Fifteen years on, Liz Phair plays her groundbreaking ‘Exit in Guyville’ album in concert. Read a piece, hear the concert and listen to an interview on NPR.
Depeche Mode are back on the road with a new world tour. They also plan to release a new album next April. The Turner Prize winning artist, Jeremy Deller and collaborator, Nicholas Abrahams have made a film about Depeche Mode fans, ‘The Posters Came From The Walls‘, which will be shown at the BFI in London on 21st October 2008. The stories are about the lengths that DM fans around the world have to go to, in order to maintain their devotion. “In Russia, May 9 is Victory Day, a national holiday. It’s also the birthday of Dave Gahan, lead singer with Depeche Mode, and a group of Muscovite fans have declared it Dave Day…In Russia and countries of the former Soviet Union, the band’s music has been treasured since it was only available on illegal bootlegged cassettes in the 1980s, and it formed the soundtrack of the march toward freedom those countries embarked upon following the fall of the Berlin Wall.”
Meanwhile, Art Garfunkel’s current (and past) wardrobe choices get slagged off in the Guardian. Art Garfunkel? I could think of some better contenders. Check out the freaky Bowie/Garfunkel combo below:
