Thom Yorke and Radiohead producer/Atoms for Peace band member Nigel Godrich will put on  a series of special live events this month and next. "Me & Nigel out & about with two turntables & a microphone - London 22feb, Berlin 8march, NY 14march. special guests & location to follow..," he wrote on Twitter. Here's hoping one of the special guests is Willow Smith.

Yorke and Godrich's debut Atoms for Peace album, Amok, is out on February 25 in Europe and February 26 in the U.S. via XL Recordings. Revisit "Default":

Hundred Waters' video for "Boreal" doesn't seem like it's going to be all that terrifying at first. It starts out with serene shots of the natural world, but right around the middle, things get... weird.

The track originally appeared on their self-titled debut. This spring, the Boreal EP will be released on Skrillex's OWSLA label. 

Below the video, check out the band's upcoming tour dates with Alt-J.

Filmmaker Grant Singer screened his film Youth Museum yesterday at MoMA PS1 in Long Island City, Queens. The film focuses on Bradford Cox of Deerhunter/Atlas Sound, following his "everyday life," according to a press release.

The screening was accompanied by performances by Cox and DIIV. Cox took the stage with his Deerhunter bandmates Lockett Pundt and Moses Archuleta to unleash some new Deerhunter material. 

Ebru Yildiz was there to shoot the show. Check out a selection of shots after the jump, then head over to our slideshow and Facebook page for even more photos. Watch the trailer for Youth Museum below as well.

BBC News reports that Reg Presley (pictured second to left), frontman for the 1960s garage rock icons the Troggs, has died after a battle with lung cancer. He was 71.

The Troggs had a string of hits in the 1960s, including "Wild Thing", "With a Girl Like You", "Love is All Around", "Any Way That You Want Me", and "I Can't Control Myself". Over the years, they've been cited as an influence by countless garage and punk bands, from the MC5 to Ty Segall. 

In 2002, Presley published a book on alien activity and crop circles called Wild Things They Don't Tell Us. The band continued on and off until January 2012, when Presley wrote an open letter on the band's website announcing his retirement.

As you all know I was taken ill whilst doing a gig in Germany in December. During my stay in hospital tests showed that in fact I have lung cancer. I am receiving chemotherapy treatment and at the moment not feeling too bad.

However I’ve had to call time on The Troggs and retire. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for the cards and calls and for your love, loyalty and support over the years.

A big thank you to Jackie for running the fan club and keeping you all up to speed, and a huge and special thank you to Chris, Pete and Dave.

I shall miss you all.

Lots of Love

Reg.

When the Flaming Lips announced a new LP, it seemed feasible that they might put their weirder endeavors on hold for a bit. Nope. The band has collaborated with the Dallas-based chocolatier Dude, Sweet Chocolate to release some anatomically correct chocolate hearts, which contain a USB mix called Songs ofLove.

Each box was signed by Coyne and Steven Drozd, and admittedly, the chocolate itself sounds pretty delicious: "72% South American dark chocolate studded with hazelnut mini whoppers and waffle cone crunch."

Below this Instagram photo of a blood-covered Wayne Coyne eating one of the hearts, check out the mix's tracklist. The Terror is out April 2 in the U.S. and April 1 in the UK via Bella Union and Warner Bros.

Songs of Love:

01 Love is Mind Control [ft. Stardeath and White Dwarfs]

Clad in a suit and tie, James played the track with the Roots, who built it from a folk tune into a huge, gospel-tinged orchestral piece, with horns and strings.

James returns to "Fallon" tonight to sit in with the Roots as the house band. (Local Natives are the musical guest.) Read Larry Fitzmaurice's interview with James here.

Morrissey will continue his reissuecampaign with a remastered version of his 1991 record Kill Uncle along with a special-edition release of the beloved 1989 single "The Last of the Famous International Playboys", as official fan site True to You reports.

Both Kill Uncle and "The Last of the Famous International Playboys" will be out on April 8 through Parlophone.
