Video: LCD Soundsystem “Drunk Girls”
Monday, April 19th, 2010
Q: What do you get when you pair up LCD Soundsystem with Spike Jonze?
A: An army of bullies in poorly designed panda bear costumes torturing, assaulting and humiliating band members James Murphy, Nancy Whang and Pat Mahoney on set. What begins with innocent petting and undressing, quickly escalates into full-on beatings, spray painting, fire extinguishing, forced cross-dressing and fireworks.
It’s all in good fun though… right?

10/16/09 News briefs: Flaming Lips, Jarvis Cocker, Jemina Pearl, 25 Best Music Websites and Spike Jonze
Friday, October 16th, 2009
The Flaming Lips have announced that they will release a track-by-track interpretation of Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon. Henry Rollins, Peaches and Wayne Coyne’s nephew Dennis will all contribute.
Jarvis Cocker stepped out for the London premiere of Wes Anderson’s new stop-motion animated flick, Fantastic Mr. Fox, in which Cocker plays a small role. His date for the night? His son Albert, who strikes a remarkable resemblance to his dad.
Former Be Your Own Pet singer Jemina Pearl got a little miffed the other night in Detroit when a fan started heckling her about her old band. Her animal instincts kicked in and then she kicked the snot out of him…
In case you’re looking to get your music fill from every angle, The Independent has compiled a list of the 25 Best Music Websites on the interweb. We were ignored, but there are plenty of other great ones on there.
In case you’re going to see Where The Wild Things Are this weekend, keep in mind that Spike Jonze wrote the whole script while listening to Arcade Fire’s Funeral. Or so he told Ain’t It Cool News.

Kanye and Spike Jonze Make Short Film
Tuesday, March 31st, 2009
When you hear someone’s working on a passion project, it’s easy to get excited. Then attach the names Kanye West and Spike Jonze to the venture, and suddenly things get a whole lot more interesting. MTV News is reporting that the two are collaborating on a short film that will be 10-15 minutes in length. The film will feature Kanye’s song “See You In My Nightmares” from his 808s and Heartbreak album, but will not necessarily be a music video for that song. Vincent Landay, Jonze’s producing partner says the film was shot over two days in Los Angeles and no one’s making money on the project.
Kanye and Spike have previously collaborated on the rapper’s “Flashing Lights” video, and are working together for his upcoming European and North American tour this falls. There is no date set for the short film’s release.
