Luke Steele visited AOL HQ this week to promote Personality (One Was a Spider, One Was a Bird). A photo of Gwen Stefani on the wall inspired him to pen a tribute on the spot. You can stream it here.
What's that scribbled at the top? "Luke, as Huckleberry Pitchfork"? I don't think that's a jab at the indie criticism website, as their 2.2 review won't be posted until next week.

The album is very good, but their live show at the Bowery the other night was a definite 2.2 out of ten. Off-key falsettos and sloppy musicianship were in abundance. His old band was way better.

Check out the saturn project. Chicago's up and coming hidden secret!
Give us time and So alive Songs and anthems for a hungry generation. VIbrant electric sounds reminiscent to U2, Drum patterns and syncopation mirrored to the fusion of the police, vocals and harmonies colliding Coldplay and radiohead. the Saturn Project is a whole new musical experience in itlself. unconfined energy and abstract sounds. You can't help but notice the richness of culture and ancient blood, subliminaly shown, a portrait is painted night after night on stage with lyrics and sounds striking the soul. Where the "U Turn" leads, only "time" will know, the thought of losing life makes it feel "SO ALive".
Hypnosis: a state like sleep in which the subject acts only on external suggestions. As you listen to the songs performed live by the Saturn Project, this is the feeling that overcomes you despite all of your efforts to hold back. They make you feel So Alive with their electric and engaging on-stage presence. You will be so dazed after their set, that they will have you Counting Stars. There is nothing dull about this band, and I can GUARANTEE that you will not be Waiting for that one good song. With their unwavering determination to create music that will change the world, Better Days are yet to come for this group of young musical geniuses. Now you can listen to their CDs or hear how good the Saturn Project is, but Only You can witness for you, the start of new era in what we today call amazing music!
