Today's Quick Mention: A local band
known as The Gary recently did a two part Hardly
Sound
session
with Randy Reynolds, who is Leatherbag and runs a
video music magazine called Stuck. You should
check it out. It'll make you life at least 70%
better.
I can't blame any artist for doing whatever it takes
to market themselves and stay current, but I think
I'll always find it a little strange that the Arcade
Fire specifically wrote a track for The Hunger
Games. Oh well. At least it's
killer. The soundtrack also features the
Decemberists, Neko Case, the Low Anthem, and many
more. It's due out March 20. Enjoy.

Fire - Abraham's Daughter: If you're like me and thought there were some moments
that were too slow (aka boring) on AF's last album, then
this will restore your faith in their ability to keep things
interesting. Here's hoping they keep moving in this
direction, as their usual epic ways work rather well when
they're given a once over with an ominous touch.
