Robbie Williams Is Going To Get Bodied
Robbie Williams will release a new single (”Bodies,” on Oct. 12) and album Reality Killed The Video Star, Nov. 9) this fall, and it’s not a moment too soon, what with Lady GaGa’s overly defensive, oddly tuneless brand of “doing it for my art” not really filling the void as far as “self-aware pop stars who also happen to make banging tunes” go. And the whole shebang will be produced by former Buggle Trevor Horn, thus linking the ex-Take That member to t.A.T.u., Belle & Sebastian, and Yes. Awesome. [Popjustice] More »
t.A.T.u Hop On Their Excitebikes
You can almost hear the brainstorming session for t.A.T.u’s blisteringly trebly “Snegopady (Snowfalls)” video as its story–which picks up right where the slightly boring video for “220″ ends–unfurls: More »
ohGr Plays With Celebrities, Capitalization
You can tell that ohGr is an extremely creative and artistic band because of the presence of a capital letter in the middle of its name instead of at the beginning, sort of like t.A.T.u.; also, one band member is named cEvin Key, which makes the band seem even more creative and artistic. ohGr’s new Devils in My Details (SPV) tumbles to No. 147 on Billboard’s Heatseekers chart a week after entering at No. 18 (and spending a week at No. 9 on the Electronic album chart); one MySpace friend calls it “a bit darker and ominous than the other ohGr albums,” suggesting those earlier ones were perhaps all happy and sunshiney.
They’re Nihilists… Beautiful Nihilists… And Now They’re In Space
t.A.T.u. Plays It Straight
The video for t.A.T.u.’s new Russian single “220″ features no heroic lesbianism, no tabloidy murders, and no firing squads–instead, Lena Katina and Yulia Volkova get their burlesque outfits out and, uh, just sort of dance for the camera. More »
The t.A.T.u. Movie: It Exists!
You And I, previously known as Finding t.A.T.u., previously known as That Movie That Introduced The Phrase “They’re Nihilists… Beautiful Nihilists” To The World, had its premiere at the Cannes Film Festival (?!) last week, a fact that I only found out because some British tabloid ran a piece on her skipping the movie’s debut out of embarrassment. The fact that there are no reviews yet of You And I, which follows two fans of the Russian pop act as they “are swept into a dangerous world of obsession, drug abuse and murder,” makes me wonder if the movie’s as bad as Barton claims, or if the premiere was just turning everyone away at the door to maximize buzz for its inevitable American release. In case you need a refresher of the movie’s finer moments, or you just want to see a hairnetted Barton “working” in a slaughterhouse, there’s a highlight reel after the jump.
Australian MTV Awards Make Me Feel Better About America
On the days when I’m trying to entertain you people with the blogging, I get a little depressed sometimes about American music. Spend any amount of time looking through music coverage in daily or weekly newspapers or trade magazines, and it’s hard to see a bright side as miserable acts fly up the charts. On the other hand, Australia’s MTV Awards were this weekend, and their popular music seems to suck more than ours, so chin up, buddy! More »
