Listen: Twilight - "Lungs"

It’s been a great day for posts with the latest coming from black metal super group Twilight. Strangely enough I was discussing the group last Saturday with my friend Kris without any knowledge that this was coming out. Check out their second LP from 2010 entitled Monument To Time End, it's a monster of a record if you haven't already!

For those unfamiliar Twilight has had an ever-evolving lineup with each release and in 2012 added  Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth fame to the army. Unfortunately this will be the last record from the collective  with news of their new album—III: Beneath Trident's Tomb, out on March 18 via Century Media.

III features Moore, Stavros Giannopoulos (Atlas Moth), Wrest (Leviathan), N. Imperial (Krieg), and producer Sanford Parker. Get a taste of the 6 track LP below with "Lungs."

Video: Hand In Hand Presents - Thurston Moore Talks Skateboarding

Ride Channel series Hand in Hand recently filmed a two part video piece on Thurston Moore's influence on the skateboarding community and vice versa.  Moore discus’s how he originally fell into skateboarding culture via magazines like Thrasher citing the common punk spirit held by playing music with his band Sonic Youth and Kids skating the streets of NYC. After a chance encounter with legendary boarder Mark Gonzales at a Sonic Youth concert Thurston was gifted a copy of the Spike Jonze directed Blind feature length, Video Days.  From there a union was formed seeing the band’s music used in many skate films over the years to having things come full circle with Spike Jonze directing the video for "100%" from the band’s Dirty album.  Look to the videos below to get the full story including an appearance from Pro skater and artist,  Ed Templeton, in the second part.
