Check it out kids, Ryan Adams is back! From the forthcoming full on metal record, Orion, due out sometime soon. More info. available HERE.

Ryan Adams – “Electrosnake”

In case you missed it, this probably wouldn’t have fit very well into the actual film, but is pretty neat on its own.

I’ve never been more confused by a music video but hey look, it’s the Pussy Wagon.

Films coming soon to the Twin Cities area Landmark Theatres.

Rust Never Sleeps – “Like a Hurricane”

The Cinema Revolution Society is having an open filmmaker call for the Minneapolis Project, consisting of numerous short films that will form a cinematic portrait of the city. The Uptown, Downtown, and Northeast arts district are already commissioned, but there’s plenty of other local areas to still choose from.

Films must be under 5 minutes in length and not be documentaries, so I guess this is going the NY, I Love You route. The entry fee for the project is $20 and there will be an Audience Award cash prize of $300 when the finished product screens at the Riverview Theatre in mid-September.

For more info on guidelines and deadlines (a Q&A meeting is also Sunday, March 28), check HERE.

I love the beat on this track.
