BA Newsletter 10.18
*This Sunday on British Accents radio - new music from THE ORDINARY BOYS, RODDY WOOMBLE, THE RIFLES and more - tune in Sundays 6-7pm on WMFO 91.5 FM, online at iTunes radio and www.wmfo.org
*CMJ has posted the full lineup for the CMJ Music Marathon happening on Oct 31 - Nov 4. Head to www.cmj.com, or check the NYC show listings as I've taken the time to narrow it down to about 10 must-see shows per day featuring bands of interest to Brit/indie music fans. Let me know if you're going - I'll be there 11/1-5.
*OASIS will have some competition for their "Stop the Clocks" November 21 release - from THE BEATLES. "LOVE" will feature new versions of classic Beatles tracks. This isn't the first time Oasis and their primary influence have gone head-to-head - the Fab Four released two "new" singles in 1995 around the time "Wonderwall" was blowing up.
*Get ready for new SHINS material - the lead UK single is "Phantom Limb", and it gets a digital UK release on November 13 and a physical release the following week. Expect the track to be available in the US around the same time. "Wincing The Night Away" is out on January 23 in the US.
*BABYSHAMBLES will release a new UK EP on December 4 titled "The Blinding EP", providing Pete doesn't do anything stupid between now and the release date.
*Q Magazine has released its list of nominees for the aptly titled Q Music Awards. ARCTIC MONKEYS, KEANE, SCISSOR SISTERS, RAZORLIGHT, and MUSE lead the way with the most nominations.
*THE KLAXONS, who had planned to play a handful of November US dates, have postponed their stateside visit until early 2007 so they can finish work on their debut album.
*Another set of Brit newcomers, LITTLE MAN TATE, are coming to the states and they'll make their Boston debut on November 5 at Great Scott with THE CHANGES and MONSTERS ARE WAITING.
*SPOON fans might want to check out the "Stranger Than Fiction" soundtrack out on November 7, featuring a score composed partially by BRITT DANIEL, and a new song from the band called "The Book I Write". Also included on the soundtrack are songs by M83, MAXIMO PARK, THE JAM and more. The movie is out on November 10 and stars Will Farrell.
*BRMC are working on their 4th album, due out next year. According to NME the disc will be similar in style to the more rootsy "Howl" album from last year.
