FIFA '08 Features PB&J;, Bonde, !!!, Robyn, CSS, SMD
EA Sports, like most other video game companies, has realized the vast cross-promotional opportunities of lifting tunes from real musicians for their games. So, for their FIFA '08 footballpalooza (or soccerpalooza for us Yanks), they've gathered a bunch of tracks both suitable and shrugworthy to get you pumped for all that hot dribbling action.
Though there are 50 tunes on the FIFA '08 soundtrack, the ones you're likely to recognize through the door of your roommate's pad include Art Brut's "Direct Hit", Peter Bjorn & John's "Young Folks", Bonde do Role's "Solta O Frango", Robyn's "Bum Like You", CSS' "Off the Hook", Simian Mobile Disco's "I Believe", !!!'s "All My Heroes Are Weirdos", Datarock's "Fa-Fa-Fa", Digitalism's "Pogo", Maximo Park's "The Unshockable", Modeselektor's "Silikon", Santogold's "You Will Find a Way", that Madness song with Sway, and tracks by Kenna, K-Os, and, yup, Travis. Travis? Is that some kind of psych-out or something?
You can push buttons while listening to the above songs (and many more!) starting tomorrow, October 9, when the game is released for virtually every system but the PS3. That pack of early adopters will have to wait 'til the 16th for their FIFA.
Soulsavers (With Lanegan) Announce Brief Fall Tour
Like those dudes in the well-starched, short-sleeved shirts and crewcuts knocking on your door when you're making your lunch, Rich Machin and Ian Glover are dead set on saving your soul. And Machin, one half of those well-meaning Soulsavers, is set to embark on a brief but nonetheless powerful evangelical mission. (Seems Glover prefers to worship in the studio.) In November, Machin will tour the U.S. with his friends in good faith Mark Lanegan (Screaming Trees, QOTSA, Gutter Twins, etc.), Rich Warren and Kevin Bales of Spiritualized, gospel singers Carmen Smart and Wendi Rose, bassist Matt Stravick, and guitarist Steve Gullick.
These dates come hot on the heels of the recent cancellation of the Savers' opening spots on the Jesus and Mary Chain tour. The pious-sounding band name must've fooled 'em until they got their hands on the lyrics to "Kill Surf City". Blasphemy!
The group's latest missive, the Lanegan-heavy It's Not How Far You Fall, It's the Way You Land, drops October 16 on Columbia. [MORE...]
Hold Steady Add Bonus CD to Boys UK Reissue
Hold Steady, Bristol! Soon enough, you'll be up to your neck in sweat and more, uh, Hold Steady. The hardest working dudes in bro business are reissuing last year's Boys and Girls in America in the UK on Vagrant with a bonus disc chock full of tracks from that Live at Fingerprints EP.
According to the tracklist on NME.com, the disc appears to sport two tunes not on Fingerprints: "Your Little Hoodrat Friend" and "First Night". In other words, a dude like myself better start saving for the import right quick.
Er, maybe not: A deluxe version Boys and Girls is being planned specifically for America as well. Details are a bit slim at the moment-- it's not due 'til sometime next spring, we're told-- but it'll come with a DVD shot at the band's October-December 2006 U.S. shows, as well as their European tour earlier in 2007. There'll also be some footage from the band's forthcoming tour with Art Brut, and possibly some new audio as well, just nothing from the Fingerprints EP.
England gets yet another shot of Hold Steady October 22, when Vagrant UK releases "Massive Nights" as a digital-only, bonus-track-free single. [MORE...]

Woodie dominators the Shins continued their fall tour in support of this year's Wincing the Night Away with a show at Los Angeles' Greek Theatre
last night. The band continues around the country for the next month,
before heading off to Europe and finally all the way to Japan in
November. They'll hit "The Tonight Show" tonight, where they'll perform
Wincing track "Sea Legs".
Opening band the Shaky Hands are chronicling their adventures on the road with the Shins for Portland paper Willamette Week's music site Local Cut.

A bandana-wearing Spencer Krug led his excellent band Sunset Rubdown to Boston's Middle East club last night, for the second show on the tour in advance of their new LP, Random Spirit Lover, out tomorrow on Jagjaguwar. At the end of the set, Krug announced that it was the birthday of their sound technician, Dave, who threatened to pull the plug on the mixer if anybody struck up "Happy Birthday". Krug called his bluff anyway, and led the crowd in a rousing rendition.
Opening for Sunset Rubdown on this trek is Johnny and the Moon, the side project of Krug's fellow Wolf Parader Dante DeCaro. Continuing the side project fever, also opening the show was Magic Weapon, featuring Jordan Robson-Cramer of Sunset Rubdown.

Thurston Opens for Bright Eyes, Adds Shows
Conor Oberst suddenly realizes what he's going to look like in 30 years
Photo by Jason Bergman
Sure, Bright Eyes are massively popular and have top 10 records and stuff. And Sonic Youth are massively influential and have top 10 records (on critics' polls) and stuff. But one suspects neither young Conor Oberst nor skronkfather Thurston Moore ever thought the elder statesguy of noise-rock would assume the warmup slot for teary rock's poster boy. But lo and behold, it's happening.
Attendees of Bright Eyes' November 19 show at Radio City Music Hall in NYC might want to be extra mindful of punctuality, as Thurston will be knocking over those Trees tracks before Bright Eyes take ya'll to Cassadaga and back.
In addition to the Bright Eyes opening slot, Thurston's added a few more European dates to his own tour, and a couple Stateside in-stores as well. His next gig, in fact, will be amongst the iPhones at NYC's SoHo Apple Store on October 17.
Sonic Youth, who recently wrapped up a trio of Texan dates over the weekend, appear to have no further plans for 2007. Unless "being collectively awesome" is a plan. [MORE...]
Lil' Wayne Arrested on Fugitive Charges in Idaho
According to MyFoxAtlanta.com, Lil Wayne was arrested Friday night in Boise, Idaho following a concert. He was slapped with a felony fugitive charge springing from the fact that he missed two court dates in August relating to a 2006 drug arrest in Georgia.
Wayne was apparently unaware he was due in court in August, according to his attorney, William Head. Head claims that Wayne never received any notice about the court appearances, as he was "under the impression that those charges had either been resolved or dismissed." Wayne is currently out on a $20,000 bond, and is due back in a Fulton County, Georgia court for his arraignment tomorrow. [MORE...]

The Decemberists Cancel UK Dates
Sorry, British Decemberists fans. The band has been forced to cancel the remainder of their European tour due to illness. A message posted on their website on Saturday stated:With much regret The Decemberists have cancelled the remainder of our European tour. One of our band members is ill and needs to return immediately home to mend.
Our deepest apologies to all of our fans whom have purchased tickets to our forthcoming European shows. Unfortunately our calendar doesn't allow us to return to Europe at any point soon so please refund tickets at point of purchase.
Full calendar, eh? All I see is this month or so of "Long and Short of It" dates. You guys hitting the studio soon? Please? [MORE...]

Indiepalooza! Randall's Island, out in the middle of the East River off the coast of Manhattan, was the site of a massive concert this weekend, as the Arcade Fire / LCD Soundsystem tour came to a close, with Les Savy Fav, Blonde Redhead and Boston's Wild Light joining in the fun.
The Fav's Tim Harrington stuffed his face and did a little striptease for the crowd, while LCD's James Murphy tore through some of the Sound(s) of Silver. Arcade Fire blasted out a boisterous set of tunes from this year's Neon Bible, then hit the crowd for a megaphone-blasting encore cover of the Violent Femmes' "Kiss Off".
The only downer? Win Butler announcing that this would be the last time the band would play NYC for a few years. Sounds like the band is taking a well-deserved break.

Zach Condon Guests on New Final Fantasy Single
Indie rockers in the mirror are far more excited about upcoming joint project than they appear
There's been no shortage of Final Fantasy music in the year-and-a-half since the release of He Poos Clouds; it just generally hasn't been his own. Whether arranging strings for some band or other, fiddlin' around on the records of several dozen others, or coming up with those loopy covers, Mr. Pallett's been too busy giving himself away to give us anything of his own. Until now. Sort of.
On November 20, Tomlab will unveil the X release in its Alphabet Series of 7" singles, the work of Final Fantasy assisted by the steady hands of Beirut's Zach Condon. It contains two new tracks that are longtime live staples: "Hey Dad" and "What Do You Think Will Happen Next?" According to a press release, "'Hey Dad' begins in an unassuming dream-state only to build to a gorgeous drum-roll and tambourine march. 'What Do You Think Will Happen Next?' seeks a life sans cigarettes with a tight rock drum, nearly synth-sounding violins, and the help of Mr. Condon's signature horns." Sounds a lot better than the patch, eh?
Tomlab's only pressing up 500 of these puppies, and seeing as both these dudes are so hot right now, making haste is probably in your best interest if you'd like one of these things. And, hey, while you're zipping around doing things in a disorderly fashion, maybe you'll stumble upon Owen as he traverses this North America of ours on tour. [MORE...]
