One Evening Hotel

After listening to Broken Social Scene's 'Hotel' on a bus trip the other day, I realised that there was something very familiar about the ending of the song. A quick listen to Feist's 'One Evening' confirmed what I had suspected - they have the excact same guitar riffs! How come I never noticed this before? Here's a mix I made where the two songs are blended together:

New Feist song: Don't Make Me Wait

mp3: Doug Paisley (with Feist) - Don't Make Me Wait

Doug Paisley's album Constant Companion, which came out last month, features Feist on the above song.

Feist's new documentary film Look at What The Lights Did Now has recently been screening on an obscurely small number of cinemas across the world, but according to her website it will be released as a DVD in stores December 6th in Europe and December 7th in North America, with a bonus CD. I'm honestly excited about absolutely any new material from this lady, so I'm looking forward to it.

New Broken Social Scene song – "World Sick"

Broken Social Scene's first new record in five years (not counting the "BSS Presents" spinoff series) is set to be released on May 4. The band is finally reuniting properly, as all regular members are making contributions again, even the ones who have been immensely busy with their side (main?) projects for the past few years

I'm especially excited about all the three girls being back aboard the Broken Social Scene ship again - the three of them are all incredibly talented, and although they've had great success outside BSS recently – Emily with Metric, Amy with Stars and Feist with her solo career – they've now been kind enough to come back to enhance the BSS core guys' new album Forgiveness Rock Record with their creative talents.

The album name, cover artwork (see above) and the album's first new song (download above) were all presented to the world just a few minutes ago. It's all very promising (what an epic and very BSS-esque cover illustration!) and I'm quite excited for May now. Let the hype begin – and I hope the indie legends' new effort will live up to it.
