Okay, this ought to be taken with a grain of salt, considering the source, but still, thought it was worth noting.

anyone hear anything about this?

― s1utsky (slutsky), Thursday, 5 June 2003 01:28 (twenty-two years ago)

Heard something about it the other day. I ponder at it duly.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 5 June 2003 01:32 (twenty-two years ago)

no, and i can't find that news anywhere else.

is it just me or is that Ain't It Cool guy one of the most punchable people in existence?

The fact that this movie stars Bill Murray and is set in Tokyo also interests me greatly.

― s1utsky (slutsky), Thursday, 5 June 2003 01:44 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah fuck Kevin Shields! BILL MURRAY is in this film! I don't care if it has another AIR score!

"there'll be a new MBV record this year, I promise"

yeah, 'illusive' works.

― electric sound of jim (electricsound), Thursday, 5 June 2003 02:00 (twenty-two years ago)

lacking reality

because he's actually AXL ROSE

this film is due to be released right after the next MBV album which will feature musical cameos by Syd Barrett, Miles Davis, and Tchaikovsky.

― Mike Taylor (mjt), Thursday, 5 June 2003 02:01 (twenty-two years ago)

The Virgin Suicides is one of my favorite movies ever. And Bill Murray is a goddamned genius. I can't wait to see what comes out of all this.

(nb: I'm indifferent to Kevin Shields and any involvement he may/not have in the project... but don't tell Ned.)

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Thursday, 5 June 2003 02:01 (twenty-two years ago)

Q: why do they call is Chinese Democracy?

A: Because it doesn't exist.

― electric sound of jim (electricsound), Thursday, 5 June 2003 02:03 (twenty-two years ago)

is that a Darn1elle'ism?

― Mike Taylor (mjt), Thursday, 5 June 2003 02:08 (twenty-two years ago)

(probably not, but that's where i read it first)

― electric sound of jim (electricsound), Thursday, 5 June 2003 02:09 (twenty-two years ago)

I desperately want to claim credit for that joke but it was Scott Seward, I was just the first one on the thread to call him brilliant for it

― J0hn Darn1elle (J0hn Darn1elle), Thursday, 5 June 2003 02:12 (twenty-two years ago)

You're all wrong. Axl Rose gave that exact answer in an interview.

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Thursday, 5 June 2003 02:24 (twenty-two years ago)

if sofia coppola is into MBV, then i'd fuck her!

― Tad (llamasfur), Thursday, 5 June 2003 02:29 (twenty-two years ago)

I can't wait to see the look on her face when she hears the good news.

― s1utsky (slutsky), Thursday, 5 June 2003 02:36 (twenty-two years ago)

Har har har har har har har har har har har haaaaaarrrrr!!!

New MBV album (or indeed any work by Kevin Shields that isn't making Primal Scream songs listenable) = the musical equivalent of THE TOOTH FAIRY!!!

― kate, Thursday, 5 June 2003 08:04 (twenty-two years ago)

four weeks pass...

BUMP!

According to the Emperor Norton label who is issuing the soundtrack, it has two Shields *songs* and four 'score' pieces by the man as well. apparently it's due out in September.

― electric sound of jim (electricsound), Thursday, 3 July 2003 02:47 (twenty-two years ago)

Blimey. I guess JF was wrong.

― kate (kate), Thursday, 3 July 2003 07:46 (twenty-two years ago)

well I welcome this.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Thursday, 3 July 2003 09:55 (twenty-two years ago)

a kevin shields soundtrack to the virgin suicides would have been wayyy good i think. (not that the original was terrible or anything.) what a film that was...gorgeous and deep yet evanescent.
*dreamy.* air actually did provide the perfect compliment. it will be interesting to hear what shields comes up with for this. i'm expecting the unexpected.

― disco stu (disco stu), Thursday, 3 July 2003 13:08 (twenty-two years ago)

that's complement...

― disco stu (disco stu), Thursday, 3 July 2003 13:09 (twenty-two years ago)

Anyone see Shields up on stage at Glastonbury ? What does he actually do up there and why do they need three guitar players ?
