Links for a day… (vol. 129)

  • Listen to Roddy’s Imperial Teen‘s fifth album Feel the Sound in its entirety here at Spin. Feel the Sound is out January 31 on Merge – pre-order here.
  • A great interview with Bill Gould from Free Gotham magazine from June 1997 has resurfaced this week. Sample quote: “The way we work musically is a democracy. This process is a little harder because the album needs to be worked out to everyone’s satisfaction. As members of the band, we all realize there is a need to compromise, but at that same time there is also the desire to be able to exercise your own artistic vision.”
  • More on Sonisphere France. Nothing confirmed yet but the Faith No More, Slash and Queen rumour first appeared in December on the Sonisphere forums.
  • Mondo Cane do Yeah at the Sydney Summer Sounds
