In these features two bands on opposing sides of a split release will take turns asking each other five questions.
In this edition, Victor Alvarez of The Knockdown and Elliot Meyer of How Dare You trade queries about band life, inspiration, fatherhood and other topics so engaging they end up breaking the five question rule in our very first segment. Both bands are part of a split 7" available from Kiss of Death.

In an unusual way, Warner Music Group act Foxy Shazam will be premiering their new record via the popular/horrifying site, ChatRoulette [NSFW, probably]. The band explained the site:
It's this underground social website thing that connects strangers around the world through their webcams. whoever uses it can meet thousands of people everyday! It goes from kittens playing one second and then amateur porn the next. It can get pretty gross, yet adorable.
The band is hosting the stream on a ChatRoulette channel, but since the site is random, odds are you will receive something less musical and more hairy so be careful out there. |

Popular film geek site Ain't It Cool News have posted one of the first reviews of the forthcoming Runaways film starring Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning. The review heaps praise on the biopic saying:
The film follows the evolution and too quick demise of THE RUNAWAYS, that amazing all girl concept band that didn't monkey around. You see a young Joan Larkin buy her first leather coat and suddenly - she became Joan Jett. Joan had a dream of an all girl band that would rock as hard, if not harder, than the boys. Kristen Stewart is amazing to watch - there's a shyness that reads as alienation perfectly in this film.
Dakota is playing Cherie Currie, who was 15 when she joined the band (same age as Dakota). Cherie didn't handle success very well... diving head first into the realm of drugs, sex and rock & roll. In the film, we don't see Dakota naked - so you pervs can forget screen grabs. Instead, the sex and promiscuity is shot in a very non-exploitive, but erotic manner. Her love scene with Kristen Stewart will probably rot a lot of brains - and Dakota is used perfectly to show something more than what Cherie Currie's public image was. Let's face it, Cherie was the highly sexualized fetishized Jail Bait rocker of the group.
Kristen and Dakota are amazing to watch together in this film. THE RUNAWAYS is a fantastic film. It premieres at SXSW and shortly thereafter in theaters nationwide. Like the original RUNAWAYS, these girls and this movie rock.
Another trailer has been posted for the film and that can be found via YouTube. |
