Cool Bad Religion Cover

Here's a great Bad Religion cover by Frank Turner, who I was very impressed by at Osheaga this past summer...too bad I only caught his last few songs. The song is "My Poor Friend Me" from Bad Religion's 1993 album Recipe for Hate. There is also an interesting cover of "Suffer" by Tegan and Sara.

EMBED

Amazing Atoms for Peace footage

Finally some better than cell phone camera footage of Atoms for Peace the "super" group featuring Thom Yorke, Flea, Nigel Godrich (Radiohead Producer), Mauro Refosco, and Joey Waronker. These clips are taken from last months Fuji Rock Festival in Niigata, Japan. Hopefully we will someday get an album from these guys...but at least there is new Radiohead on the horizon.

Sacha Baron Cohen to play Freddie Mercurry!

Yup it's true, Borat will play the Queen singer in an up coming feature film. This should be interesting. No director is attached as of yet but Academy Award winner Graham King (the Departed) is producing. (via Deadline)
