Supergrass Tour With Foo Fighters
Give Diamond Hoo Ha a U.S. release date, but, alas, retain the title
A few weeks back, we mentioned that Supergrass' new one, Diamond Hoo Ha, didn't yet have a release date in the States. But no more! Astralwerks will issue Diamond Hoo Ha June 10. We also claimed they have UK dates on the way; still true, but now, expanded. See for yourself... [MORE...]
Photos: Tapes 'n Tapes [Minneapolis, MN; 04/10/08]
Photos by Stacy SchwartzDressed to the nines in collared shirts, sweater vests, and, okay, some t-shirts and jeans, Tapes 'n Tapes began their tour in support of the recently released Walk It Off in their hometown of Minneapolis last night. Their First Avenue set saw support from White Denim, who'll accompany the Tapes on their entire North American tour, and the Birthday Suits.
Catch the pastel-fond quartet at venues throughout North America and Europe this spring.

Bassist Ira Trevisan Leaves CSS
Band readies new album for July release
CSS, you always know what to say. In what sounds like one of the most amicable departures in the history of these things, bassist Ira Trevisan has left the Brazilian electro-punk troupe due to what they're calling "personal reasons."
Ira explains her move in a statement posted on the band's MySpace blog: "I decided to move forward and dedicate more of my time to fashion and other projects. Just a big change of priorities, as I will never stop playing music. I am also a bit worried about climate change. People should care more and do something about it. I decided to fly less. CSS will always be in my heart. They said goodbye to their bass player, but they won a new life time fan. In health and sickness, in happiness and so forth. Blah blah blah, so help us God." See? Funny! Not sad! Well played, ya'll.
With Trevisan's exit, drummer Adriano Cintra will pick up the bass, and a session drummer (a CSS chum, it's claimed) will join the group in the live setting. What, no reality television auditions?
The band also took the opportunity to fill in a few details on their forthcoming LP. Well, just one detail, really: it'll hit the UK in July. More info is expected to follow soon, since, hey, July ain't so far off. For now, though, there's quite a little tour in the works, which kicks off May 5 in Cardiff. [MORE...]
Wire Reveal New LP Title, Tracklist, New Dates
Add Laika's Margaret Fiedler McGinnis to live lineup

Asobi Seksu Sign to Polyvinyl, Prep Third Album
New York dream-poppers Asobi Seksu have just announced that they've left the Brooklyn-based Friendly Fire Recordings for a new home at Champaign, Illinois' Polyvinyl Records.The imprint-- North American home to the likes of Of Montreal and Architecture in Helsinki-- will issue Asobi's follow-up to 2006's Citrus later in 2008. Like Citrus, the forthcoming album will feature the production touch of Chris Zane (Les Savy Fav, the Walkmen, Tokyo Police Club). The band's European releases, meanwhile, will still be handled by One Little Indian.
Asobi Seksu have plans to hit the studio in June, with European festival dates to follow this summer.
White Williams, Deerhunter Members Get Weird
As do members of Excepter, Ecstatic Sunshine, Rings
The bands are called Fakey and Hex Message. The former is a "power trio" consisting of Joe Williams (aka White Williams), Deerhunter's Moses Archuleta, and Ecstatic Sunshine's Matthew Papich. The latter is a collaboration between Excepter's Dan Hougland, Rings' Abby Portner, gallerist Pascal Spengemann, and artist Andrew Kuo.
Curated by former FADER editor-in-chief Alex Wagner, Get Weird is a performance series at the New Museum that happens on the third Thursday of each month.
Man Man and Yeasayer Kick Off Joint Tour Tonight
Things are bound to get a little hairy once Man Man and Yeasayer take to the stage tonight on the first of many stages they'll share on their previously reported joint tour of North America. I mean, hell, just look at 'em!Man Man, fresh off this week's release of Rabbit Habits, and Yeasayer, still ridin' high on All Hour Cymbals, will join forces through the rest of April and the first bit of May before wrapping their shared stint at the ATP vs. Pitchfork festival near Rye, England.
Man Man will break briefly to hit Coachella, and they've lined up a pre-ATP date sans the sayers of Yea in Towson, Maryland. Both bands also have a slew of overseas gigs to attend to after they rock ATP, and Yeasayer will take one of the many stages at Lollapalooza come early August. [MORE...]
Leila Signs to Warp for New LP, Opens for Bjork
Iranian electronic producer Leila Arab has signed to Warp for the release of her third LP under her first name. Some eight years in coming, the follow-up to Courtesy of Choice is called Blood, Looms and Blooms, and it features guest appearances from Specials vocalist Terry Hall, Tricky collaborator/solo artist Martina Topley-Bird, and longtime Leila pal Luca Santucci, among others. Warp will release Blooms in the UK on June 9.Leila has a fair number of live dates supporting Björk in April and May, but our first studio sample of her new tunes will come in the form of two singles. Warp will release the "Mettle" 10"/digital single on April 21, then follow it with the "Deflect" single on May 26.
U.S. release dates for the album and the singles are still being finalized, but Warp is planning for "Mettle" to make its way over in mid-to-late April and Blooms to follow in mid-to-late June.
You can view the alluring cover of Blood, Looms and Blooms, along with Leila's dates, after the jump. [MORE...]
Radiohead Chart With "Nude" Unexpectedly
For all their critical and online popularity, it's easy to forget that Radiohead aren't exactly Alicia Keys/John Mayer/T-Pain in terms of pure sales figures. So when their newest single, "Nude", debuted at number 37 on the Billboard Hot 100 this week-- becoming, on paper anyway, the band's biggest hit since "Creep"-- it came as an interesting surprise.That surprise is especially interesting because the song probably would not have made the Hot 100 if it weren't for its non-traditional release format. Recall that the band not only released the In Rainbows version of "Nude" last week; they also released five of its component parts via iTunes as "stems" for use in the creation of fan-made remixes. The complete song sold just under 13,000 copies in its first week, but since Billboard counted the cumulative sales of the song and all five stems (totalling just under 60,000), Radiohead = Top 40 stars, at least for the week [via Idolator].
UPDATE: A Billboard.com report posted today notes that "Nude" did not in fact chart on a "technicality", but that the five "Nude" stems were technically considered "remixes" of the track, and thus included in the Hot 100 tally under standard chart policy regarding remixes.
Maybe this means the band will finally live up to its name and fight Usher comeback singles all summer for ultimate car stereo ubiquity. Not that Radiohead will have time to pay attention to the battle, as they hit the road running in early May and more or less don't stop until August is through. [MORE...]
Photos: Gnarls Barkley / Santogold [New York, NY; 04/10/08]
Photos by Kathryn YuFrom "Crazy" to just plain Odd, Gnarls Barkley's Cee-Lo Green and Danger Mouse are certainly an interesting pair. Last night at New York's Highline Ballroom, the neo-soulsters kept their heads on straight to jam through some tracks from their sophomore album, The Odd Couple, plus some Gnarls classics too.
The new disc, you may recall, was thrust upon the public with hardly a peep of advance warning. And then they tried to give all their fans seizures! Does that make them crazy? Possibly.
Meanwhile, rising star Santogold warmed up the crowd with a few cuts from her forthcoming self-titled debut. Find more photos of both acts and a few dates below, then catch Gnarls on "Saturday Night Live" tomorrow evening, April 12.

Coldplay Reveal Viva la Vida Tracklist
Coldplay, the self-described "very heavy soft rock" troupe you know and your mom loves, have seen fit to unveil a tracklist for their forthcoming Brian Eno/Markus Dravs-produced fourth LP with the silly name. Chris and company couldn't quite hold Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends to the nine tracks they'd reportedly been hoping for, but with a title like that, it's probably best to go big all around. The disc will be released June 16 in the UK on Parlophone and June 17 in the U.S. on Capitol. It will sell well.Coldplay still have but a trio of dates on what will probably become a rather massive tour undertaking: a spot at the inaugural Pemberton bash along with BFF Jay-Z, and two dates at Japan's Summer Sonic festival.
Oh, and, um, LOL. [MORE...]
Black Moth Super Rainbow Link With Waxploitation
Let the wackiness continue. The Pennsylvania weirdoes known as Black Moth Super Rainbow have found a new group of enablers for their hijinks in the folks at Waxploitation, the humanitarian-oriented label, publisher, and management company.Waxploitation's relationship with Black Moth Super Rainbow covers the management and publishing realms, although BMSR technically remains unsigned at this time. Waxploitation will, however, aid Black Moth member Tobacco as he unleashes a solo project called Fucked Up Friends in the near future on Anticon (details forthcoming). Check out a Tobacco/Aesop Rock meetup from the upcoming LP over in Forkcast.
In other Black Moth Super Rainbow news, the crew will release the "Zodiac Girl" 7" via Suicide Squeeze on May 6. They also have a pair of live dates coming up. [MORE...]
