Soundtrack To Your Lost Premiere Party

Thursday 31 January 2008 @ 10:57 pm

Got friends coming over for tonight's nerd Superbowl? Before you sit in silence, eyes glued to ABC, check out Neatorama's party ideas. Our favorites:
1. Refreshments: Airplane-sized bottles of liquor and mini packets of peanuts.
2. Decor: Luggage scattered all over the living room.

As for your pre-game playlist, save for DriveSHAFT your best bets are:

  • Cass Elliot - "Make Your Own Kind Of Music" (iTunes)
  • Patsy Cline - "Walking After Midnight" (iTunes)
  • Petula Clark - "Downtown" (iTunes)
  • Three Dog Night - "Shambala" (iTunes)
  • Nirvana - "Scentless Apprentice" (iTunes)
Other recommended pre-show research includes this list of 5 Questions the Lost Writers Need to Answer (And Why They Won't).

As for what you missed since May's season flash-forward, there were some Verizon mobisodes that are part of the official Lost canon. The latest one gave us a headache.

Our favorite dumb theory: time on the island moves in reverse. That explains Richard...

But not Walt, eh?

OK, almost game time. Let us know what you think.

New Craig Wedren - “Crush You” (And His Barack Rock Event, Feat. Nina Persson & Stella Stars)

Thursday 31 January 2008 @ 10:43 pm

We've never been shy about our love for Shudder To Think, a love largely hinging on the vocal chords of Craig Wedren. Since that band's demise, he's kept busy with soundtracking and solo recordings and has a new album Wand forthcoming. He told us, "It's gonna come out next fall/winter with an accompanying movie. Essentially, it'll be an album you go to the movies to hear (and see)." He also told us he's not sure who's releasing it, but that he imagines his past label, Conor Oberst's Team Love, will be involved somehow. After the jump we have the potential fist single "Crush You." How fitting a title, really.

No, Craig, We Have A Man Crush On You




New Foreign Born Live Video - “Union Hall” (And Tour With St. Vincent)

Thursday 31 January 2008 @ 10:34 pm

When you put a choir behind a band, good things can definitely happen. We dig L.A. group Foreign Born's "Union Hall," but seeing them do it with a robed posse surrounding them ups the chill factor. They released their most recent album On The Wing Now via Dim Mak over the summer, but are about to head out on tour with St. Vincent (yes, a choir and a Saint), so to get a taste of the FB half of the magic, we have a live video of the band performing that aforementioned track after the jump. As well as dates for the St. Vincent tour. There's something holy going on in that sky.

Rare Beck Error Card MINT

Thursday 31 January 2008 @ 10:20 pm

From the PR folks working that terrific Odelay reissue we never got a chance to mention:

The first pressing of the recent Odelay Deluxe Reissue was found to have gone out with unproofed lyrics that were taken from a lyrics website as place holders for layout purposes. Beck apologizes for this unfortunate oversight and is making arrangements for the corrected lyrics to be available gratis via Beck.com. Subsequent pressings of the Odelay Deluxe will also include the corrected lyrics.
Internets are so unreliable. We've been singing the wrong words to "New Pollution" for a dozen years, though ... Why stop now?
