50 Years of the WB
So Warner Brothers have dug through the vaults and pulled out some classics and had some of their active roster rework them in Covered, A Revolution In Sound:Warner Bros. Records. The album is not really a new concept but there are some great highlights include Mastodon covering Just Got Paid, The Black Keys doing justice to Captain Beefheart's Her Eyes Are a Blue Million Miles, and The Flaming Lips psych'in out Borderline.
Check the The Flaming Lips with Stardeath and White Dwarfs

Wavves Live 2-06-09
"With his voice cracked and his hair looking like a trailer trash experiment gone hideously right, Wavves leader Nathan Williams offers 18 minutes of soft-to-loud noise-pop live from Brooklyn's Market Hotel."

The Pitchfork live series is actually pretty solid including full shows from Janes Addiction, Bon Iver, Titus Andronicus, King Khan, Jay Reatard, Black Mountain, Cut Copy, and many more.

The Dead Weather
- Third Man Records, the imprint on which Jack White releases all of his music including The White Stripes and The Raconteurs, now has a physical location in downtown Nashville. White's new Third Man Records building serves as the company HQ and houses the label's offices plus a vinyl record store, photo studio, dark room and performance stage.
- In celebration of the building's opening, the label’s newest rock outfit, The Dead Weather, delivered their first public performance with a set including songs from their forthcoming album, Horehound. The band, fronted by Alison Mosshart (known to music fans as one half of The Kills) includes The Raconteurs' Jack Lawrence on bass, Dean Fertita from Queens Of The Stone Age on guitar and Jack White on drums and vocals. In addition to playing, White also served as producer on Horehound. Recording took place earlier this year in just three weeks at the newly constructed Third Man Studio, designed from the ground up by White. Third Man plans a June release for the album.
- Around 150 fans, family and friends attended the Third Man Records grand opening event and exchanged their letter-pressed invitations for limited edition 7" vinyl pressings of The Dead Weather's debut single "Hang You From The Heavens" (b/w a stealth cover of Gary Numan's "Are Friends Electric?"). The Dead Weather hand painted each of the 150 7" records that also included a different photo booth strip of the band members. Downloads of these two songs are now available exclusively through iTunes.

American Artifact
I seriously can't wait for this film to be released. One of my favorite collecting passions is rock art screen prints. It looks like Producer/Director Merle Becker and Freakfilms Inc knew what they were doing with the artist lineup they have rounded up for the film. The only artist I feel that is missing out of the bunch is Rob Jones. Check out the website www.americanartifactmovie.com for release and other info.
