all fall down

this article has some information on the new Fiery Furnaces.

Neat concept on these DVDs:

We travel from town to town and film bands performing in houses that are about to be demolished or burned to the ground. They document the doomed house, the bands, and the demolition, put it together in a 45 minute movie, put it out on DVD and move on to the next town. Each DVD/town has a different curator that is entrenched in the respective music scene and who can pick out what he or she considers their favorite bands. This allows us to put the bands in a geocentric context.

OK, the bit on geocentric contexts and curators is a bit pretentious, but I think that things still get demolished.

Spoon just sent an email saying that they made a new song really fast and will have it on itunes soon.
