Earlier today I heard some old She Wants Revenge on the radio and thought to myself, “What happened to them? I haven’t heard of anything new coming from them…”
WELL, guess what? They came out with a brand new album last month, Valleyheart! Where have I been? Anyways, I am so excited to see they JUST came out with new stuff — and didn’t just disappear (it’s been since 2007 since we’ve gotten a new release from them).
Check out the video for “Must Be The One” — I LOVE both the video and the song! Must check out the rest of the album when I get a chance!

R.E.M. premiered the video for “Every Day Is Yours To Win” on YouTube, a video composed entirely of footage from YouTube. As a bonus, lead singer Michael Stipe and the video’s co-director Jim McKay have posted an intro video featuring a list of their favorite YouTube clips. The “Every Day Is Yours To Win” video is part of the Collapse Into Now Film Project, where artists and filmmakers were asked to create short films for each song on the new R.E.M. album Collapse Into Now.
From what I understand, the video for “Every Day Is Yours To Win” is only supposed to be up for 24 hours, so go check it out now!
