Neil Young Hits A "Fork In The Road" In Funny New Video
CBC Radio 3 —
Canadian rock icon Neil Young has been thinking about driving a lot these days. Last year, he started his own electric car company. Then he hit the road, playing major venues all around North America. So it's no wonder that he's releasing videos for songs with titles like "Fork In The Road." Wearing headphones that are plugged into an apple (har, har), and backed by roadhouse blues guitar and drums, Young sings about everything from the war in Iraq ("Salute the troops. They're all ...
Neil Young singing with an apple

From his new album, that doesn't have a release date yet. Also, looks like he'll be headlining Glastonbury, which, in my mind, reduces the chances that he'll headline Coachella.
New Neil Young video: ‘Fork in the Road’
ZME Music —
In his latest video, for what seems to be the title track for his upcoming new album, Neil is featured in a one-shot position, listening to music on his headphones, plugged-in into an apple. He then bites it, after chanting “I’m a big rock star” (indeed you are, sir!) - quite a nice allegory to our modern day iPod, iPhone and other Apple gadgets, that today’s music enthusiasts use. “My sales have tanked, but I still got you. Download this, it sounds like shit,” he then continues, debunking and approaching a satirical attitude towards contemporary music culture distribution. He also tackles bailouts, war ...

Flight Of The Conchords return
.: chromewaves.net v7.5 —
Amelia HandscombI realize that the geek-correct reason to have this coming Sunday weekend circled on the calendar is for the return for the final half-season of Battlestar Galactica on Friday night - and don’t get me wrong, I’m as psyched as any socially awkward individual about the final episodes and revelations that will be contained therein - but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t more excited about the return of Flight Of The Conchords that same evening on Sunday (or really, the following morning when my torrents will have finished ...
Friendly Fires make a date
.: chromewaves.net v7.5 —
Catherine LosingFor The Records pointed out a curious concert listing for UK indie-dance act Friendly Fires at the website for Beggars Canada - it puts the St Alban’s trio in town on March 31, but only narrows the venue down to two possibilities - Mod Club or Lee’s Palace. So all I can accurately say is that they’ll be in Toronto at an approximately 500-capacity venue on that date. And wherever they are, odds of a dance party breaking out are pretty much one to one. Personally, I think that Mod would be a much more suitable venue - the ass-shaking, slick and scratchy new ...

PopMatters —
Always timely and occasionally kooky, Neil Young has both covered in his latest single, the title track for his upcoming, uh, electric-car-themed concept album Fork in the Road . The record drops on March 31 (why not wait the extra three weeks and release it on Earth Day?), but until then, enjoy the song’s no-budget video, complete with Neil on air guitar and a none-too-subtle (as if anything else about the song is) iPod joke. — Jer Fairall ...
Retroselective: The Best of Jan. 2009
Culture Bully —
February has come far too quickly, but before we completely leapfrog the ass-end of January we thought it’d be appropriate to look back on the best of the past month. From indie rock bum-rushing the Billboard charts to Hip Hop Against Homophobia, these are the things that we felt best represented the past month. The bell has rung, the lessons have been learned and it’s now time to move on. Class dismissed.
Hip Hop Against Homophobia: While it was unfortunate that we had to turn people away, and that the people who did get in were crammed together and couldn’t move, it was ultimately inspiring to see such a huge ...
