Phish Tease Fans With Halloween Cover Options: Nirvana, MGMT

Photo: Phish.com It’s tradition for Phish to cover another artist’s classic album in its entirety on Halloween — and for fans to furiously debate which LP the band will choose in the weeks before the big show. This year, the Vermont quartet is playing along by teasing its devotees with a gallery of album covers on the official Festival 8 Website. Records that won’t be performed in Indio, California, at the end of the month are being figuratively killed off the band — stabbed with a knife or an a

Breaking: Grizzly Bear

Who: A Brooklyn chamber-pop quartet who hunkered down in a worn-down church to record their gorgeous third album Veckatimest. After a surprise hit in 2006’s “Knife” and a stint as Radiohead’s opening band in 2008, Grizzly Bear’s growing popularity was confirmed this week when Veckatimest debuted at Number Eight on the sales chart. Sounds Like: Led by singer Ed Droste and singer-guitarist Daniel Rossen, who both share co-writing duties, Veckatimest is a lush mix of Beach Boys melodies, complex ar

Hype Monitor: Fever Ray, New Villager and Ghost Hunter

Every week, Hype Monitor wades through the most buzzed-about bands all across the Internet to find the ones you need to hear now. The Band: Fever Ray The Buzz: Solo outing of Karin Andersson of Swedish electro-Gothers the Knife. Sounds kind of like the Knife. Listen If: Grey is your favorite color, or grim is your favorite mood. Key Track: “If I Had a Heart,” a bleak, pulsing funeral march where Andersson’s wisp-of-smoke voice curls around fat blue bands of synth. The Band: New Villager The Buzz: Bi-coastal duo bang out brawny indie pop. Listen If: You wish Animal Collective’s fangs were a bit sharper. Key Track: “Rich Doors,” a thumping combo of mantra-like vocals, tribal percussion and cascading keyboards — it’s “Life in a Northern Town” writ very, very small. The Band: Ghost Hunter The Buzz: It’s all eerie: weird wind chimes, whistling keyboards and thudding percussion combine to create the sound of the woods at night. Listen If: You’re looking for a good accompaniment for your next bout of hypnosis. Key Track: “Through the Haze of the Green Glasses,” which is nothing but weird soprano synthesizers and off-kilter percussion — like a Kate Bush song without Kate Bush.

Queens of the Stone Age Team Up With Celeb Chef Anthony Bourdain For Weirdest Holiday Special Ever

If you are Anthony Bourdain, the punk-rock-loving world-renowned chef and star of the hit Travel Channel show No Reservations, sometimes you find yourself in Berlin boozing with Queens of the Stone Age. As the cocktails flow, the conversation morphs from the Ramones to kitsch, and before you know it you’re talking about super-cheesy Christmas variety-show specials in the Bing Crosby-hosts-David Bowie tradition. The result? Last week QOTSA played “Silver Bells” (renamed “Turkey Bells”) for a holiday-themed episode of No Reservations. “We just got a call saying, ‘Hey, we have a weird idea,’” frontman Josh Homme told us. “So when people come to us with that sort of a statement we are all ears.” Here’s the plot: While Bourdain cooks a traditional holiday feast at his Connecticut home, the Queens are rocking tracks including “Sick, Sick, Sick,” “3’s & 7’s” and “Make It Wit Chu” at an ungodly volume in the basement rec room. When the band emerges, they’re sporting appalling Christmas sweaters. “QVC graciously sent us the worst sweaters of all time,” Homme explains. “I think someone Googled the word ‘horrible’ and that’s how we found them.” Bourdain, ever the arbiter of good taste, hasn’t recovered: “Those Christmas sweaters were just the most terrifying things I’ve ever seen in my life. Beyond Sandra Lee on some really awful hallucinogen.” While Homme and Bourdain aren’t giving up the whole story, they revealed the episode will involve karaoke, surly adolescents and a Japanese businessman. “It’s a traditional Thanksgiving/Christmas meal with turkey, all the trimmings, cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie … some Christmas carols … and a vicious brother-on-brother knife fight,” Bourdain said. “We spent a fair amount of time spraying stage blood onto my niece and nephew’s face. What’s a holiday special without violent mayhem? I think it’s an honest reflection of the holiday season.” Though Homme
