Trent Reznor's latest project, How To Destroy Angels have leaked a new song called "Keep It Together." This is the first we have heard from How To Destroy Angels since they released a cover of Bryan Ferry's "Is Your Love Strong Enough?" for The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo.
A young man... from Chicago... in New York... with his right brain in the music business, and both ears in the music scene.

Trent Reznor Has Never Gotten Advice From Thumper's Mom (Though I Again Agree With Him)
Trent Reznor turns his attention from Chris Cornell to Prince and Rivers Cuomo.
“I’m not Prince or Rivers Cuomo who brags about having hundreds of great songs, and to that I would say, Prince, if you have a hundred great songs or a thousand, how about picking a few and putting them on your record that you’ve put out because your last several have sucked. Same for you, Rivers. I say that constructively, you know.” - Trent Reznor

Lollapalooza 2008 Day 3 Review
The day of that started with the most gripping hangover of the weekend, started with a little hiccup on the festivals end also. We got their in time to see The Weakerthans but they were no where to be found. Something happened with travel that caused them to miss. I was pretty disappointed since I was ready to see Manitoba's finest. Instead we got a lackluster set from Office. We then walked across the park to catch the last few songs from The Whigs. A band I wasn't really paying attention to since I wasn't really familiar.
We were able to stay on that end of the festival since we went to see New York's own, Brazilian Girls. This was one of the better sets of the weekend. The guys came out and started playing their grooves when they joined by the only actual girl in the band... in a short skirt, frilly white shirt and parisol. She looked like she was ready for a little burlesque action, which was totally fine. The set was great and they had a much bigger showing than I thought.
Next up was 80 dance cheesiness, Chromeo. This set was a lot of fun. We started in the back where it was hard to get into it, but when we made our way closer things improved drastically. Their stage show was nothing to write home about but the music takes care of that easily.
Then we caught Eli "Paper Boy" Reed & The True Loves. This show was a lot of fun, just because it was so different from everything else we had been seeing. It was like a throwback to the old days of blue eyed soul. We also for the first time (yes on day three) realized there was a tent with beer other than Bud and Bud Light. After enjoying a couple Stella Artois, it was off to see what turned out to be the most fun band of the entire festival.
From the stage the announcement of "are you ready, ya bastards?" and Flogging Molly began their set. Drunken Lullabies was one of the high points of the entire weekend for me. The band was great, the crowd was great, even the between song banter was great. The guy is hilarious. I got seperated from the group quickly as I found myself at the stage doing a lot of dancing.
Then it was time to see some 80's throwback and went to see Love & Rockets. The guys played well, it was my frist time seeing them. I was very young in this crowd too. Most of my group went tot he other side to see Gnarls Barkley, but I had to stay. No New Tale To Tell made my decision worth it.
The National played but I couldn't hear them at all since I set up shop to see Nine Inch Nails. Trent and the boys killed it. One of the random funny moments of the weekend had to do with the guitarist. We had been making fun of a guys hair at my hotel. My mom especially. That guy was there on the stage playing with Mr. Reznor. Any way, the set was great, Terrible Lies or Hand That Feeds were the two high points I thought.
It was another great year in Grant Park and I am already excited to see next year's lineup!
Brutal Overlap Of The Day-
Brazilian Girls and John Butler Trio
Band That I Had Never Seen And Don't Want To Miss When They Come To New York-

5 Songs I Am Into Right Now -- Lollapalooza 2008 Edition
5 Songs I Am Into Right Now -- Bigger/Older Bands
Nine Inch Nails- All The Love In The World
From the album With Teeth (2005)
Reznor's insecurities of being alone are displayed for everyone,...It starts with feelings of sadness and helplessness when it seems like the song is almost over, it totally changes gears and has a brand new upbeat/angry feel.
Rage Against The Machine- Township Rebellion
From the album Rage Against The Machine (1992)
In the best way Zach and company know how, they explain the similarites between Johannesburg, South Africa to the problems of South Central Los Angeles (written during the Rodney King riots). Just like all Rage songs, this song inspires the listener to get up and fight.
Radiohead- Lucky
From the album Ok Computer (1997)
Thom Yorke's most Dark Side of the Moon-esque moment on their third album.
Love & Rockets- Kundalini Express
From the album Express (1986)
Former goths, bring on more of a psychedelic (dare I say hair metal?) sounds that going with the Baushaus route. Bauhaus can tend to be a little pretentious, Love & Rockets left that behind.
The Raconteurs- The Switch of the Spur
From the album Consolers Of The Lonely (2008)
Jack White's other band offers the account of an escaped convicted riding through the desert. This extremely theatrical tale includes Western film/Mariachi style horns. Good luck listening to this song and not getting the horns part stuck in your head.
