Tengo (also known as the pride of Hoboken, New Jersey), are set to unleash their 10th proper album September 12. Carrying the snotty title of I Am Not Afraid Of You And I Will Beat Your Ass, it seems that the legendary trio are proving that being around for 20-plus years doesn't get rid of youthful arrogance. The band remains mum on the tracklist, but have 15 songs slated. The Matador website is offering a free MP3 of "Beanbag Chair" to tide fans over. For those needing a fix of Ira, Georgia and James ASAP, the band did release their WFMU-solicited covers album, Yo La Tengo Is Murdering The Classics, earlier this spring. The band is also set to play Prospect Park in Brooklyn July 13.


Doves have begun recording their follow-up to 2005’s Some Cities on a farm outside of Manchester. The band has started posting photos of themselves working in the studio on their weblog and said, "We've been in there for a couple of weeks now, mainly setting gear up and ironing out our usual technical problems!" They say the plan is to record everything at the farm studio and mix and produce the album themselves, but note, "That could all change if we get sick of the smell of cow shit on the farm."The British threesome added, "It's very early days so don't expect anything too soon, but there's loads of ideas kicking around and we're all well excited about where we're going to go on this one." They also confirmed that the band will not be performing for the rest of the year to concentrate on the new record.

And yes The Tigers are back in action with a big Three Game set with The Chicago White Sox winner of this series will take the lead in the central


Detroit, 37-20, (The Leaders )
