- No one says “no” to Madonna, except, apparently, the Russian government. Despite the backing of Parliament member Alexei Mitrofanov, Madge’s on a flight to the international space station in 2008 has been rejected. Something about that whole religious button-pushing thing she does with the cross … and her name … and her lifestyle. [via Stereogum]
- More info emerges re: My Chemical Romance’s new record The Black Parade like the track list and the album art and … we love My Chem but we’re kinda ready for the actual record. Please. Soon. Thanks.
- This expanded version of the Flaming Lips album At War With the Mystics (out October 24th) is as chaotic as their shows. It will feature a bunch of outtakes, plus excerpts from the band’s appearances on various radio show, plus there’s a DVD involved that included Wayne’s infamous commencement address.
- Maybe the tide is turning in this whole Rock Stars Making Us Do Stuff thing. We have spent more time than we care to admit putting anyone we can think of in the Scissor Sisters’ video. Like our bassett hound Joni Mitchell and the real Joni Mitchell. Try it. You’ll like it. [via Stereogum]
