The third installment in Beck’s Record club.

This is what he had to say about it:

This one took place last June (09) when Wilco was in town for the release
of their new eponymous album. They came by after a long day filming
a TV appearance and still managed to put down eight songs with us.

Jamie Lidell was in the studio with me working on his new record.
Leslie Feist happened to be in town editing her documentary and heard
we were all getting together. Recording took place at Sunset Sound
Studios in the room where the Stones did a lot of Exile On Main Street
(and looking at the records on the walls it appeared that the Doobie
Brothers recorded most of their output there too). Sitting in on drums,
we had James Gadson, who’s played on most of the Bill Withers records
and on songs like ‘Express Yourself’ and ‘I Will Survive.’ Jeff Tweedy’s
son Spencer played played additional drums. Also, Brian Lebarton,
from the last two Record Club sessions is back.

No news yet on who they chose to cover for the 4th edition
or even if there is a next Record Club.

Stay tuned.

Tron: Legacy Trailer

How fucking outstanding is this?

Seeing this trailer 3D IMAX style last night gave me a HUGE nerd boner.

French electro duo Daft Punk wrote the score. I mean how perfect
is that?

To refresh your memory:

CGI sure has come a long way.

Autolux “Transit Transit” Tracklist + Thom Yorke Show

Posted on | March 9, 2010 | No Comments

I said I would report on any and all news concerning the new Autolux
album
.

We’re not quite there yet when it comes to a release date (big shocker)
but we do now have an official tracklist:

And the record labels it shall be released on which are TBD Records
(Radiohead‘s label) for the U.S./Japan markets and for the UK/
rest of the world
ATP Recordings.

This could come out next week or a year from now. It’s been 6 years
since their debut. What’s a few more years … I kid Autolux because
I love but common! pull the trigger on this already.

From this tracklist, seems half of them I have yet to hear.

“Census”, “Highchair”, “Spots”, “The Bouncing Walls” and “Kissproof”.

Altough some of these might be the untitled songs that
were included in their recent live show setlists.

Sad to see that one of my favorite live staples “Reappearing”
did not make the cut. Perhaps a future B-side?

As for live shows, they’ve been handpicked by Thom Yorke
to open for his Atoms For Peace show April 17 at the
Santa Barbara Bowl in Santa Barbara, CA.

Sweetest. Double bill. Ever!

Tickets can be purchased right here.
