Odds & Ends

First, we get two solo albums from Big Boi and Andre 3000 on Speakerboxx/The Love Below, now we find out that only Big Boi will be touring during the upcoming Outkast tour.

Now I know why I like Popmatters so much: finally a decent review of Sound Team's new album Movie Monster. (And another instance of our calls being answered)

Lead singers from two of my favorite live shows of 2005 need to be separated at the Oxegen Music Festival in Ireland. Tom Meighan is quickly falling into the territory reserved for Oasis.

If you haven't watched Thom Yorke's performance of "The Clock" from the Henry Rollins show, do so now. The show will air on July 15th on IFC.

Who knew, Helmet is back again with a follow-up to their 2004 release, Size Matters. Monochrome is out July 18. Here is the single.
