Williams' Blood

Hurricane by Grace Jones is one of our favorite albums of 2008. It has totally been worth waiting 19 years for this. And it's just firece that Ms. Jones outdid Madonna, Cyndi Lauper and Janet Jackson when it comes to creative spark and durability. She sounds hungrier than ever, they sound tired. Williams' Blood is the next single to be released from Hurricane and it's such a great track. We love that it's co-written by Jones with Wendy & Lisa. And the fact that the video due later this month is directed by Chris Cunningham is just the best news ever. We found this Areoplane remix that for some strange reason first was deleted from the official remixes by the record label. It's awesome! Download it here. And please do watch Grace Jones sing her balls off at 'Later... with Jools Holland'. Enjoy!

Haha, 'tis funny. A few hours after I wrote this entry I went to a friend's b'day party. And there I started talking to one of her friends who turned out to be the sister of Lisa's wife. She gave me an advance copy of Wendy & Lisa's next album ' White Flags Of Winter Chimneys'. Fab!

Katy Perry seems like a lot of fun

We spent our Saturday evening at Akbar in Silverlake getting drunk with our friends. And at the same time Katy Perry did the same but at Cherry Pop. She seems like our kind a gal!

Did Coldplay copy Joe Satriani?

Stronger Than Jesus

A Camp's self titled first album is easily one of the most played in the Gangster household. It's pure perfection. So we've been eagerly awaiting new material from Nina Persson, Nathan Larson and Niklas Frisk.
It's been a long 8 years...
And now finally - the first sample off new album Colonia is here - Stronger Than Jesus.
The expectations are high and A Camp definitely delivers. It is greatness that we see will age as beautifully as Songs for Leftovers and Rock n' Roll Ghost. We are a bit surprised that the fantastic trio didn't quite deliver an amazing video to this amazing song. This we say as the videos to their previous releases have been flawless and that Nina's The Cardigans are known for their quirkiness and style when it comes to videos. But that's a minor flaw. Check out the lot below. Enjoy!
