Scored by David Byrne, Big Love: Hymnal, Music Written for the HBO Series Plus Other Recent Compositions is out now on Todomundo. A selection of Byrne's music from all 12 episodes of the second season of the HBO series Big Love, the disc also features as yet unheard tracks written for and inspired by the series.

Big Love, which follows the polygamist family of fundamentalist Mormon Bill Hendrickson (played by Bill Paxton), takes a decidedly dark turn during the second season. What begins as a study in juggling three wives in an orderly and disciplined manner devolves into a morass of ...

Let's put aside, if we can, the years of accolades this band has earned. Let's forget about Rolling Stone Magazine's five-star rating for this album (giving it "classic" status). Ignore the aging rock stars that have been written off more than once. And pay no attention to the sparse grey album cover that has left some fans scratching their heads.

All you need to focus on is the music. Three of the finest producers in music - all previous U2 collaborators - were involved in U2's twelfth studio album. Danny Lanois, Brian Eno, and Steve Lillywhite all put their mark on "No Line On...

Imagine that Fujiya & Miyagi are mask-wearing technicians dissecting music, keen to magnify particles of sound to create a pulsing antidote to the ordinary. They speak in tongues, using language as a rhythm, picking words that sound good, rhyming 'jigsaws' with 'carnivores.'

Their songs are incisive snapshots of real lives that make household appliances sound threatening. They are steeped in vintage music from evocative krautrock to deep soul, with wafts of early Human League synth, Floydian Englishness and the throbbing groove of Tom Tom Club, all filtered for modern times.

Coldplay will release a follow-up to their recent album Viva La Vida as early as next year, according to reports. The rockers, fronted by Chris Martin, apparently recorded enough tracks with producer Brian Eno to form the basis of a new LP.

A source tells Britain's The Sun newspaper, "The Viva La Vida sessions were incredibly fruitful. They gelled brilliantly with Brian and recorded much more music than they could fit on one album.

"The majority of the follow-up is already in the can, though they will have to go back into the studio at some point to add a few more songs."

British band Coldplay's latest album was slated by legendary producer Brian Eno before it was even recorded, according to frontman Chris Martin.

The rocker and his band enlisted the former Roxy Music keyboardist to help with their latest album Viva La Vida - but were shocked when Eno unleashed his thoughts on their songs.

Martin says, "He said, 'Your songs are too long, you're too repetitive and your lyrics aren't good enough.’

"Within 20 minutes we'd forgotten about all our previous record sales."

Coldplay were left so stunned by a scathing critique of their last album X&Y they brought in producer Brian Eno to help them become the band they wanted to be.

The New York Times article suggested the British band were "the most insufferable" on the back of the 2005 album, prompting singer Chris Martin to take notice.

He says, "It was a big deal. It's the first real attack on your band, and from a publication we all respect. I agreed with a lot of the points... so, in a way, it was liberating to see that someone else realized that also. And there is something glamorous to me in ta...

In 1995, Silverchair's "Tomorrow" became the single most played song on US modern rock stations, quite a feat for three 15 year olds from Australia. Since then, Silverchair has become the most successful band in their homeland's history, winning more Arias, the Grammy's of Australia, and charting more number-one records than any other act.

Their sound has evolved considerably since their grunge-styled early work to their latest release "Young Modern," a meticulously produced masterwork that combines elements of glam rock and orchestration reminiscent of Sergeant Pepper's/Revolver-era ...

Moviemaker Joe Wright was left red-faced on the set of new period piece Atonement when he was heard yelling masturbation instructions to actress Keira Knightley. Wright pumped Brian Eno's This onto the set at full volume for the film's sensual scenes - but was caught out one morning when the track ended unexpectedly.

He says, "I didn't reduce the volume of my voice and I could suddenly be heard shouting, 'Keira, w--k him off,' which I was mercilessly ripped about for some weeks afterwards."

But the actress insists there was "no knob-touching for real."

"I feel this record has been an amazing opportunity to push the artist in me," says Dave Gahan of his second album Hourglass, due October 23 via Mute/Virgin Records. The record follows the Depeche Mode front man's acclaimed 2003 solo albut Paper Monsters that marked his debut as a full-fledged songwriter.

The album's first single-- the soaring and pulsating "Kingdom"-- hit radio waves August 27. "It's this idea that there's a better place, and it's not up there in the clouds, it's right here," says Gahan. "And it's about becoming more accepting of life and the way it is. I would be lyi...

U2 fans attending the Toronto Film Festival in Canada next month are in for a treat - producer Daniel Lanois' new film, which is premiering at the event, features footage of the band rehearsing songs from their upcoming album.

In musical documentary Here Is What Is, the celebrated music mogul attempts to explain what makes him one of the best producers on the planet.

Irish rockers U2 are re-teaming with long-term collaborators Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois for help with their new album. The former Roxy Music star and Lanois famously produced the band's breakthrough fifth album, The Joshua Tree, but they've been invited into the studio this time to help pen lyrics for a follow-up to 2004's How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb.

Writing on U2's official website, drummer Larry Mullen says, "It's the first time we've worked with Brian and Dan in a purely songwriting capacity. So it's very different, quite experimental and kind of liberating because of that." ...

There is a racing, joyous intensity to Bryan Ferry's interpretations of the songs of Bob Dylan. Just as his legendary version of 'A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall', recorded back in 1973, exchanged apocalyptic vision for exuberant swagger, so at the heart of these new recordings lies Ferry's brilliance in both paying homage to the original track, and reinventing it as entirely and iconically his own. Back then, in 1973, he had an idea: "I just thought it would be great to make a whole album of Dylan songs. And at the end of last year, finally, it happened."

Between the idea and its executio...

Devo are the unmistakable American rock group formed in Akron, Ohio in 1972 by Kent State art students Jerry Casale and Mark Mothersbaugh. Their debut album, Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo produced by Brian Eno, and was originally released to worldwide acclaim in 1978.

They were also one of the first American rock acts to sign to the UK-based record label Stiff Records.

Devo took its name from their concept of "de-evolution" — the idea that instead of evolving, mankind has actually regressed, as evidenced by the dysfunction and herd mentality of American society.

Timbaland is planning to give British rockers Coldplay an urban twist when he produces songs for their upcoming album. The beatmaker - real name Timothy Mosley - is the brains behind Nelly Furtado's hit "Maneater" and Justin Timberlake's "Sexyback".

And he's now turning his hand to the Chris Martin-fronted band.

Talking about his production process, Timbaland says, "I try to get into their heads, see what they thinking about. I just try to figure out how they are feeling.

"And if they are feeling a certain way, I go by that. It's more about everyday life - then it (should) be...

Coldplay are collaborating with legendary music producer Brian Eno on their new album. Electronic musician Eno, 58, is famous for his work with Roxy Music, U2 and David Bowie, and Coldplay are thrilled to have him on board.

The band's guitarist Johnny Buckland said: "We feel that he picked us really, rather than we picked him. If you can persuade him to work with you then you must be doing quite well."

Frontman Chris Martin refused to give any details away about the new project, saying: "It's just too early to talk about it at the moment." Chris has also confirmed Coldplay will no...

'Surprise' is the first album that Paul Simon has worked on in collaboration with legendary producer Brian Eno. The result is a captivating collection of songs captured in mesmerising style by Eno’s inventive production.

Titles set to rank amongst highlights of the set include ‘Outrageous’, ‘How Can You Live In The Northeast’ and ‘Sons And Daughters’.

Says Paul Simon: "Working with Brian Eno opens the door to a world of sonic possibilities; plus he's just a great guy to hang with in the studio, or for that matter in life. I had a really good time."

‘Surprise’ features Simon’s masterful voice, and showcases some of his finest guitar work to date. Augmente...

Music pioneer Brian Eno has quashed rumours he will reteam with his former Roxy Music bandmates to record the group's first album since 1982.

Eno quit the British band in 1973 after recording just two LPs with the Brian Ferry-fronted outfit - but British press reports recently claimed he was set to return to his roots.

A statement on EnoWeb says the rumours are "untrue and just in-good-faith wishful thinking from the journalists - Brian has no involvement with the band's current recording or tour plans.

"All that happened was that Brian popped in to visit the members of the g...
