Paul Westerberg declared that the Replacements were done with their reunion earlier this year, but when one door closes, another opens. Westerberg has started a new band with Juliana Hatfield called the I Don't Cares, Consequence of Sound reports.

Last night in Bucharest, Romania, the Romanian metal band Goodbye to Gravity were celebrating their album release party. The show resulted in tragedy when a fire spread quickly through the venue Colectiv, CNN reports. The fire reportedly killed 27 and injured at least 187 others. The Romanian newspaper Ziarul de Iasi reports that Goodbye to Gravity's guitarists Vlad Telea and Mihai Alexandru were also killed.
According to CNN, witnesses have claimed that pyrotechnics were responsible for the fire, though authorities are reportedly still determining the fire's cause. It's also been reported that Colectiv, the club built inside a Communist-era factory, only had one exit.
The Romanian government have declared a three-day national mourning, Reuters reports.

At his recent shows, Tobias Jesso Jr. and his band Duk have been doing a loose, impromptu series of covers. One of them is Haim's "Forever", and during his show last night at the Fonda Theatre in Los Angeles, he spotted the Haim sisters in the audience. They joined him on stage to perform the song. Watch footage below, and also watch him do the "Ghostbusters" theme and OutKast's "Hey Ya". Also worth noting: Jesso was dressed as sasquatch. Thanks to Bryce Segall for the tip.

White Lung and Pink Mountaintops have teamed up as Pink Lung for a new song called "Chinese Watermelon". The song's video is wild—there are dancing mimes, a guitarist cowboy emerging from cake, people rocketing into the sky, and a golden Stephen McBean emerging from Mish Way's torso. Happy Halloween—watch it below.
The video was shot in Los Angeles and directed by Justin Gradin and Ben Jacques (who were behind White Lung's "In Your Home" video). The song itself was produced by Ryan Castle.
The track appears on the Converse-sponsored Cons EP Vol. 3, which features collaborations from artists like GZA and Sweet Valley, Kim Gordon and J Mascis, and Freddie Gibbs with Hanni El Khatib.

Southeast False Creek, or Olympic Village, is one of the hottest places to live in all of Vancouver for a number of reasons. It is true that part of the attraction lies in its proximity to the Seawall and the Canada Skytrain Line. It is also true, however, that residents rarely have to — or want to — leave the neighborhood, as it has a hip restaurants, popular pubs, an Urban Fair, a liquor store, a community centre, and more right there.
Epic at West is the final installment of Executive Group’s very successful 3-phase West collection in Southeast False Creek. And if the history of this project tells us anything, it is that these units will not last long!

The price of real estate is a constant topic of conversation in Vancouver and Reliance Properties is set to make a splash by offering a project that will enable many first-time home buyers and would-be investors to get into the downtown market.
The ‘Micro-Condos’ of 902 Davie offer plans that use space in innovative ways, with murphy beds, desks that turn into dining tables, and other tricks of the trade that have been taken from other markets where ‘micro-condos’ are already popular for those willing to trade space for the convenience of downtown living.

Erykah Badu is currently in the midst of a three-day run of "Live Nudity", a one-woman show that she is performing at Dallas' Black Academy of Arts and Letters. Before the initial performance she said the show would be largely improvised-- "I have a format, kind of, but I haven’t really had time to write a 60-minute show, so we just have to see what happens," she said previously, in addition to notes that it was "not biographical".
Now, footage has surfaced from her first performance, in which Badu did everything from performing with sock puppets to eating a bag of potato chips.
According to the Dallas Observer:
Yes, Badu dons sock puppets and, using a Rosie Perez accent, has her cotton-clad fists get into a domestic squabble that devolves into repetitions of “fuckin’ shit” until you wish one of the puppets would actually sock the other sock and knock it out. Another bit that goes stale puts Badu center stage slowly eating a bag of potato chips. That’s it. Crunch, crunch, crunch into the mic.
According to the report, Badu also told the audience that the performance was her way “as an artist … to be in control of my inconsistencies.” The show was divided into 13 scenes, and Badu sang for three of them-- the rest were a mix of improv and performance art. During the "comedy" portion of the show, Badu reportedly played "an unctuous New Age motivational speaker explaining chakras and forcing audience participation before comically dubbing patrons 'pedophiles' and 'thieves'."
"It's kind of stream-of-consciousness. I'm a pretty spontaneous artist," Badu said of the show in a separate interview with Guide Live. She said she had booked prospective performances in New York and Los Angeles theaters, but that she "chickened out."
She continued: "The title really expresses the pure honesty of my many personas. And we're not going to let you know if I'll actually be nude or not -- you're going to have to come see."

Erykah Badu will host the Soul Train Music Awards, airing on BET and Centric on November 29.

Animal Collective have shared "Michael, Remember", a 23-minute improvised jam taken from a May practice, the band's first in a year and a half. The audio is attached to underwater footage filmed at the Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary in the Gulf of Mexico. Watch it below. "Turn off the lights and watch on as big a screen as possible," the band wrote on Instagram.
Panda Bear, Avey Tare, and Geologist recorded "Michael, Remember" at Drop of Sun Studios in Asheville, North Carolina. (Deakin wasn't present.) The band wrote and rehearsed their new album at Drop of Sun, as previously reported.
The footage was filmed by marine biologist Colin Foord of Coral Morphologic, a collaboration between Foord and musician Jared McKay that explores "the visionary potential of living coral reef organisms via film, multi-media, and site-specific artworks," according to a Vimeo description posted by the band. It was shot in July 2014, and edited together with the audio this month by McKay. Geologist and Deakin assisted with the camera work and the lighting.
The band's last album was 2012's Centipede Hz. Since the release of Centipede Hz, Animal Collective have toured both as a band and as DJs. Panda Bear and Avey Tare also released solo albums.
Earlier today, Panda Bear released "Swallow at the Hollow", a 26-minute mix of unused material recorded around the same time as this year's Panda Bear Meets the Grim Reaper.

Art Brut singer Eddie Argos has two literary projects out this year. Double D is a graphic novel made in collaboration with artist Steven Horry about an overweight boy who discovers he can use his body fat as a superpower. It'll be published by Image Comics on November 11. Below, check out two pages from the comic.
Additionally, Argos, Horry, and musicians Mark Heffernan and Grant Purser have recorded a soundtrack album to accompany the comic. That will be released by Post/Pop at the end of the year.
Launch events for Double D will be held in London on November 12 at Gosh! Comics, and in Berlin on November 21 at Black Dog Comics.
Meanwhile, Argos is set to release the second edition of I Formed a Band, a memoir that tracks the rise of Art Brut. That's the cover above. A 500-copy first edition sold out earlier this year. According to a press release, "The story begins with Eddie playing the vacuum cleaner on stage in his home town of Poole, and ends up with Art Brut recording Art Brut VS Satan with Black Francis in Salem, Oregon." (Black Francis wrote the foreward for the book.)
Watch Art Brut invade DC Comics on Pitchfork.tv:
Jerry Heller, the music executive who managed N.W.A., has filed a defamation lawsuit against Dr. Dre, Ice Cube, the estate of Eazy-E, NBC Universal, and other parties associated with the Straight Outta Compton biopic, as TMZ reports. He said he never gave permission to use his likeness in the film, and that excerpts from his memoir Ruthless were used without his permission.
Heller claims the movie portrayed him as "a sleazy manager who took advantage of Eazy-E, Dr. Dre and Ice Cube," according to TMZ, and that it was filled with factual inaccuracies. Amongst those alleged inaccuracies: Heller says he wasn't fired by Eazy-E, nor did he push Dr. Dre and Ice Cube to sign bad contracts or withhold money from Cube. (He also said he didn't eat a lobster brunch when those bad contracts were being signed, as the movie depicts.)
Heller is suing for $35 million in compensatory damages as well as $75 million in punitive damages. He also wants all profits from the movie.

Today, Zane Lowe hosted a Halloween edition of his Beats 1 radio show, with special guests Haim. The sisters (who were dressed for the occasion, as evidenced in the photo above) jammed to cuts from Kanye West, Rick James, and more, and also offered a few updates.
First, their previously-announced to Beats 1 radio show, which they've titled "Haim Time", will premiere this next Thursday at 10 p.m. Eastern. Also, they said they're working on their new album "every day." "The oven is pre-heated and the oven door is open," the band said. "The fish fingers are in the tray". According to Haim, the "album's well underway", but further details on the Days Are Gone follow-up have yet to be announced.
Update (10/30 2:50 p.m. EST): Vampire Weekend's Rostam Batmanglij has shared footage of Haim working on new material in the studio. Check that out below.

Whether you live in a wet winter climate or a cold and snow blanketed one, your log home needs to be ready for old man winter. Maintenance is key to the upkeep of your home and will help ensure that your home doesn’t start to create rot, water leaks and other conditions that can affect your home. There are many things that you can do to help ensure the longevity but here are our top 3 ways to get ready for winter that don’t take a huge amount of time but can save you in the long run.
Nothing is worse than feeling a constant draft in your home or cranking up the heat to stay warm, only to have it leak outside. To do a simple check for drafts around windows and doors you can do a smoke test using an incense stick. Close all doors and windows and turn on the bathroom fan. Run the incense stick around the window and if the smoke wavers, there is a leak. Check with your local building supply store for advice on repairing this problem.
If you have older windows that are single or double pained you may want to put window plastic over them to help prevent a draft. Having plastic over your windows may not be as aesthetically appealing but it will save you on your heating bill over the winter and keep your home warm.
Throughout the summer and fall leaves and twigs fall onto your roof and can fill your gutters which can cause the water to not flow properly. Take a few minutes one afternoon to check your gutters, clear all debris and make sure that water can flow and drain easily. Once you clean the debris you can check the joints and downspouts for cracks or holes. If the drain pipe is not connected to an underground drain, make sure it is running away from your home and not pointed toward your foundation. If the water is flowing towards your house contact a local roofing company to fix it or else over time the water can lead to rot and decay.
If you don’t have the time to look after this contact a local garden and maintenance company and they can help maintain it for a minimal fee.
Whatever heating system you have in your home, be sure to check with the manufacturer’s recommendation on maintenance. Every company has a recommended checklist and these should be followed to ensure the safe and efficient running of your heat source. If you have an older model furnace, a technician can tell you if it is running efficient or if it is time to consider purchasing a newer more energy efficient model; some companies offer furnaces that run 90% plus in efficiency.
Following these few simple steps may only take a few hours to complete but can save your wallet from having to pay for added maintenance and restoration costs in the future.

Panda Bear has shared "Swallow at the Hollow", a 26-minute mix of unused material recorded around the same time as this year's Panda Bear Meets the Grim Reaper. You can listen to it above. "They kind of feel like scribbles or doodles and for some reason or another I couldn't find my way of singing with them," he wrote on Soundcloud. Find his full note below, as well as the attached art.
Swallow at the Hollow is a mix of things I made around the same time as all the Grim Reaper tracks. They kind of feel like scribbles or doodles and for some reason or another I couldn't find my way of singing with them. Some of them just stuck out like sore thumbs. I hope you enjoy them and wanted to say thanks very much for listening and thanks to those of you who came out to see the shows the past couple of years.
Happy Halloween...

Run the Jewels have shared Meow The Jewels: A Short Paw-cumentary, a short video that recaps the entire Meow the Jewels experience from start to finish. In the video, El-P and Killer Mike offer commentary on the album that started with a joke preorder listing, became a Kickstarter, and eventually enabled them to donate a lot of money to charity. (At the end, there's a visual breakdown of how the money was spent—information that was revealed last week, with news that all unused and future profits will be donated to the National Lawyer Guild's Mass Defense Committee.) Watch it below.
They've also launched a new line of Meow the Jewels merchandise that includes mousepads, t-shirts (there's one pictured above), cat food bowls, and more. Check that out here.
On the Meow the Jewels Kickstarter, El-P and Killer Mike also said they were able to donate a lot of the charity money directly to Eric Garner and Michael Brown's families. They wrote:
We are thrilled to announce that our donation to the families of Michael Brown, Jr and Eric Garner is now official. This took a bit of time but we were ultimately able to speak directly with both families so that we could ensure the money went exactly where they wanted it to. Thank you to the people at GOOD Magazine, Black Lives Matter, Erica Garner, Damon Turner and Benjamin Crump for helping us through the process. Both families are extremely thankful for your contributions. For us, this is the essential function of MTJ. Together we have pooled our resources and did something kind for people in need. We can't thank all the donors/Kickstarter funders enough for making that happen.
They added that any future profits will also go to charity:
“BUT JAIME AND MIKE… WHICH CHARITY????” - good fucking question. We are trying to determine where the rest of the profit will go once it rolls in, but our idea is to try and set up some sort of scholarship fund for the children of victims of police brutality. If that doesn’t prove possible, we will pick from one of the many great and established charities out there to give the dough to. Once we figure it out we will let everyone know.

Toronto producer Grandtheft has shared a video for his track "Quit This City", which features Toroto pop singer Lowell. Directed by John Poliquin and shot in Barcelona, the clip tells the story of a sex worker. Watch it below, via Pitchfork.tv
According to the video's makers:
Shot across two nights in Barcelona with a primarily Spanish cast and crew, these scenes are a combination of conventional filmmaking and on-the-wall documentary observations. Many of the scenes were filmed in the rowdy nightlife district where the camera had to be concealed at points for safety. The scenes where the girls are working the corner was photographed on a long lens from across the street, which led to the actresses being approached by both police and men looking to hire sex workers. Some of the men who approached the actresses were disrespectful and harassing, which unfortunately mirrored the malicious spirit of the final man in the film.
"Quit This City" is off of Grandtheft's EP Quit This City, which is out today via Mad Decent/Pirates Blend.

Will Butler has shared a video for his Policy single "What I Want", which features Jennifer Morrison of the TV series "House". Directed by Brantley Gutierrez, the video has Butler and Morrison entering a punk club frequented by a bunch of unruly kids, whom they turn into "boring parents" (as described in the video credits) by way of a special ray gun. Perry Farrell makes a cameo as one of those boring parents, too. Watch it below via Nerdist, who also did a behind-the-scenes featurette on the making of the video.
Butler shared a statement about the making of the video:
Filming this video felt like a rock and roll laser tag birthday party. The kids were amazing-upbeat and hilarious the whole shoot. Such civilized anarchists. And-to mix metaphors, I guess-Jennifer Morrison was a real Albus Dumbledore, wise and unflappable and insanely talented. She truly classed up the rest of us muggles.
In other news, Arcade Fire are currently without a label following the release of 2013's Reflektor. On top of that, the rights to Funeral and Neon Bible have reverted back to them. According to their manager, Scott Rodger, they might not try to sign a new deal for their upcoming record. He talked about their situation in an interview with Music Business Worldwide, as Arcade Fire Tube points out:
They’re a huge touring act who sell around 1.6m – 2m albums each time. We’re out of our deal, they have no deal, plus most of their catalogue has reverted back to them. So they’ve got all the rights to their first mini-album, all the rights to Funeral and Neon Bible. The Suburbs comes back in the summer of 2017 and the next year we get back Reflektor.
We can do a futures deal; we can go to any label and sign the whole catalogue plus futures now. The question is, why would we? I sat with the band the other week: they’re not bread-heads, they don’t care about [a big payday]. They have a couple of studios, so they don’t need studio time to make their next record. They’ll fund it themselves, which they’ve done for every album anyway. They just want to do what’s smart. We can do physical with a boutique company and do some really nice vinyl. We can partner with a tech company. We can sign up to a digital aggregator. There are a lot of options.

Purchasing a new sectional sofa can be confusing with varieties of options to choose from. But before you make your choice, here are the 3 common sectional sofa styles that you may want to consider.
Standard L-Shaped
If your room requires an L-shaped sectional rather than a rounded one, beware the limitations of the one-cushion square corner. It will be the very last seat people want. Unless they like to sit on their legs (ouch!), their only other option will be to tangle their legs with the people sitting on either side of them. Not fun. Source: Forbes
U-Shaped
A U-shaped sectional sofa is ideal for conversations because it allows everyone to face each other. It can resemble three sofas pushed together to form two 90-degree angles. It can also be made of two chaises at each end of a sofa or of two sofas and one chaise, both forming a U-shape. Source: Wayfair
Recliner
Recliner sectionals include one or more recliners, either in the center or on the ends of the furniture. Popular extra features include a table, console, and cup holders. These sectionals are ideal for families who enjoy recliner chairs but do not have much room in the home to place them. They come in several styles and sizes, and some feature other furniture pieces that users can separate and rearrange. Source: Ebay
Now that you know the common sectional sofa styles, it’s time to choose which one best suits your home style. Please give us a call or contact us here.

Getting a mortgage can be a hard process. Here are some tips to know to improve your chances of getting a mortgage, including: improving credit rating, paying off debt and avoiding lavish purchases and job changes.
Below are 3 tips to improve your chance of getting a mortgage:
Improving Credit Rating
If you have had serious debt problems in the recent past then you are going to struggle to find a lender willing to take you on, but if your transgressions are more minor you might be able to do something about it.
Take a look at your record yourself to ensure you do not get penalised as a result of someone’s mistake. The major credit reference agencies all offer access to your records, some on a free trial basis. “If you’ve any doubts about what they show why wouldn’t you check them when you can do it at little or no cost?” says Hollingworth. If there are errors, you can contact the organisations involved to correct them. If there are problems that you think might cause a problem, flag them up at the earliest possible opportunity.

Paying off Debt
Reduce your total debt — your monthly payments on cars, student loans, credit cards — before you start the mortgage application.

Last year, former Vivian Girl Katy Goodman brought back her La Sera moniker for Hour of the Dawn. Today, she's announced the latest chapter in that project: Music for Listening to Music To, a full-length LP due out next March on Polyvinyl. Ryan Adams produced the new record, as Rolling Stone reports. The album was recorded last spring at Adams' Pax-Am studio.
According to Adams, his work with Goodman and company in the studio eventually inspired his Taylor Swift cover album 1989. "If it wasn't for [Music for Listening to Music To], the 1989 record would have never happened," he told Rolling Stone.
Following their initial meeting on the first day of recording, Adams and La Sera's Todd Wisenbaker and Nate Lotz would eventually team up for 1989. "As soon as that record was done," Adams told Rolling Stone, "I was like, 'I have to go on the road for a minute, but as soon as I'm back, let's make something. Let's just jam.'"
Wisenbaker said:
We did three songs that first night, just loosely jamming, and [Ryan] tweeted about it, and it went berserko. The next day we're like, 'Oh, God, we actually have to do this.' Not that we wouldn't have done it well before, but actually, people are going to hear this.
Recently, Goodman and Wisenbaker were married. He's listed as an official collaborator and vocalist on Music for Listening to Music To, after previously producing and playing guitar on Hour of the Dawn.
Check out a trailer for the album below.

"Third Ear Transmission" is from Kode9's new album, Nothing, which is out November 13 via Hyperdub. Find the album art below.
The concept for the tour centers around the "Nøtel," a "evacuated, fully automated, luxury hotel" whose logo appears on the cover of Nothing. Here's how a press release describes it:
The project explores a post-scarcity world in which the only thing in short supply is humans. The performance guides the audience on a first-person tour through the uncanny architecture of the Nøtel. In sprawling chambers deep within slick glass corridors, they encounter warped spaces, quantum clouds, gravitational pools, dancing voids and holograms of the dead.
Find the dates below.

11-11 Montreal, Quebec - Le Belmont
11-12 Vancouver, British Columbia - Fortune Sound
11-13 San Francisco, CA - f8
11-14 Chicago, IL - East Room

Yeah Yeah Yeahs' Karen O has been involved with a number of film soundtracks over the past several years – Where the Wild Things Are, Her, and The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo – and in the past week, she's been back in the soundtracking game, this time for a TV show and a video game.
Not long after covering Animotion's "Obsession" for the opening sequence of Starz's ballet-themed drama Flesh and Bone, Karen has penned "I Shall Rise", a new original song for the upcoming video game Rise of the Tomb Raider, which is slated to hit stores November 10, as Rolling Stone points out. Below, check out an excerpt of the song as part of a trailer for the forthcoming game; the track will be released in full tomorrow.
Speaking with Rolling Stone, Karen O – who clarifies that she is not a gamer – offered her thoughts on the new track and explained how it came to be:
It all sounded really tasty. They wanted drama and high-stakes and melodrama. That was very appealing to me because I love making music connected to a storyline. It was all stuff I loved like having the theme song to [Lara Croft] becoming an icon and the creation myth to the moment she becomes Lara.
The Yeah Yeah Yeahs frontwoman and her husband, Barnaby Clay, recently welcomed a son – an experience that she says inspired "I Shall Rise":
Some of the themes [Microsoft] gave me was transformation and survival and realizing one's own destiny and pushing past one's own limits, which is basically everything I've been going through with a newborn baby the past two months. I've been going through my own transformation.
Last year, Karen O said that Yeah Yeah Yeahs were on "a bit of a hiatus": an arrangement that seems unlikely to change anytime soon, based on her comments in Rolling Stone. "It's just waiting to see how everything works out with starting a family and seizing the moment when it strikes," she told the magazine, "I'm in the full-time job of [motherhood] at the moment."

The Crystal Method have accused the Kremlin of using their song "High Roller" to soundtrack a propaganda video of airstrikes in Syria without their permission. The video, which was produced by the state-run broadcaster VGTRK, shows combat in Jobar, a suburb of Damascus, the Syrian capital. It makes prominent usage of the 1997 track, which the group says was completely unauthorized. "Our hearts go out to the people of Syria affected by this terrible war and their friends and families," they wrote in a statement.
Find the full statement below.
It has come to our attention over the last 24 hours that the Kremlin via Russian state broadcaster VGTRK have used our song 'High Roller' as the soundtrack to some shocking drone footage from Syria. The use of our music in this context is in no way authorized and The Crystal Method do not condone the use of violence for the resolution of any conflict. Our hearts go out to the people of Syria affected by this terrible war and their friends and families.

On the latest episode of "WTF With Marc Maron", Marc Maron welcomed Steve Albini to his garage. The two of them talked about Albini's high school days in Montana, his father's engineering career, and much more. Listen to it here.
Albini reminisced about his experience watching weird punk bands, including one act where a rat ran over the singer's body as they performed. He talked about his antipathy for what disco became ("When you see these mustached schmucks in their silk shirts, it's easy to be offended by that culturally without being offended by the gay and soul music roots"), his apathy for the Pixies ("They were fine") despite his deep respect for Kim Deal's music, and his experience knowing the young Fred Armisen in Chicago before he became an "Saturday Night Live" star ("He made himself famous").
He also said hanging out with the Stooges (Albini recorded their 2007 LP The Weirdness) rates as the coolest thing he's ever done, and confirms that Iggy Pop hangs out with his shirt off all the time.
