Today's Quick Mention:  There's a couple of good shows set for tonight.  Islands are playing at the Parish, and Edward Sharpe And The Magnetic Zeroes will be at La Zona Rosa.  I think both bands are worth seeing, but it might be more interesting to see how good or bad the latter works in a live setting.

I knew the people out in Hollywood had once again assembled a bunch of indie acts for the soundtrack to the latest Twilight flick, but I guess I must have totally missed the part that mentioned the compilation having something brand spanking new from Battles (as a bonus track).  Why didn't any of you crazy kids tell me this?  Anyhow, give it a listen below.  Enjoy.

:Battles - The Line:  This starts off as any standard rock song would, so I have to say that at first I was a little worried the guys had simply turned in something accessible for all the tweens that will surely rush out and buy the soundtrack.  But, as if they figured everyone would think that, this quickly turns loud and goes to a kind of sonically advanced place that only Battles can.  Feel free to blow your speakers out with this.
