When you think of DC's Dark Knight. Batman, you automatically think of Gotham Cities night backdrop, darkened alleyways and the worlds most sadistic villains. So why is it when it comes to soundtracks and album's based on the series films or games, labels choose the strangest selection of songs? We'll let the whole Prince soundtrack slide because he's well....Prince. Duh. Normally when I think of Batman soundtracks the first song that comes to mind is Seal's " Kiss From A Rose " and I have no bad things to say about that song because it's still a classic.

This is a solid new soundtrack to a highly anticipated video game.]]> text/html 2011-10-03T19:19:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3763847/new-releases-for-the-week-of-october-4-2011/
Though this week's new releases is full of all sorts of very exciting releases (such as a whole bunch of vinyl reissues from Dinosaur Jr. and a DVD from "Weird Al" Yankovic 's latest round of touring), we're most giddy about the new album from AIDS Wolf , Ma Vie Banale Avant-Garde (pictured). But, of course, the new releases don't stop there. Bar/None puts out the latest from Emperor X , Warner Bros. has a new one from Mutemath , and FatCat releases an album from We Were Promised Jetpacks .

"This city's lost its hope," Coheed and Cambria frontman Claudio Sanchez whispers on "Deranged", just one of 12 original cuts for the upcoming Batman game, Arkham City . The follow-up to 20092s critical and commercial juggernaut Arkham Asylum , the new game pits Batman against an entire city of deranged criminals in a very John Carpenter-esque storyline (think: Escape from New York ). To hype the multi-platform game, several artists have come on board for the companion album, including The Duke Spirit, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, and, as heard here, Coheed and Cambria. "I [...]]]> text/html 2011-09-07T02:51:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3702323/coheed-and-cambria-black-rebel-motorcycle-club-and-more-appearing/
Normally, when I talk about video game soundtracks it's primarily me reflecting on classic Nintendo theme songs from my youth. Video game soundtracks covered on the RiO!B were either from Guitar Hero (RIP) or Rock Band (RIP as well) or the new installments of Madden . But a new and unexpected player has entered the discussion and may raise some eyebrows...or I guess in this case, cowl brows. Batman: Arkham City is a game I'm definitely looking forward to since I'm a fan of the amazing first game [...]]]> text/html 2011-07-16T07:35:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3582710/serj-tankian-dei-system-of-a-down-posta-un-video/

Il video stato linkato dal suo profilo su Twitter , accompagnato dalle parole: "New music? Nahhhhh...Okay, maybe" ( Nuova musica? Nahhhhh...Okay, forse ). Il punto ora stabilire su cosa Tankian sta lavorando. Sar il nuovo disco dei System ? Oppure il successore di "Imperfect Harmonies", secondo capitolo datato 2010?

After revealing plans to reunite and record a new album late last year , Garbage has been mum on the details for their first new music since 20052s Bleed Like Me . Now, though, the Scottish alt-rock band are slowly revealing more definitive plans. But instead of teasing a single or playing a show, the band is leaving the reins of the hype parade to frontwoman Shirley Manson , who has released a new song called "The Hunger", which you can check out above. The tune originates from the soundtrack for [...]]]> text/html 2011-03-05T18:22:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3257362/this-shit-is-amazing/

Got 79p kicking about that you'd like to swap for something lovely and which will also help stand up to governments who would abuse human rights? Get yourself to the iTunes store and buy The Hunger , lifted from the Prometheus Bound musical and bringing together Shirley Manson and Serj Tankian. It's all in aid of Amnesty International, so doubly worth investigating. -- Visit No Rock & Roll Fun to comment, complain and kvetch]]> text/html 2011-02-25T07:24:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3233773/serj-tankians-prometheus-bound-musical-premiering-today/
