Trent Reznor has stayed true to his retirement of Nine Inch Nails and began working on a new project with his wife Mariqueen Maandig, from West Indian Girl. In brilliant Reznor fashion, he’s developed a catchy name which is easily formed into an acronym and correlating iconic logo (sound familiar?). It’s called How to Destroy Angels and just like all recent Reznor works, you can download their 6-track debut EP for free. For $2, you can upgrade to the HD package, which adds options for lossless audio (24-bit 44.1kHz WAV and 16-bit FLAC and Apple Lossless) and the music video for “The Space in Between” in 1080p and 480p. You can also get an immediate download after purchasing any merchandise from the band’s website, official T-shirts, posters and stickers. Listen up kids – that’s how you do it without a record label.

The music’s production is reminiscent of the Nine Inch Nails album With Teeth (with a touch of Year Zero beats). Which was Reznor’s return to the music industry and touring as well as a ‘back to basics’ recording style not seen on his previous two records. Mariqueen’s on main vocals with Trent backing and a mirage of synths, guitar effects, dirty beats and what sounds like mostly Trent’s words: upon first listen it reminded me of the short lived 12 Rounds, which released an album in ’98 on Reznor’s now defunct Nothing label. It’s great to see such a talent as Reznor back in the studio giving his grotesquely loyal and obsessive fans something to chat about online.

How To Destroy Angels full length CD will be in stores July 6th and a vinyl edition will follow.

An art show consisting of 100 records. Sonny Smith of Sonny & The Sunsets based 100 records on the fantasy of creating fictional records with fictional covers and band names. Sonny recorded real music for the pieces, which were done by over 90 different artist. The music was put into a jukebox built by Sonny and friends. Each record on the wall has a number which corresponds with its song on the jukebox. What a great idea, and fun topic to explore.

A new Documentary film from Jacob Boyd, covering the knoxville Goth Scene Circa 2005-2006.

Soon we’ll be starting a podcast for the blog, which will be available on this site and itunes. Blake has done some extensive work to make this happen and I think the Twilight Frequencies community is stoked to hear some of the upcoming DJs we have lined up. This is the new cover art for Laces upcoming DJ mix. Laces is actually my band, and we’re delighted to have worked on this for the upcoming podcast. Below you will find a mix description,and artwork. Stay tuned for more music releases from the band, and a Laces music player with new tunes. We hope to have an album ready by July of this year, but if not, there will be plenty of tunes floating around this here atmosphere. Peace!

“The multiplication of sounds through other sounds, equals the distance between the beginning and the end.” –Laces–

Volume One by Laces called “SPUR” features The Flaming Lips, Bob Dylan, Cassius, The Sea and Cake, Andrew Bird, and Neon Indian. This first go around also includes (among other things), The Velvet Underground and an original song by Laces called “Generations Games,” which is off the upcoming record.

In this Volume, Laces uses an experimental means to project the tone. It’s a mash up, coupling unlikely artists to form an adventure, glimmering with enough changes to keep the mood shifting.

Stay Tuned for Volume Two by Laces, and the upcoming record.

Volume One will be coming very soon!

Last year we did our first interview with Jacob Boyd. We covered many things and touched on his other project making music. In This short music video we get to witness his eyes supporting his ears and vice versa.

The music video made me want more, it plays like a brilliant preview of what’s to come, leaving the person viewing to sit in curiosity, and the possibility of more footage. I look forward to the next music and visual interpretation by this exceptional Artist.
