**New Track From Thom Yorke**

Thom Yorke has a side project called 'Atoms For Peace' which features one of the coolest bassists on the entire planet - Flea, from the Red Hot Chili Peppers. The level of coolness is off the charts with this one. 

The debut album from Atoms for Peace is called 'Amok' and it's going to be released some time in late February.

This track is called 'What The Eyeballs Did'. The beat, the bass, the song... it's freaking amazing.





Enjoy.

Songs of The Week!!!

Here's a few songs I have on repeat right now.

Queens Of The Stone Age ~ Go With The Flow - Oh how this song reminds me of the game 'Rock Band'!!!!


A former colleague in Calgary was telling me how a friend of hers had boinked Josh Homme when he came through Cow Town a couple of months ago. The dude is married and has a couple of kids. Douche!!! My crush on the 'Ginger Elvis' has died. Last I heard, he was still texting the hussy on a regular basis. SOOOO LAME!

Jaydiohead ~ A cool mix of Jay-Z and Radiohead. Believe it.


And speaking of Jay-Z...

Kayne West & Jay-z ft. Frank Ocean ~ No Church In The Wild - This song has such a wicked beat.



Mark Ronson ~ Amy - Mark Ronson is the bees knees. He worked with Amy Winehouse on her music and they became super close friends. Is this a song for her??? No idea. Wicked tune though.


Fiona Apple ~ Paper Bag - Whatever happened to Fiona Apple? Seriously??? Well she's released a few albums since her glory days in the late 90's and rumour had it that she was supposed to release a new album she worked on with Michelle Branch this past spring Still... Nada. What gives?



Lil Wayne ~ How To Love - Soooooo gooOOOooood!



Erykah Badu ~ Bag Lady - A song about ladies carrying around all that useless emotional baggage.
Pack light.


My sister is a photographer (here's her site, if you're interested!) and this song inspired this pic for one of her projects.  Thank GAD for photoshop!


Enjoy!

Happy Birthday Thom Yorke!!!

Feliz Cumpleaños Thom Yorke!!!

Let's take a moment to celebrate the glory that is Thom.



He's born October 7th, 1968 in Wellingborough, Northamptonshire. (Does this mean he can say he was born in 'The Shire'????). Ha.

So what's the deal with the eye? THE EYE!!!! Well according to Wiki (and Wiki never lies right? Right?...) " At birth, his left eye was fixed shut; the doctors determined that the eye was paralyzed and that the condition was permanent. Yorke's parents took him to an eye specialist, who suggested a muscle graft. Yorke underwent five eye operations before he was six years old.Yorke's father, a chemical equipment salesman, was hired by a firm in Scotland shortly after his son's birth and the family lived there until Yorke was seven. During this time Yorke had to wear a patch over his eye^. He has stated that the last surgery was "botched," giving him a drooping eyelid."

Well that sucks.

This guy is practically a GOD in the music world. He's been named one of the most influential / powerful figures in the music industry and one of the greatest artists of all time. Obviously this means tons of musicians are going to want to work with the guy, right? The list of rejected musical collaboration hopefuls include Jack Black, Miley Cyrus (huh??? Thank GAD!) and Kanye West.
OooooOOOOooooohhhhh Buuuuuurn!

Thom Yorke Quotes:  “I want to be alone and I want people to notice me — both at the same time”
“And I know I'm paranoid and neurotic, I've made a career out of it.”

Love the line in the thread for this music video that says, "Thom Yorke doesn't try to dance; dance tries to Thom Yorke."
