Neil Young Releases 40-Minute "Silent" Film to Accompany Americana

It seems that the four promo clips for Neil Young and Crazy Horse's Americana using vintage film clips were all leading up to this.

Today, Young released a forty-minute silent-style film to accompany the release of the album, coming on June 5. Directed by Young's alter-ego, Bernard Sharkey, the film follows an author as he looks for the right illustrations for a book he is writing on American songs. The songs, including the previously released shorts, are interspersed between the newly shot footage which has a piano accompaniment.

The illustrations shown in the film are by designer/illustrator Shepard Fairey and will be available for viewing at Perry Rubinstein Gallery in Los Angeles for the next two months.

To see the full film, go to NPR.

Red Hot Chili Peppers Have Big Plans for New Music on Vinyl

The Red Hot Chili Peppers have been busy making small hints about their next project which appears to be a series of vinyl and digital releases of b-sides and other previously unreleased music.

A total of 18 sides are planned for release over the next six months although titles and a schedule are not known. It is known from Twitters by both Flea and Chad Smith that there will be a total of ten b-sides from their latest release I'm With You.

The details, as we know them, were floated out over the last four days with lead singer Anthony Kiedis first telling a Grand Rapids crowd "We gotta storm of seven inches coming out over the next six months. Keep one eye open."

That was followed by tweets from Smith and Flea:

Chad Smith (Sunday):
Hi! Over the next 6 months at least 10 more IWU b sides I promise!

7 inch vinyl and digital...stay tuned
Flea (Tuesday):
yes we have been writing stuff while touring. We are also going to put out 18 new songs over the next 6 months on 7 inch and digi
Stay tuned for more details.
