from the onion
at this point i hate the iphone much like jerry, elaine, kramer and george hated the drake.
well, looky what we have here. i was pretty pscyed to find after waking up from nine hour slumber that a promotion company was kind enough to send me info on the upcoming adam franklin, ex-swervedriver, record. one thing i found interesting is that this is apparently his seventh non-swervedriver release? six of those being toshack highway releases. where the fuck have i been? i thought there were only like a couple. anyway, you can stream bolts of melody here. i have yet to give a whirl but the two tracks provided to me sound pretty damn good.
bolts of melody is set to be released on 6.26
in another bit of adam franklin news. he and interpol drummer sam fogarino teamed up as setting suns recently and they got some tracks on their myspace page.
just when i thought laura veirs was going to be leading lady for the 07 here comes the ukraine born alina simone to shake things up a bit. she’s not as coy/frail as ms marshall and not as overly dramatic as ms harvey but she stradles both lines quite nicely. i have only listened to her yet to be released record, placenessness, once but it left a huge impression on me - which is rare with first listens. check her out, i know you want be disappointed.
placenessness is set to be released on 8.14
tonight/this mornings offering is rem performing in stockholm, sweeden on 11.9.98 for about 400 lucky folks. this is taken from the radio broadcast of the performance.
