New Morgan Geist Song – “Most of All” – feat. Jeremy Greenspan (Junior Boys)

http://www.thefader.com/articles/2008/7/25/audio-morgan-geist-f-jeremy-greenspan-junior-boys-most-of-all

This song was originally released as the A-side of a 12″ on Morgan Geist’s Environ label two years ago, but we’ve just been given it in advance of Geist’s forthcoming album Double Night Time, which has been in steady rotation since we got it. It’s his first album in nearly a decade, after some time focusing on Metro Area with Darshan Jesrani, and along with that 12″s B-side, “Skyblue Pink”, the album is full of super poppy, almost r&b-ish lite jams that, if we did this kind of thing, would be perfect for sipping froo-froos in an infinity pool somewhere really expensive. Or you can just rock it while you soak your buns in a puddle. It’s an album that spans the divide between New York’s two classes: Ballers Out of Control and Everyone Else. It comes out in October, but you can catch Geist and his Environ bros maxing at PS 1 in Queens in a few weeks if you can’t wait that long.

Exclusive Pitchfork Media Video Premier “Salt, Peppa, and Spinderella” by Johnny Foreigner

http://pitchfork.tv/node/1450

“Salt, Peppa, and Spinderella” is just one of the 13 tracks on Johnny Foreigners debut album Waited Up ‘Til It Was Light that comes out this October on Nettwerk. Already garnering huge buzz in the UK, this trio combines indie punk guy/girl vocals with feverish guitar lines to showcase their undeniable energy and talent. With NME, Kerrang! Rock Sound and Drowned in Sound going nuts about their sound, the album release comes on the heels of a head-turning performance at SXSW 2008 and a string of highly successful tours with artists that include Los Campesinos! Young Knives, and Idlewild.

 “Forward-thinking young guitar-slingers…turbo-charged, noisy and downright promising.” – NME

CHIODOS – announce co-headline fall tour with MOTION CITY SOUNDTRACK

With frontman Craig Owens appearing on the latest cover of Alternative Press–for the second time in less than a year (October 2007, September 2008)–Flint, MI’s CHIODOS continue to gain momentum, almost a year after the release of their hugely successful second album BONE PALACE BALLET. Released in September 2007 on indie label Equal Vision Records, the album debuted at #5 on Billboard’s Top 200 Album Chart. Critical praise for their compelling post-hardcore music–from outlets, including New York Times, Blender, Billboard, Hollywood Reporter, Revolver, Village Voice and UK’s Kerrang! (see quotes below)–has helped bolster sales of the set to over 157,000 copies.

A mainstay on the road, with international appearances spanning clubs, arenas and major rock festivals, CHIODOS has announced their latest tour: a co-headlining fall U.S. trek with Motion City Soundtrack. Set to kick off September 22 in Louisville, KY, the band will bookend the tour with headlining shows across the continental U.S., Alaska and Mexico. Tickets for the tour go on sale to the public Friday, July 25, check www.myspace.com/chiodos for more information.

CHIODOS have also announced they will release a special edition of BONE PALACE BALLET due out this fall; the CD will include brand new songs and a 30-minute teaser of their upcoming concert DVD, title TBA, coming in early 2009.

LOST BOYS THE TRIBE soundtrack available July 22 on Artists’ Addiction Records

Head over to AOL now to stream the Lost Boys The Tribe soundtrack in its entirety: http://music.aol.com/songs/new_releases_full_cds.

Be sure to pick up a copy of the CD when it hits stores tomorrow!

 A 1987 cult hit, The Lost Boys’ soundtrack is arguably one of the most beloved movie soundtracks of the last 20 years. Armed with great, eerie songs that fit perfectly opposite the little film with a big bite, the soundtrack to the much anticipated sequel, Lost Boys The Tribe, delivers just the same.  

Helping to create a soundtrack worthy of it’s well-respected predecessor, the Lost Boys The Tribe soundtrack includes AIDEN covering the classic anthem “Cry Little Sister” while THE VON BONDIES offer up “Only To Haunt You,” a never-before heard cut from their new album Love Hate And Then There’s You. Others include Dave Gahan of Depeche Mode fame, as well as the revamped Blind Melon.  

Previously unreleased tracks include Aiden’s cover of “Cry Little Sister,” as well as Seether’s live acoustic rendition of “Burrito” and G.Love & Special Sauce’s “Long Way Down,” and The Von Bondies’ “Only To Haunt You.”

Says Aiden singer wiL Francis: “When we were approached to be a part of the new Lost Boys movie I was beside myself. Being such a fan of the original I could hardly set my excitement aside. This is a great opportunity for us to pay homage and be a part of something spectacular.”

Artists‘ Addiction Records is a leader in the horror soundtrack genre, releasing the popular SAW 1-4 Soundtrack CD’s.  Says AAR President Jonathan Miller: “I’m really excited to be a part of this project. I grew up with the original movie so to be involved with the second installment is amazing. We are all thrilled with the music that has been selected for the soundtrack and movie.”
