Fall Out Boy Holding Off Before Starting Next LP, Wu-Tang Move Release Date, The Verve Unleash Lengthy Demo

Despite having an “album’s worth of material” ready to go, Fall Out Boy’s Patrick Stump doesn’t anticipate the band will start work on the follow-up to the only-nine-month-old Infinity On High any time soon. Discussing the musical direction of the material, Stump manages to say “experimenting with piano phases like Steve Reich” and “it’s probably just gonna be a pop record” in the same paragraph. Stump also recently shot a guest spot on NBC’s unkillable crime drama Law & Order, which will air next February. The reunited Verve have released their first new music in over a decade in the form of a fourteen-minute demo. The experimental track, dubbed “The Thaw Session,” is available as a free download that you can get here. Mobb Deep’s Prodigy isn’t going to jail quietly. The rapper, who earlier this month accepted a three-and-a-half year prison sentence in a plea bargain for gun possession, told G-Unit Radio that police officers once asked him set up 50 Cent by planting evidence in 50’s car. Family crisis averted: The Wu-Tang Clan have pushed the release date of their new album The 8 Diagrams back one week so it wouldn’t compete with angry Ghostface Killah’s own album The Big Dough Rehab on December 4th. The news comes straight from the RZA’s mouth, and he’s smart. The Live Nation feeding frenzy continues. One week after securing every Madonna movement for a modest reported $120 million, the concert promoter is now making a bid for Signatures Network, which holds the right to license and market over 125 artists, including Bruce Springsteen, U2 and Kanye West.

"Hideout" by Film School

If past Film School releases featured a band stylistically stuck between the narrow hallways of post-punk and the woozy haze of shoegaze, the San Francisco unit's latest (and second for Beggars Banquet) seems to be a declaration of choice: "We've sided with the dream pop, the pedals and the texture-heavy gurgle of the latter, thank you." After all, Film School's heart has always seemed to lie with a more adventurous approach. Even on 2006's danceable self-titled jaunt, mastermind Greg Bertens' sensibilities proved much darker and more complex than those of, say, post-punk contemporaries Bloc Party or Editors. But after a gun-point robbery, the theft of Film School's van, and some serious personnel changes, Bertens' songwriting seems even darker here. Hideout's songs benefit greatly from the gloom, as the icy winds of "Blizzard Scout" or the acoustic warble of "Must Try Easier" quickly prove. It's this gloom that allows the moments when Bertrens lets light shine in on

You Spin Me Round: Gnarls Barkley Ready New Disc

Gnarls Barkley is in the process of finishing up work on a follow up to their massively successful breakthrough disc St. Elsewhere, but don't expect another "Crazy." Band co-founder Danger Mouse expressed disappointment the hit single overshadowed the rest of the album; "Crazy" set a record for being the first single to go straight to #1 in the UK based on digital download sales alone, retaining the top position for over nine weeks. Danger Mouse, along with partner in crime Cee-Lo, refused to give many details about the new album; however, they dropped a few hints. Danger Mouse said the new disc should be listened to as one interrelated unit--not as a package as individual singles. "No song is ever done until we have all the material together. When we have enough songs to the point where we have an album's worth, then we'll go in and start finished them together, so they have a cohesiveness to them, and we know where they fit with each other. "Some of the songs may be exactly the same, and some may end up being very different." More on the new Gnarls Barkley disc, along with this week's free MP3, after the jump.

Blink-182 Bandmate: Travis Barker's Recovery is 'Amazing'

Fresh reax.Travis Barker and his estranged Blink-182 bandmates are back in contact. Blink-182 member Mark Hoppus blogs on Barker's recovery from September's tragic plane crash and discusses the prospects of a band reunion! "We're just reconnecting as friends after four years of not talking," Hoppus says on his blog. "It's a good thing. Obviously the first question for a lot of people will be, 'Does this mean a Blink-182 reunion?' The answer is none of us know. We haven't talked about it at all. Right now it's just good for the three of us to see one another, reconnect and let the past be the past." Mark adds in the blog: "I'm also so thankful that Travis and DJ AM made it out of the plane that horrible night. Travis is a brother to me, and since the crash he has gone through more than I can even imagine. From the day after the plane went down, when I saw him in the burn unit out in Georgia, to the hospital here in L.A., to seeing him at home, his recovery is nothing short of amazing. Every day gets a little better."
