Gnarls Barkley Headline 150th MySpace Secret Show in NYC “It is extremely hot,” said Cee-Lo Green from the stage of the Filmore at Irving Plaza in New York City last night. He wasn’t kidding. Show-goers who stumbled from the main floor into the hallway in search of precious fresh air looked like they’d just stepped out of a swimming pool — hair matted, clothes soaked straight through. The occasion was the 150th MySpace Secret Show, an event that — bizarrely — paired Green’s band Gnarls Barkley with brutal New York math rock outfit Battles. Like all MySpace Secret Shows, there was no way to purchase tickets for the event. Interested parties had to add the Secret Show profile to their MySpace “Top 8″ in order to receive instructions on where and when to pick up the wristbands that gained them complimentary admission to the show. “I want to give these kids memories,” explained MySpace music editor Isac Walter. “These shows are designed for me, as a kid. If my favorite band was playing for free, in a venue like Irving Plaza instead of Madison Square Garden, fuck yeah, I’d stand in line.” By the looks of the crowd — capped, Walter said, at 1,050 — a lot of people shared his sentiment. The larger question was how two headliners so musically polarized would appeal to the sweltering crowd. “I honestly don’t get it,” laughed Battles fan Nadia Standard, 26. “The bands are from two different worlds. I’m curious to see how the 16-year-old Gnarls fans and the musichead Battles fans interact.” Seth Dukes, 22, felt differently. “I think it totally fits,” he said. “Battles is ‘out there,’ Gnarls is ‘out there.’ Both bands are, musically, on the edge.” As it turned out, he was right. Though their initial squall of feedback may have disoriented some attendees, almost everyone was won over by the end of their manic set. Gnarls Barkley, needless to say, didn

Radiohead Break Out Covers of Smiths, New Order During Webcast Even though Radiohead slam-dunked their version of Björk’s “Unravel” during last night’s Webcast, it’s become apparent that the band has not got covers completely out of their system. We’re one hour into tonight’s live telecast, and have already enjoyed two covers: The Smiths’ “The Headmaster Ritual” and, for your viewing pleasure above, New Order’s “Ceremony.” The band also mixed in live versions of their own “Reckoner” (the debut performance of its current incarnation) and “Faust Arp,” which was previously recorded and performed in a field with singer Thom Yorke and guitarist Jonny Greenwood. Between performances, the bandmembers have taken turns DJing (who knew drummer Phil Selway loved him some Iron & Wine?) and broadcasting Stanley Donwood animation as well as hilarious skits, like the Se7en-themed music video for “15 Step.” To join in, head over to www.radiohead.tv.

Christina Aguilera Collapses, Nine Inch Nails Hit Paperwork Snafu, Pearl Jam Announce Live DVD Christina Aguilera canceled two concert dates after collapsing backstage from a “flu.” Backstage whispers say Aguilera has been “letting out her costumes” to accommodate her ever-growing stomach, fueling those pregnancy rumors. Nine Inch Nails’ planned tour of Russia has been called off due to an error filling out visas, thus forcing Russians to get their murderous, satanic lyrics elsewhere. Peter Hook is threatening to sue the rest of New Order if they go all Roger Waters vs. Pink Floyd on him. Creation Records founder Alan McGee has lashed out at former label cash cow My Bloody Valentine, calling the band “bloody nonsense … my way of seeing how far I can push hype.” Pearl Jam are adding to their plentiful library of live performances by releasing Immagine Nel Telaio, a concert DVD from their 2006 Italian tour, on September 25th.

Guns N’ Roses’ Early Days: Exclusive Photos From ‘Reckless Road’ Author Marc Canter The new book Reckless Road by Marc Canter — an amateur photographer and owner of L.A.’s famed Canter’s Deli — documents Guns N’ Roses’ early years via never-before-seen photos and lots of memorabilia. Canter, who was a childhood friend of Saul Hudson (also known as Slash) was just a teenager when he began shooting photos of his friends’ band. Canter was there, snapping away at GN’R’s first show on June 6, 1985 and he and his camera followed the band’s every subsequent move. The book, which came out Friday, can be ordered with one of six custom covers featuring Axl, Slash, Izzy, Duff, Steven or a full band shot.

"Fantastic Playroom" by New Young Pony ClubTrue pop songs are confections—sweet, brief indulgences that come in shiny wrappers. A truly delectable one is anything but disposable, and a truly satisfying box of 'em is all too rare a treat. On Fantastic Playroom, New Young Pony Club deliver just that. Contrary to the hype, the British band is more new wave than new rave. This debut album shows off loving updates of '80s synth pop—they're not necessarily adventurous, but they're unquestionably flawless. Blondie, Talking Heads, New Order and any number of other old favorites can be heard lounging in the background of these pouty synth melodies, jagged guitar lines and sharp disco grooves. The lead singles offer the requisite sugar-rush: the sticky thump of "Ice Cream" and the swirling stomp of "The Bomb" are irresistible and refreshingly uncomplicated. From the slow-mo vamping of "Talking Talking" and the reverb-drenched shimmer of

Megadeth, In Flames, High On Fire Ground and Pound at Gigantour in New York The third installment of Gigantour, Dave Mustaine’s traveling metal circus, had its first of two sold-out shows at New York’s Hammerstein Ballroom last night. Never one to blow an entrance, Mustaine opened Megadeth’s set standing alone onstage, ripping into “Sleepwalker,” the first cut from last year’s United Abominations. From then on, the order of business was to thrash as hard as possible for ninety minutes, with items on the agenda including a blistering “Take No Prisoners” and a sneer-heavy “Symphony of Destruction.” Mustaine’s ginger mop doesn’t bob as much as it used to, but his chops were still there — impressive for a guy who had to essentially re-learn his instrument five years ago after suffering nerve damage. The big revelation of the night was newly added lead guitarist Chris Broderick, who made trading shred-heavy lines with Mustaine on “Hangar 18″ seem like child’s play. And speaking of children, the 1984 mullets several attendees forced upon their spawn likely qualify as a form of child abuse. Bouncing back from a pair of albums that were light on memorable moments, Sweden’s In Flames performed a handful of vicious songs from their latest, A Sense of Purpose. Diehard fans gnashed their teeth at the dearth of pre-2000 material, but new songs “The Mirror’s Truth” and “Disconnected” featured enough bite to grab newer ears and likely won back a few of the old ones. Most attendees in the massive line missed an impressive — if unpleasantly early — set from Oakland’s High on Fire, who conjure up as much blood and thunder as Mastodon and do it with only three guys. Phoenix-based youthful Internet buzz band (7 million MySpace views!) Job for a Cowboy followed by showing off solid technical proficiency and was the night’s most straightforwardly brutal act, suggesting the band could become pretty noteworth
