More Love



Courtney Love gave an interview on the Howard Stern show claiming she had an affair with Gavin Rossdale. Rossdale is currently married to Gwen Stefani and has not released a statement on this allegation. So Courtney Love went from possibly-talented artist, to drug addict, to Cobain-killer, to an even bigger drug addict, to wannabe Barbie, to home-wrecker. Great job, Love!

Brandon Flowers


Brandon Flowers, lead singer of the Killers, is releasing a solo album entitled Flamingo. Flowers claims that the band did not break up, they are simply on hiatus until he's done with his solo career. I'll definitely be checking this out. Hopefully Flamingo is not as terrible as the Killers' last few albums.

Scream 4 OFFICIAL!!!!


So, a few blogs ago I mentioned that Scream 4 is in talks of being made. Now, Kevin Williamson, the writer of the first two Screams announced that they will begin shooting this spring. The cast will include Courtney Cox, Neve Campbell, and David Arquette, the original cast. The movie is due to be released sometime around April 2011. Wes Craven will be directing with Dimension Films studio. Can't wait :)

Blur


Blur released a new single after seven years. The new song is called "Fool's Day." It was recorded in early April and is the first new material anyone's seen from the band since 2003. There will only be "1,000 limited edition 7" vinyl singles sold at 150 participation music shops in UK." Blur's record label is really excited about this single and are hoping for an upcoming album.

Keane Politics


Keane got pretty upset when the Conservative Party played "Everybody's Changing" at a London conference. Apparently the Conservative Party did not ask the band's permission...Big whoop.

Robert Pattinson to Play Cobain


So, it seems like Robert Pattinson might suck in another movie, an upcoming biopic of Nirvana frontman, Kurt Cobain. According to Pattinson, this is his "dream role" because he has always considered himself more of a musician, not an actor. For my sanity, I really hope something goes terribly right and Rob Pattinson does not get the privilege of playing Kurt Cobain. Please Rob, step away from the Cobain script and go pick up a guitar. GO, GO, GO!
