Rilo Kiley - Under The Blacklight Artist: Rilo Kiley Review: Because Rilo Kiley's More Adventurous was a triumph of the well-made narrative song, its markedly terser and beatier follow-up, which is also the band's true major-label debut, will be accused of sellout. Instead, it's yet more adventurous, a prosperous band's challenge to its comfortable cult. Always too cute for serious indie cred, Jenny Lewis slips four songs about dangerous sex in which she herself might be indulging -- right now, in her pretty prosperity -- into music that's defined...

Elvis Costello Updates Web Site, Talks “Momofuku” In a post on his newly revamped Web site, Elvis Costello confirmed his new album is named after the Momofuku Ando, the inventor of the Cup Noodle. “Like so many things in this world of wonders, all we had to do to make this record was add water,” he writes. The singer/songwriter also confirms that though the album will be available only as a double vinyl today, other mediums will follow. “You may prefer other, more portable, less scratchable, editions that will soon become available for your convenience,” Costello says. “But this is how it sounds the best: with a needle in a groove, the way the Supreme Being intended it to be.” Costello also gives an in-depth track-by-track on Momofuku, including stories behind collaborations with Roseanne Cash, Johnathan Rice and Rilo Kiley’s Jenny Lewis.

Duran Duran Get Caught in Justin Timberlake’s Unstoppable Plot To Bring Sexy Back First 50 Cent partnered with Justin Timberlake on a track about porn (“Ayo Technology”), now Duran Duran have fallen victim to JT’s SexyBack wiles. The band just shot an X-rated video featuring topless models for “Falling Down,” the first single off their November 13th album Red Carpet Massacre, the NME reports. The track, which was co-written and produced by collaboration machine Timberlake, was initially inspired by frontman Simon Le Bon’s experience recovering from a motorcycle accident in 1992. In the clip, however, the song’s dark themes are represented by a collection of beautiful naked women in rehab (the bandmembers portray doctors) and Le Bon swears this all makes sense somehow. “The concept of models in rehab has so much to do with what the song’s about,” he claims. “It’s very sad but there’s a kind of beauty in it as well. The song is about arrogance and pride, as well as personal breakdowns and the hope for redemption and the resilience of the human spirit.” Sounds … deep. We’ll have to see how it stacks up to this year’s other porn-tastic video, Rilo Kiley’s “Moneymaker.”

"Set the Woods on Fire" by Art in ManilaIt was a sad day for dream pop when Azure Ray broke up. The Nebraskan duo of Orenda Fink and Maria Taylor released three increasingly excellent albums of country-tinged melancholia, sending music reviewers constantly seeking new synonyms for "ethereal." Thankfully, the pair's post-Ray projects have been just as satisfying, though divergent stylistically. Orenda Fink's solid new band, Art in Manila, lends a harder edge to her previously wispy work with Azure Ray, molding the well-crafted pop songs on their debut, Set the Woods on Fire, into MOR indie fare—which, in this case, isn't necessarily a bad thing. Like the drugged-out Rilo Kiley or less inscrutable Neko Case they so strongly resemble, Art in Manila deliver comfortably predictable indie pop with darker moods hiding in the corners. A punchy backbeat and Rhodes piano give bite and swagger to "Our Addictions," and a Neil Young-y crunch informs the title track's lovely chorus, but Set

Single Minded: New Tracks From Nikki Sixx, Cartel, M.I.A., Rilo Kiley and Swizz Beatz featuring Coldplay Every Tuesday Single Minded highlights new tracks hitting stores (or the Web) this week. On Fridays, come back for rarities, remixes, mash-ups and more. Nikki Sixx, “Life is Beautiful” [Heroin Diaires MySpace] Mötley Crüe bassist documents destructive power of heroin in a song that recalls Papa Roach — making it the first anti-drug single to ever inspire drug use. Cartel, “Lose It” [Cartel’s Official Site] Recorded while the band was locked in a bubble, cruelly cut off from the rest of the world. Unlike every other emo band, who just think they are. M.I.A, “Boyz” [M.I.A. Official Site] Every so often, the blogs get one right. Also, boasts visual effects by Strong Bad. Rilo Kiley, “Silver Lining” [Rilo Kiley MySpace] Finally, a new Dido single! Swizz Beatz feat. Coldplay, “Part of the Plan” [Swizz Beatz MySpace] Further proof that the caliber of rock/rap collaborations has dipped precipitously. Hot Tip: We hear Chris DeBurgh isn’t doing a whole lot these days. Photo: Winter/Getty
