Titus Andronicus Unleash 6 Previously Unreleased The Most Lamentable Tragedy Tracks Within "The Magic Morning" Short Film (Merge Records +@)

"'The Magic Morning" was written and directed by +@uteur Patrick Stickles in a display of artistic hubris that no buzz band today could begin to attempt... WATCH "Our Hero" awake to a world of wonder! GASP at the shocking secret of "The Lookalike!" MARVEL at the mysterious transformative powers of the Vernal Equinox! DANCE to those which are already being called "[Titus Andronicus'] Greatest Hits Yet," reads a rather in-depth press release recently uploaded to Titus Andronicus' punked out webpage. "UNDERSTAND the underlying themes and motifs that elevate [The Most Lamentable Tragedy] far beyond the petty constraints of a mere "Rock album" and into the realm of that which the German philosopher K.F.E. Trahndorff first called, in 1827, Gesamtkunstwerk ("total art"—look it up)," +@ continued. The New Jersey-based Heartland Punk Rock band are of course referring to their soon forthcoming 29-track modern day Rock opera; tediously assembled over the course of the past 3-4 years, TMLT is expected to contain equal parts of The Who's magnum opus, Tommy and The Clash's 3LP genre-blending Sandinista! album.

Uncannily bewhiskered frontman Patrick Stickles and director of photography/editor Ray Conception's Thriller-length "The Magic Morning" short film, alternately known as Act II: "Beside Himself," single-handedly encompasses tracks #7-12 or Side B of The Most Lamentable Tragedy. Titus Andronicus have somehow managed to compact six full-length album tracks throughout the film's 15-minute duration: "The Magic Morning" (Interlude), "Lookalike," a cover of Daniel Johnson's "I Had Lost My Mind," "Mr. E. Mann," "Fired Up," and previously released single, "Dimed Out." It's one Hell of a glorious sh*t-storm of hyper-compacted storytelling accented by an awkward tighty whities-divided showdown between a bearded and clean-shaven Stickles, sporadic half-assed dance routines, intentionally shaky camera work, and a ruthless 1-2-3-4-5-6 punch of gritty Punk Rock opera stylings. Ahead of it's soon impending July 28th release, Titus Andronicus have unveiled the proper follow-up to their Titus Andronicus LLC Mixtape, Vol. 1 (2012) and a 22-track complimentary warm-up piece to The Most Lamentable Tragedy; Sorry About The Delay aka "Mixtape Vol. 2A" is composed of a wide array of unpolished material including rehearsal takes, 7-inch versions, assorted demos, alternate mixtape mixes, and two experimental Lil' Wayne-referencing intro/outros. The Most Lamentable Tragedy, which has already been humbly self-described as "the most feverishly/breathlessly discussed Rock N Roll record of 2015" is now conveniently available for pre-order in a number of select formats.

[W]reckless, Topless American Youth: Lana del Rey - "Born 2 Die" (Britney Spears Birthday 30)

Lana del Rey [Lizzy Grant] effectively became 2011's "It Girl" with the release of her phenomenal debut single, "Video Games" (Stranger) . Like many struggling singer-songwriters, Grant has been signed, dropped, and significantly changed her public image since bursting onto the scene (2009). With that said, it can be assumed that Lana del Rey has collected just as many "haters" as she has avid supporters. To be perfectly honest, the only other artist I can think of that made this much commotion... garnered so much wide-spread buzz/hate and critical acclaim -- right out of the gates -- with just one track is Britney Spears . And maybe in this post- Mike musical era, that's the true synthesis of Pop Culture: Britney Lynn Spears . After months of repeated teasing and speculation, Lana del Rey 's major label debut, Born 2 Die will [finally] be released this coming Jan. 30-31, 2012. Pitchfork reports that it will feature "Off to The Ra

"Let Me Shine for You:" Lindsay Lohan for Playboy (Winter 2011-12 Leak)

Lindsay Lohan essentially embodies exactly "What NOT to Do In Hollywood :" Fame, fortune, success... sex, drugs & Rock "N" Roll . Within a fairly short period of time, Lohan somehow managed to obtain a plentiful helping of POWER @ a very young age. This gradual rise-downfall was captured on film; Between 1998-2010, she portrayed a wide array of roles across the silver screen in movies including: Mean Girls, Bobby , Herbie Fully Loaded , Georgia Rule, Machete , and Freaky Friday . Between rapid-paced film shoots, Lindsay Lohan also found time to record 2 Pop Rock albums for Casablanca , Speak (2004) and A Litter More Personal-Raw (2005). Needless to say, Lindsay Lohan has gotten roped up in a lot of troubles and woes with the law over the last 3-5 years... a vicious cycle of drugs, arrest, court, rehab, "daddy issues," jail time [Repeat]. That's the pure basics of it - But Google that shit for additional info, if necessary. Towards the end of
