Thats how it Starts...


Excellent interview with James Murphy HERE
A little snippet:
Nobody can play live like us," he insists disgustedly. "Nobody tries. And there are more talented people that should be better. That's what I take exception to. I think it's insulting. It's like coming into the ring out of shape. Don't fucking come into the ring out of shape; it's disrespectful. Don't come play a show with us and bring your B-game and phone it in and pose, pull a whole bunch of rock bullshit moves and emote and shit like that with us because I'll fucking punch you in the face. That's bullshit."
Right on.

The next single from "Sound of Silver" is "All my friends". Instead of the usual slew of remixes they've got Franz Ferdinand (knob twiddling by Erol Alkan) & John Cale to cover the track- You can hear the Franz version HERE.

Also included on the release is an LCD cover of Joy Division's "No Love Lost"

More Joakim- Great mix on line at Allez-Allez, grab it NOW

See ya.
