And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead - "Worlds Apart"
Austin, Texas' apocalyptic rockers haven't gone soft in their major label endeavors. "Source Tags & Codes" saw the band step up from Merge to Interscope, but they didn't relent. Instead they maximized their budget, paid for some serious studio time (including a string section) and made an epic album. The beast has been hibernating in the studio for some time, ready to emerge with "Worlds Apart," with a title track that calls on the rappers on MTV, but sounds so poppy it might as well make it to the TRL Countdown.

It was arguably the most anticlimactic breakup in the history of rock 'n' roll: death by fax machine. The Pixies were fresh off their thankless opening slot for U2's "Zoo TV." On New Year's Eve 1992, Frank Black faxed the band's management with alert of the breakup. Days later, he announced the split live on BBC Radio 5.

"How would you feel if one day you were drinking coffee in your house, and then you hear on TV that they are going to take your property away and give you what they think it is worth?" asks Patricia Ghiglino.

Lo-fi pop phenom Ariel Pink has made the first imprint on Animal Collective's Paw Tracks records to come from a non-collective member. His new record, "Haunted Graffiti 2: The Doldrums," is a beautifully baffling collection of observations and love songs, from the eyes of a guy who sleeps all day and never leaves his apartment.

She's better at shopping than I am."

"Anybody got any shades?" asks Jamie Foxx. He borrows a pair, and suddenly the built 36-year-old is transformed into a scrawny 70-year-old Ray Charles, complete with a trembling, stammering voice and feeble body language.

Biopics are a polarizing genre of film. They're either plagued with historical inaccuracies, bad impressions or bland scripts. A few have been great ("Rudy"), more have been good ("La Bamba," "Man on the Moon") and others have been god-awful ("Plath," "Dahmer"). And now, music great Ray Charles gets the biopic treatment.

The Blood Brothers sound angry. Listen to any one of the avant-hardcore act's several stellar LPs, and you'll hear a cacophony of screams, shrieks and cries. So why are they avant-hardcore? Because bands like the Blood Brothers and the Locust are disassociated from a movement that has been stigmatized into a genre for thick-necked weightlifters obsessed with gridiron fantasies.

One fateful day in 1996, Peter Doherty and Carlos Barat met in a Liverpool pub. Divided, they were mediocre songwriters without a clue. United, as Barat would describe, they were two one-legged men who, together, could stand up. Soon, the Libertines learned how to walk.

At face value, the Dresden Dolls - a bare-bones, guy 'n' gal, piano and drum Boston duo, channeling both Weimar era-Germany and Tin Pan Alley - seem image-conscious and manufactured. That is, until you listen to their music.

It's every kid's nightmare. Your favorite band, the best-kept secret that (you think) no one knows about, goes big time. And suddenly it becomes a household name. That's the story of Death Cab for Cutie. A band that has quietly and consistently delivered quality material since 1997 from a little place called Bellingham, Wash.; they've traveled all over the world in a smelly little van, sleeping on people's floors to spread the gospel of indie rock.

It was always difficult to ignore the Beasties. Amid the occasional misogynist rhymes and machismo (both of which they would dismiss as their discography deepens), frat-parodies and scorn of traditionalists (who accused them cultural robbery) were an immensely talented group of lyricists. Nevermind that the Beastie Boys were from the upper middle-class, Jewish and originally a punk-rock outfit - these boys could flow.

On paper, the Fiery Furnaces and Inouk seem like an ideal pairing. Both play blues-based roots rock, and both have an indiscernible laundry list of influences. But on Friday night at the Black Cat, White Magic's brand of barefoot tribal folk got the award for most head-scratching set of the night.
