MySpace Trawl – Nedry
We seem to have neglected the wonderful world of glitch recently. To a lot of people, it sounds like a needle has been dragged across a record and the results recorded. We like the sound of something that sounds a bit raw, uncommercial and generally exciting. Fuck your cleanly polished studio sounding production where the vocal goes through seventy two filters to make it sound as clean as a whistle. Going through various stages, there is everything here from Nedry. Sassy sounding vocals go alongside the sweeping sounding electronics that slowly build momentum before crashing in to one final rhythm.

Some School Offers Post-Graduate Beatles Degree, Calls It Education
Usually when hecklerspray attends job interviews with a resume in-hand, the interviewers ask us things like "That thar piece a paper say you know how to dig graves?" Which it doesn't - and it never has. For years the only thing our resume has had printed on it are the words me, work and good. So far no takers, likely due to the economic climate. Our resume is probably in need of a makeover - once we have our absolutely real degree in advanced Beatles-ology from Liverpool Hope University - that's probably when potential employers will stop pushing us out of things.

Kerry Katona Wants To Howl Again
She's been filmed giving birth and having her boobs hacked open, but now Kerry Katona is planning something even more horrifying. We've saved this post until late in the day because we're genuinely worried that, if you read it in the morning, it'd be too much to bear and you'd end up fatally attacking yourself in the face with the nearest piece of office equipment. So, now that we can only ruin a small part of the rest of your day, here goes. Kerry Katona wants to relaunch her singing career. We know, it makes us want to cry too.

MySpace Trawl – Golden Silvers
Our only previous experience with gold and silver came when we watched The Crystal Maze where, at the end of the show, the contestants had to collect as many gold tokens as possible and discard the silver ones. Whilst we aren’t completely sure if Golden Silvers took their name from this concept from The Crystal Maze, we do know that they make indie music that isn’t self-indulgent twaddle about not being able to fit in to a size six pair of skinny jeans. We’ll even go as far as saying that they’ll break the mainstream in 2009.

Paris Hilton Threatens To Release Craptastic Album Number Two
“Mwahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh dbbbbbbbbbbbbb bbbbbbb quyuair fijdfff fffffblkurrrrrrrrrrrrrghhhhhh.” If you've never been lucky enough to hear anything from Paris Hilton’s self-titled debut album, we’ve basically summed up how it sounds above. Senseless screams that not even studio engineering could cover up were released by the heiress who wrongly thought we’d all go “omg that is so like awesomely mega kewl!” when we heard it. With disastrous sales you’d think the message would be clear and our wonk-eyed American friend would stop making music. Sadly not it seems - Paris Hilton has is apparently planning to annoy us again, this time with an album inspired by Kylie Minogue.

Joaquin Phoenix Has Had It Up To Here With This Acting Lark
We have some unbearably sad news for you - well, some unbearably sad news if you happened to like We Own The Night, anyway. No? Nobody liked that film? OK, well we have some unbearably sad news if you happened to like Reservation Road. What? None of you liked that either? The Village? Ladder 49? Signs? Brother Bear? Nothing? You didn't like any of them? What about 8MM, for crying out loud? Everyone liked 8MM, right? No? Christ, alright, look. What we're trying to tell you is that Joaquin Phoenix has decided to quit acting forever. But before you start shrugging, bear this in mind - Joaquin Phoenix has quit acting so that he can focus on his music career. That sound you can hear right now? That's the sound of your soul groaning.

Christina Aguilera Becomes A Weird Space Cyborg Thing
As we all know, there's only room for one gormless-looking, vaguely past-it American blonde dimwit in the world of pop at a time. And, as we speak, that gormless-looking, vaguely past-it American blonde dimwit happens to be Britney Spears, with her shiny hair and lovely big desperate-looking eyes. That's not great news for Christina Aguilera, who also happens to be a gormless-looking, vaguely past-it American blonde dimwit. She's got a new album coming out soon! Grr! But Christina Aguilera is nothing if not resourceful, and so to promote her new video Keeps Gettin' Better she's decided to become a gormless-looking, vaguely past-it American purple-haired dimwit instead. That's fiendishly clever of Christina Aguilera - so fiendishly clever that it almost made us forget that the song is dreadful. Almost. Video after the jump.

James Blunt Promises To Quit Music Forever For Money!
Quick! Stop what you’re doing. If you thought the biggest announcement of the year was that time travelling thing that'd tell us the secrets of the universe, you’re wrong! We’ve got something much more important to tell you, something that will cause the world's population to sigh in unison. It's James Blunt. He might write all sorts of songs that get used in chick flicks, love albums and as a weapon to torture terror suspects, but this could soon stop. You see, James Blunt has promised to sew his mouth shut for the right amount of money. Or never step foot in a recording studio again, at least.
