Their stunning album Wagonwheel Blues is full gentle, moody folk tunes torn apart by jagged shards of noisy guitars. Click below for more on the War on Drugs, including how frontman Adam Granduciel gained access to so many microwaves and to watch an exclusive acoustic rendition of their song “Arms Like Boulders.” • Breaking: The War on Drugs

Rare Motown, Stax, Decca Albums Hit the Web at New Lost Tunes StoreAfter a year in the works and countless debates over what albums and tracks should make the cut, Universal Music Catalog has launched Lost Tunes, a U.K. download store with a seemingly bottomless catalog and rare, exclusive and “overlooked” tracks (one caveat: people in the U.S. won’t be able to purchase anything until later 2008). The site will tap into artists on the Trojan, Fiction, Decca, Verve, A&M, Motown and Stax labels. Individual tracks are priced at $1.96, with albums starting at $11.85. “Think of us as your small local record store run by a team dedicated to helping you find the very best music,” a statement from the store reads. “Alongside the rarities, we’ve also picked what we think are unmissable albums for you to add to your collection, and we’ve pulled together articles and reviews to help you discover music that we know you’ll love.” In all, Lost Tunes has eight categories including rock, pop, dance, reggae, soul, jazz/blues, roots and spoken work, plus an extensive 28 sub-genres. So far, in the rock category, most played includes Decca’s The Moody Blues: Live at the BBC 1967-1970 and the Tubes’ self-titled debut album. Under the punk banner, A&M released the Go-Gos’ Talk Show and Mercury’s New York Dolls’ Too Much Too Soon. Another popular release out today from British-based Jamaican music company, Island Records — one of the most popular and successful producers of the ska and rock steady eras — is Jimmy Cliff’s Wonderful World Beautiful People. Stax’ most popular release was Booker T & The MG’s/ The Mar-Keys’ Back to Back. Decca coughed up some 1960s paisley psychedelia with Leaf Hound: Growers of Mushrooms. Under Jazz/Blues, Motown rolls out Rick James’ Street Songs, and A&M releases Nine Below Zero: Live at the Marquee. There are 829 albums currently available on the site, and 129 are exclusive to Lost Tunes and unavailable elsewhere.

News Ticker: The Eagles, Amy Winehouse, Bun B, Bret Michaels The Eagles and the Moody Blues will perform during a two-day opening celebration for the new Hard Rock Park. The amusement park features attractions like “Led Zeppelin – The Ride“. Amy Winehouse will not face charges in connection with her husband’s pending legal case. Blake Fielder-Civil is currently incarcerated for an attempt to “pervert the course of justice.” Bun B will release his second solo album, and first since the death of his UGK cohort Pimp C, on April 29th. Il Trill will sport guest spots from Lil Wayne, Lupe Fiasco, Rick Ross and Pimp C. Rock of Love star and Poison leader Bret Michaels will join the ranks of Slash, Nikki Sixx and Scott Weiland by penning an autobiography for release later this year.

Single Minded: G-Unit, Freeky Zekey, Rev Theory and Lupe Fiasco 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. 50 Cent featuring Prodigy & Tony Yayo, “Fully Loaded” [Official Mixtape] The album-long takedown of Fat Joe is a little juvenile even by G-Unit standards, but this slow-burning death march about (what else?) drug slinging reminds everybody why we liked 50 in the first place (for reasons that had nothing to do with his abs). Midnight Movies, “Nights in White Satin” [MySpace] Southern California dream poppers take the Moody Blues’ overblown classic and turn it into a sexy, dramatic statement of purpose. Freeky Zekey, “Big Brother” [Bootleg] Isn’t it amazing how a good (jacked) Kanye West beat can turn a sixth-string Dipset mumbler into a guy who sounds like he knows what he’s doing? Rev Theory, “Light It Up” [MySpace] This hard-hitting track about “whiskey running through my veins” (ouch!) sounds like the entrance music to the meanest pro wrestler in history. Not coincidentally, it’s also the official theme song of this year’s Wrestlemania. Synergy! Lupe Fiasco featuring T.I. and Young Jeezy, “Superstar” [Remix] Lupe has never been a rapper who has played well with others, but his team up with these two titans of the South is an impressive twist on his tepid single from The Cool. Jeezy sounds especially sharp — at times, it sounds like he’s gargling with the beat, which should give him minty fresh breath.
