Atoms For Peace, the new project from Thom Yorke, today reveal a stunning new video. ‘Ingenue’ is taken from Atoms For Peace’s new album Amok, which was released this week on XL Recordings. Directed by Garth Jennings, the video features dancers Thom Yorke and Fukiko Takase performing a routine choreographed by Wayne McGregor. Jennings and McGregor previously worked with Thom on Radiohead’s ‘Lotus Flower’ video.

Following a sold out event at east London’s Oval Space on Friday, two further Amok launch events are set to take place in Berlin (Berghain, 8th March) and New York (Le Poisson Rouge, 14th March). Each event will feature a performance from Thom and Nigel Godrich, lightheartedly described by Thom as “two turntables & a microphone” on Twitter. The nights will also feature full lineups of very special guests. Full details below:

Iggy & The Stooges, Press Releases

IGGY AND THE STOOGES: READY TO DIE OUT APRIL 30 ON FAT POSSUM RECORDS

Available For Pre-Order At
http://fatpossum.com/products/ready-to-die

“a real fucking group… they also make fucking records. They don”t just go and twiddle around on stage to make a bunch of fucking money”–Iggy Pop

Better 40 years later than never: The follow-up to the first record ever to bear the Iggy and the Stooges logo–the immortal proto-punk masterpiece Raw Power–will finally be out April 30, when Fat Possum Records releases the all-new Iggy and the Stooges studio album, Ready To Die.

Ready To Die finds Iggy Pop, guitarist James Williamson and drummer Scott “Rock Action” Asheton reunited for a full album of all-new material for the first time since the legendary Raw Power sessions, with Mike Watt filling in for the late Ron Asheton on bass. The results are the closest thing to a time capsule to 1973–or at least to Iggy”s subsequent efforts with Williamson, including 1977″s Kill City and 1979″s New Values–that rock “n” roll is likely to proffer in this millennium. The new album”s opening one-two of “Burn” and “Sex & Money” pair sublimely blunt and self-explanatory subject matter with back alley razor-blade guitars and a troglodytic rhythmic stomp as intensely single-minded as Iggy”s lyrical statements of intent. Elsewhere on the album, anthems abound in the form of the most dead-on rallying cry for the lower-working-class dispossessed to date–the succinctly and aptly titled “Job”–as well as a title track that mixes a signature Iggy Pop mission statement of angry desperation with guitar pyrotechnics that recall those halcyon opening salvos of “Search & Destroy.”

Just as Iggy exhumed the original Stooges name when he reunited in 2003 with the Asheton brothers, the revival of the Iggy and the Stooges moniker that first appeared on the cover of Raw Power heralded the return of guitarist James Williamson to the fold in 2009, or as Iggy put it then “although “the Stooges” died with Ron Asheton, there is still “Iggy and the Stooges”.” As far as the decision to record and release a new Iggy and the Stooges album for the first time since 1973, Iggy recently commented:

“My motivation in making any record with the group at this point is no longer personal. It”s just a pig-headed fucking thing I have that a real fucking group when they”re an older group they also make fucking records. They don”t just go and twiddle around on stage to make a bunch of fucking money…”

Iggy and the Stooges will begin the Ready To Die live assault shortly. Stay tuned for coordinates.

PUSH THE SKY AWAY OUT NOW

“His excellent new album is full of cinematic detail and gorgeously dark sonic dread” The Must List,  Entertainment Weekly

A rare Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds’ live stream performance from the Fonda Theatre, Los Angeles TONIGHT will be hosted on the newly launched Rockfeedback Youtube channel. This exclusive sold out show marks this weeks release of the new album ‘Push The Sky Away’ worldwide. This will be the only show of it’s kind in North America.

**watch the trailer here**

The release of ‘Push The Sky Away’ has been met with mass critical acclaim. Critics across the globe are hailing Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds’ 15th album as among their greatest:

“His excellent new album is full of cinematic detail and gorgeously dark sonic dread” ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY, THE MUST LIST

“Push the Sky Away” is yet another gem in a long string of fiercely literate offerings from the poet laureate of post-punk.”  ASSOCIATED PRESS

“Push the Sky Away presents an uncharacteristically weightless, eerily atmospheric sound; we have foggy reveries built upon ominously rumbling bass lines, twitchy rhythmic tics, and hushed-voice intimations”  PITCHFORK

“Push the Sky Away may be broken into nine pieces, but the whole is paced like one magnificent 43-minute Nick Cave song: tense and mysterious at first, then increasingly full-blooded and lovely” NPR

“the fundamental power of his music has been surprisingly steady for decades now. And so Push The Sky Away is merely one more very good album in a long, long string of them.” STEREOGUM – ALBUM OF THE WEEK

“…predictably unpredicatable in “Push The Sky Away” … an unshakeable feeling and a belief that rock ‘n’ roll “gets you right down to your soul”  THE LOS ANGELES TIMES

““Push the Sky Away” merges the erotic and the ominous in a cocoon of electronic loops, sparse keyboards, murmured voices, and post-3 a.m. narratives.”  CHICAGO TRIBUNE

“captivating” THE BOSTON GLOBE

“Along with a special lyrical acuity comes some of the most textured music they’ve yet produced, making this latest album one of the strongest in the band’s discography.”PASTE

“the hair-raising point at which pop sugar gets gleefully poisoned by demon blues.ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY

“With a stately baritone shaped mostly by cigarettes and a love of Johnny Cash, Cave narrates tales of fleshy temptation as his longtime band the Bad Seeds, play hushed, barbed prairie ballads.” – PLAYBOY MAGAZINE

“Seedy and slick, grandiose and intimate, mysterious and matter-of-fact, Nick Cave’s songs unfold like short stories from bygone eras”  NPR

“an unexpected late-period masterpiece, full of self-reflective humor, and jarring modern lyricism and musicality” CONSEQUENCE OF SOUND

“Push the Sky Away grabs you and pulls you down into this subterranean journey like only a Bad Seed could do.” PITTSBURGH POST GAZETTE

“Push the Sky Away is another exemplary effort from the Bad Seeds, and the moodiest entry into the Nick Cave canon in over a decade ” UNDER THE RADAR

“a gospel-like quietude infuses Push The Sky Away but there’s an emotional intensity at play as well that will leave you flattened. This, ultimately, makes the emotional devastation you experience once the record has spun all the more remarkable. I’m not embarrassed to say that on multiple occasions, Push The Sky Away has left me choking back tears” BLURT

“As always, just beyond Cave’s solemnity, there’s wicked and lovely fun to be had.” SPIN

“this album is a masterwork of spooky and hypnotic minimalism.” ASBURY PARK PRESS

“as engaging as ever” CREATIVE LOAFING

“Push the Sky Away” might just be the most beautiful album ever from Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. That doesn’t mean it’s a cheery pop adventure. Rather it’s dark, slow, tense, hushed and thoroughly enveloping. “ LINCOLN JOURNAL STAR

“Nick Cave’s funereal blues is the sound of mirth’s heart stopping. There’s a romanticism inherent in Cave’s repertoire, though, a seductiveness. Even the brightest of days give way to the darkest of nights, and it’s the latter that Cave’s music soundtracks.” – LAS VEGAS REVIEW JOURNAL

BAND OF HORSES ADD MORE DATES TO U.S. SPRING TOUR

“(Band of Horses) conjure the embroidered-blue-jean countryrock of theEagles and spike it with punk noise and a 21st-century bloodshot optimism.”–ROLLING STONE Best of 2012

Band of Horses are gearing up for a busy spring season as they continue touring in support of their widely acclaimed fourth album, Mirage Rock.

Band of Horses’ not-to-be-missed live show will feature support from openers Jake Bugg, Futurebirds, Roadkill Ghost Choir and Josh Roberts & The Hinges on select dates throughout this tour.

THIRD MAN RECORDS AND BELCOURT THEATRE TEAM UP TO PRESENT NEW FILM SERIES

Two of Nashville’s Most Beloved Institutions Join Forces to Offer Cutting-Edge Mix of New and Repertory Cinema

As the perpetually evolving landscape of media production and distribution continues to offer new opportunities for creator and consumer alike, certain aspects of how we experience and appreciate art tend to fall by the wayside. Among the most glaring examples is the notion of cinema as a communal phenomenon – of the theater as a public meeting space to indulge in acts of group-fantasy. As the market for new productions – large and small – becomes increasingly oriented to an era of digital distribution and on-demand home viewing, we lose the richness of discourse associated with sharing an emotional experience with strangers in a darkened room. The collective gasp at a third-act twist; embracing your date in a moment of fright; the heated post-film debate in the theater lobby – these are the sort of exchanges that risk endangered-status as the archetypical cinematic venue moves from the screening room to the living room.

It is with this in mind that Third Man Records has partnered with the Southeast’s flagship arthouse cinema, The Belcourt Theatre, to announce The Light And Sound Machine, a monthly film series to take place on the third Thursday of each month at Third Man’s performance space in downtown Nashville. Screenings are curated and hosted by filmmaker and critic James Cathcart, whose goal is to provide a venue for marginalized cinema, past and present, unlike any other in our city. Focusing on micro-budget productions by emerging directors, groundbreaking experimental film from all eras, and rarely screened repertory classics, each program promises a trove of curiosities for the adventurous film-goer. Presented digitally and on 16mm, the initial season’s eclectic offerings range from Dan Sallitt’s controversial yet tender 2012 feature THE UNSPEAKABLE ACT, to Kidlat Tahimik’s transcultural meditation PERFUMED NIGHTMARE (1977.)

The Light And Sound Machine’s inaugural exhibition will take place February 21st at 7pm, and will feature the bleak anti-comedy BAD FEVER (Dustin Guy Defa, 2012), preceded by the Safdie Bros.’ THE BLACK BALLOON (2012), an acerbic re-imagining of Albert Lamorisse’s classic LE BALLON ROUGE. Admission is $10. Both the director, Dustin Guy Defa, and lead actor, Kentucker Audley, of Bad Fever will be in attendance.

Though programming space is very limited, feature and short film submissions are welcome. Contact: cathcart@thirdmanrecords.com for additional information.

Tickets available for Belcourt members at a discount for $8 via the Belcourt website (www.belcourt.org), non members please purchase via Third Man (http://thirdmanstore.com/tmr-live/tickets/bad-fever-le-ballon-rouge).

BAD FEVER
A nod to the character based inquiries into the American condition that were the hallmark of 1970’s filmmaking, Dustin Guy Defa’s BAD FEVER introduces Eddie (Kentucker Audley), a psychologically fractured loner with delusions of a future in standup comedy. All but anonymous in his daily existence, he disappears into himself as  seamlessly as he does into the film’s rust-laden vistas of middle-America. His monotonous trajectory aches for intervention, which comes in the form of Irene (Eleonore Hendricks), a wayward drifter with a camcorder who subsides by sharing kinky vignettes of herself with an unseen benefactor. As their aimless lives intertwine, they inadvertently become fixtures to each other’s menageries of desperation.

THE BLACK BALLOON
An acerbic re-imagining of Albert Lamorisse’s classic children’s film LE BALLON ROUGE, Josh and Benny Safdie’s THE BLACK BALLOON resets Lamorisse’s traversing non-narrative to modern day New York, where a dislocated (or escaped?), solitary black balloon wanders the city – temporarily interrupting the lives of the everyday city dwellers it meets along the way, including an as-himself appearance by author and raconteur Larry “Ratso” Sloman. Tempered by the music of progressive rock mainstays Gong, THE BLACK BALLOON is both an ode to city life and the interconnected nature of contemporary existence.
