GRAND



AWESOME video for Matt & Kim's "Lesson Learned" from their new album "Grand"..

They're this couple (on and off stage) that play a little punk and electronic, just like the case with Mates Of States..except they're younger and more energetic and raw and all..

Oh yeah..and they smile all the time!

"I got a freeway in mind, let go of my head. Walk down my line better be sure you'll be there"


I only got two Kurt Vile songs and they share the same lyric.

In "Beach On The Moon", he play soothing acoustic guitar licks filled with smooth vocals, you can almost picture him jamming his guitar and just singing his guts out through a night road trip through a desert.
In "Freeway", the day road trip through the desert begins.
He mix a psychedelic rock jam (or maybe a more folk-ier Of Montreal kind of vibe) with his Bob Dylan-esque vocals that sounds like he's dragging his voice..the mix works gloriously. This is probably one of my favorite jam of 2009..

Oh, but wait, he already released his debut album last year but it was on limited release. His debut, "Constant Hitmaker" got reissued this year (like the case of Bon Iver's reissued debut kind of thing).

Hope i'll hear more great things this year for Kurt Vile..

P.S.
i've been imagining this night road trip through a desert because of The Go-Getter..
and this road trip is filled with conversation between me and Zooey D about communicating with animals..
and she's wearing a head lamp.

"Each and every man under my command owes me one hundred Nazi scalps, and I want my scalps! "


INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS is in Vanity Fair!
Can't wait for Lieutenant Aldo Raine and the boys to kill some Nazis..
INGLOURIOUS is going to compete in this year's Cannes Film Festival (13-24May).
People who have read the script said that it's really really good. I hope the film will do good too, and maybe Quentin will win a Palm D'or again for this..

"Brangelina got one, Maddona got one, now Brüno got one.."



Red band trailer for the new Sacha Baron Cohen's (Borat) "Brüno"!
Everyone pissed their pants when a footage was shown at SXSW last month. ThePlaylist said that Brüno makes Borat like a child's play.
I'm going to watch Borat again..
