Grindhouse is a double-feature exploitation flick with the first part brought by Robert Rodriguez (who's responsible for Sin City)-Planet Terror,and the second by the godlike Quentin Tarantino-Death Proof.The movie premiers in April,probably won't show in Australia (where,a local newspaper called The Last Kiss 'controversial & insightful'-for fuck's sake,that was the biggest piece of self-indulgent stupidass shit i had seen in a long,long time-calling it boring or hollow would be a fucking praise.Paul Haggis should be decapitated)-but the overwhelming anticipation for Grindhouse steadily goes worldwide.Two awesome new posters and a second trailer was released couple days back.

And,here are two bands i've just discovered-their music's just so fucking great,it's undescripably orgasmic my brain threatens to explode.

The first:Tokyo Police Club.Like Coldplay,minus the depressing life themes or occasional overuse of ominous keyboard sounds,and a lot more playful and experimental.Recommended:Nature of the experiment,Citizens of Tomorrow,Be Good

Second:The Noisettes.Their songs are not all pure rock,some of the songs are slower but the vocalist keeps the feel right by knowing how to control her voice and not going overboard or turning it into a sleezefest.If there's a female-lead rockband that can compare to The YeahYeahYeah's,it's either The Gossip or this.This band is fucking superb.Recommended:Monte Cristo,Don't Give Up,Burn

Speaking of music,vids for Regina Spektor's Samson and Amy Winehouse' Back to Black premiered recently,and Jet will be kicking off their Aussie Tour mid-year,starting with their 25 May Palais Theatre gig in Melbourne (thanks for the heads up Mae!),will definitely consider getting ticks.Meanwhile,the course workload is starting to add up and in such time of building stress,there's just no space for slow,mellow music.It's rock all the way from here,all the way up,down and up again.
