1-2-WTCH-IN-2011: Breton - December
On the last day of December here’s one to watch for 2011, Breton with a track off their Counter Balance EP. There’s rumours going around that Tom Vek is involved with this project, so it’ll be interesting to see whether this is the case or not. Either way it does sound a bit like Vek, aka, EXCELLENT.

AGCS CHRISTMAS CALENDAR: 20th December
Last year AGCS writer Greg released a Christmas album under his Greg The Hero moniker, and this year he’s done it again with “Disbelief”, which you can listen to/download here. There’s lots of good stuff on it, but the stand out for me is Joy To Find, with it’s Frusciante-esque guitar noodling and melancholy lyrics about the true meaning of Christmas. It’s class.

Fourteen Actors Acting (with Owen Pallett)
Fourteen Actors Acting is a video gallery of beautifully shot black & white shorts featuring ‘classic screen types’ such as Tilda Swinton, Michael Douglas, Natalie Portman and Matt Damon.
What makes this extra neat is that the music was composed by Owen Pallett, and recorded in Prague by the Czech Symphony Strings.
The process of writing the music for each video was instinctive, Mr. Pallett said. “As soon as the image hit my eyes I knew automatically.” However, his collaboration with a print publication and a photographer wasn’t crystal clear for everyone. “I had a really hard time explaining the gig to my grandma,” Mr. Pallett said. “She was like, ‘Why are you writing music for a magazine?’”
Head to The New York Times to check the shorts out.

LIVE REVIEW: Arcade Fire at O2 Arena
“I wanna try experiment on this song” Win announced, about half way through Arcade Fire’s set at the first of two sold out shows at London’s 02 Arena. “Everyone on this side stand up; just everyone in the place stand up”, he went on, as us on the floor shockingly realised that people were actually sat in the first place. “Now, let’s just all pretend we’re at a fucking rock show, 2, 3, 4”. Neighborhood #3 (Power Out) kicks in, every light on stage suddenly power on, and the place goes absolutely fucking mental. If I wasn’t so busy thinking about the possibility of me crying at this point, then I might have just cried.
