New J Mascis: Is It Done
ever since I spent three days thinking I'd finally blown my hearing after standing a bit too near the speakers at a Dinosaur Jr gig, I've kind of preferred it when J Mascis keeps things quiet... so I'm looking forward to this acoustic-ish album he's got coming out, with loads of guests (Kurt Vile, A Silver Mount Zion’s Sophie Trudeau, Kevin Drew, Ben Bridwell, Black Heart Procession’s Pall Jenkins, Matt Valentine etc). great primer track over at PFork and if you hand over your email Sub Pop will give you another

Trailer Park: X-Men - The Mad Men Years
"Charles" and "Erik", not exactly the most badass superhero names you'll ever hear... Enjoyed Kick-Ass from director Matthew Vaughn so this might be ok; on the other hand, as Wolverine: The Wonder Years showed, there's very little peril involved in these prequels where we know who makes it to the later films.
