Mount Eerie - Clear MoonWashington's Phil Elverum sheds musical skins at a rapid rate. From the dissolution of the Microphones (the nom de plume with which he courted as much fame as a K Records alumnus can) a couple of years ago, to the creation of Mount Eerie , Elverum's new project, which itself has flitted between the Microphones' lo-fi folk thrash to the likes of Wind's Poem , ostensibly inspired by Norwegian death metal. There is one noticeable similarity in everything Elverum's done: each record is notable for its lo-fidelity and high concepts, tracks linked as much by the hiss of ...The 40523 May 2012

Video: Hot Chip -"Night & Day"Hot Chip 's boy-band-parodying video for "I Feel Better" is one of the most hilariously WTF music videos so far this year. But, now it's got some competition ... from another Hot Chip video, this time for "Night & Day". For both videos the UK electro-disco-pop band partnered with British comedian Peter Serafinowicz for hilarious results. The "Night & Day" video features some monks worshiping an egg-shaped idol through interpretive dancing and also has supermodel Lara Stone and comedian/singer Reggie Watts dueling in flying saucers. Yep. Watch below. Fresh? TweetOh So Fresh! Music23 May 2012

This Week's Best Album Streams: 22nd May 201 ..What a week it's been for album streams. The 405 has already brought you links to St Etienne, Alt-J, El-P and more, not forgetting the international live stream of the new Sigur Rós album- which was like gathering around the wireless listing to the Radio 1 Evening Session for the first play of Love Spreads all over again. But the week was marred by the deaths of Donna Summer, Robin Gibb and Donald ‘Duck' Dunn, all of whom influenced the music you listen to today. So respect their achievements by listening to their legacies at the core of this ...The 40522 May 2012

New Music Video: Hot ChipHot Chip is moving towards their next full length LP, In Our Heads. First single "Night and Day" (which is very Hot Chip, we might add) has a new video, also starring Reggie Watts and supermodel Lara Stone. The video features a bunch of swimsuit wearing monks worshiping a giant egg, which believe it or not, is not the strangest concept for a Hot Chip music video to date.

Video: DARKSIDE – “A1″The opener of DARKSIDE’s wonderful EP got a video this week that looks like what your weird friends think they’re doing when they go out to the desert. It follows three apocalyptic monks on a quest to find things that shine in a way that works well with Nicolas Jaar’s eerily propellant and open “A1″ [...]Quit Mumbling18 May 2012

Monks of Mellonwah: Neurogenesis EPMiddle-of-the-road rock trying to get loud and nasty. The Neurogenesis EP by Australian quartet Monks of Mellonwah . They used three different big name producers for four tracks. Jeff Bova (Michael Jackson), Ryan Miller (RM Music), Howie Weinberg (Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, RHCP) have ironed out all the wrinkles and found each other in a radio friendly sound that is adequate and mostly harmless. A&R; will love them, the general public will pick them up and drop them when the next one comes along. All the promise that was showing on in their previous EP Stars Are Out , with the stand-out track ...Here comes the flood7 May 2012

One night, about fourteen years ago, I watch ..One night, about fourteen years ago, I watched a movie at Adam Yauch’s apartment. It was a movie about the Tibetan struggle for liberation, a cause he deeply cared about, and I was invited — I think — because he knew about my background with the Hare Krishna movement and the time I spent in India. From what I can recall, he had something to do with the production of the film, and the version we watched was a rough edit. He was looking for criticism, suggestions, feedback. I have no idea if it ever got made. Yauch lived in Soho ...Nervous Acid5 May 2012

Derdiyoklar Ikilisi - Disko Folkby Bill Meyer Just how Germany became the place to break in a band is a question someone ought to snag for a Master's thesis. But think about it: Before they went to Germany, The Beatles were nobody. Before they went to Germany, The Monks didn't even exist. And Germany is where the Turkish duo Derdiyoklar...
