Why is it the Middle Kids are always the smart ones?

By Will McGuirk

Now don't quote me and I won't quote him but I think I heard Johnny Marr on CBC saying something along the lines of how his response to all the crap in the world is to not let it deter him from his task, you know to keep on keeping on doing good things and maybe that pile of good things will eventually overwhelm the crap until it loses its voice and falls silent and loses oxygen and dies or maybe he didn't and I just wanted him to but anyway I think Middle Kids are doing that and its just so good to hear folks making shiny happy tunes because god knows we need them so don't be hiding, get out, do good, keep on keeping on and get seen and get heard.
The track "Don't Be Hiding" a call to arms for the shy ones is available on their Domino debut 'Lost Kids'.

Saul Williams slowed down and reimagined by The Kills

The Kills have released their new single, a cover of Saul Williams' "List of Demands" B-sided with a cover of Peter Tosh's "Steppin' Razor". Artwork is by Shepard Fairey.

 "I always felt envious of the way the 60's generation shared songs and ideologies. Jimi singing Dylan. Rotary Connection singing Otis Redding. The Stones singing the blues," Williams said
