• Jonny Greenwood Shares 'Spooks' from 'Inherent Vice' Soundtrack [LISTEN]

    Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood has shared a song from the soundtrack to the upcoming Paul Thomas Anderson film "Inherent Vice" titled "Spooks," which you can check out below. The song was written by Radiohead and made its live debut in 2006, but besides Greenwood this new version features no other members of Radiohead. Instead, Supergrass members Gaz Coombes and Dany Goffey appear on the mysterious, noir-inspired track with Joanna Newsom providing spoken word vocals — she also provides the narration for "Inherent Vice." You can check out Radiohead's "Spooks" — performed by Jonny Greenwood, Joanna Newsom, Gaz Coombes and Dany Goffey — here, via "Stereogum":
  • Joanna Newsom Working on Album, Discusses Ferguson, N.Y.

    Joanna Newsom is not someone who can be easily placed categorically, but we will give it a shot. The Californian folk singer/songwriter/harpist/actress is in Paul Thomas Anderson's forthcoming film "Inherent Vice," but she recently told Dazed she is working on fresh tunes. "I'm working on something new — I should hopefully have a little more news soon," Newsom said, via Stereogum. "I've been working hard for a lot of those five years on a new idea." "Vice" is a 1970s-set picture that deals with race issues, and Newsom used it as a bridge to current events. "I think the film drums up a sense that dark forces are at work behind the scenes, and that's a fear that many people I know struggle with, particularly in the States right now," she said. "There's an incredible sense of — at the risk of sounding melodramatic — a conspiracy. I mean, right now, what's happening in Ferguson and in New York is terrible: terrible cases of cops murdering people and getting away with it. The words 'civil rights violation' come up a lot in this film, and I think that that applies more today than it has for decades."
  • Joanna Newsom Joins The Cast of Paul Thomas Anderson's 'Inherent Vice' Alongside Joaquin Phoenix

    Joanna Newsom is the latest name to be added to the cast of Paul Thomas Anderson's "Inherent Vice," but for now everything is just a well-based rumor. The folk songstress, best known for her rambling (in a good way) harp ballads, was seen on set in Los Angeles along with its stars, Joaquin Phoenix and Katherine Waterston. She was reported to be wearing "hippie garb," which sounds like something her fans might do, but not the musician herself.
