A heart of stone, a smoking gun

Lots of goodies for today!
Thanks to Pfork, you can stream Wire's new song "One of Us" here

Also, you can thank them for the heads up on the new Black Kids vid for "Hurricane Jane":

It's full of magical looking sparkly things.

Next order of biz, is a whole lotta new Sigur Ros shiz. You can watch a new video (NSFW for n00ds) & download their new single "Gobbledigook" at their website. Omg, the song is sooo good. Seriously. Just the right amount of old Sigur Ros plus new.  It also, as my brother pointed out, has sort of a Dave Matthews Band type of acoustic riffing. Listen to "Grey Street" by DMB & you'll see what I mean. You can thank Sgum for those heads up as well as a buzz in our ear; apparently the translation for the album is "with a buzz in our ears we play endlessly" or "með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust" in Icelandic. Visit Sgum for some facts about the new album!

Alsoooo check out NME for news about Feist, Ben Gibbard, The National, The Decemberists, and other sweet artists doing a compilation for 'Red Hot' charity album. That should be cool, no? (Thnx ONTD for the tip)
