The Foo Fires

Here is an awesome cover of Arcade Fire's "Keep The Car Running" performed by the Foo Fighters. This cover kills, its almost as good as the original. I think Dave's vocal ability is proven in this song.




Doesn't Dave Grohl look a little bit like Jesus? I saw this and thought in a very sacrilegious way that maybe this song was written as if it was sung by Jesus and he's singing it right before he is taken away by the Romans to be crucified.

read the lyrics here if you don't know them and think about it.

Love Muisc Hate Racism

Bloc Party will appear on a special compilation CD in aid of the Love Music Hate Racism campaign, given away free with the October 10th issue of NME next month. There's no official tracklisting yet, but according to the official LMHR site, the Bloc Party contribution is likely to be a Diplo remix of 'Where Is Home?'. Other artists featured on the CD include Dirty Pretty Things, Maximo Park and Lethal Bizzle.

Speaking to NME, Kele had this to say about Bloc Party's involvement in the project:

"The thing is, I heard what the BNP were proposing to do [giving away albums by white power bands outside British schools and universities] and it sent a real shiver down my spine. They're an evil organisation and the thought of them handing out stuff to young impressionable minds is incredibly frightening. Anything we can do as a band to raise awareness we will do."






Thanks to Bloc Party.net for the heads up.
