MOVIE THE FLESH OF THE ORCHID - PATRICE CHEREAU - CHARLOTTE RAMPLING - 1975

MUSIC THE PAINS OF BEING PURE AT HEART - BELONG - 28 MARCH 2011




The speaker-swallowing guitars that rise up at the start of "Belong" roughly translate to "fuck twee." The new Pains of Being Pure at Heart aren't the same cassette-hissers angling for that anchor spot on your indie valentine C60 mix. Not quite. Bulked up by the sonic tinkering of 1990s alt-rock studio gods Flood and Alan Moulder, these sometime pun-lovers are giving life to their own Siamese Dream, gunning for the Pumpkins at their most pop. And, at this point, they're beating Billy Corgan at the game he invented.

HARMONY KORINE WEIRDLY PHOTOGRAPHS URBAN OUTFITTERS - 2011













Known for beautifully abrasive films like Kids and Gummo, Harmony Korine brings his creepy nostalgia to Urban Outfitter’s latest look book. Featuring models that look as though they were abducted from the set of MTV’s Skins, it’s Korine’s trademark mix of pretty and scary that makes UO’s soft preppy appeal pop against the dingy suburban landscapes. With floral patterns, flowing silhouettes and plenty of jeans, UO styles a carefree Midwestern flair that defines college wardrobes across the country. And Korine’s dreamy (nightmarish?) collage work and stark sketches compliment strip off the polish and cuteness. Although Korine has done previous work in fashion (let’s not forget his controversial Proenza Schouler video), his comfort parsing through adolescent angst is what makes these images work.
