"Come Undone" is a tune taken from the third collaborative studio album "Hawk" by Scottish indie pop singer Isobel Campbell and American alternative rock musician Mark Lanegan, released on 24 August 2010 on V2 Records. Recorded throughout the United Kingdom and the United States, Hawk features a number of guest musicians, including folk singer Willy Mason, bassist Bill Wells and former SMASHING PUMPKINS guitarist James Iha.
Today's tune "Come Undone" where the power comes from their tension between Isobel Campbell's wispy indie-pop coo and Mark Lanegan's deep blues-grunge growl, enjoy this beautiful rendition.
MARILYN MANSON releases a dark twisted black and white world in his latest video "The Mephistopheles of Los Angeles" taken form his latest album "The Pale Emperor"
In an interview with Rolling Stone, MANSON revealed that many of the songs on "The Pale Emperor" were recorded in a single take. "It's dirty," he said, "like the dirt under my nails, like someone who has dug a grave."
MANSON will team up with his friend Billy Corgan and SMASHING PUMPKINS for "The End Times" co-headlining tour. They will hit the road together starting July 7 in Concord, California, and ending on August 8 in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Todays tune "Mephistopheles of Los Angeles" it taken from the new album, The Pale Emperor, available now wherever music is sold. The Video is Directed By: Francesco Carrozzini and Featuring Michael K. Williams

Smashing Pumpins starting their European tour in Scandinavia, Stockholm, Sweden. Last Tuesday started the construction of the stage, sound, lighting and decor in Annexet here in Stockholm, a rehearsal day before it was time to play for the audience the next day. Downstairs, where the construction of Rihanna with full attention, actually she had two sold-out house (Tuesday, Wednesday), passed
spectacle briefly but did spend the most of the time upstairs where the music at least went to listen to. :-)
With a fairly simple, but spaced lighting rig with two spinning glass propellers and glimmering gold decoration hanging on the back drop, six light towers, three on each side got their light technician "Lawrence" a pretty impressive and psychedelic vision impression, a light that fits in well with the music that was played this evening. The setlist contained a lot of previous works, but occasional new song was played. The band was very tagged, had a good spirit and the music did swing on just fine, well-played with great feeling, the sound was poorly at first, before it lay down on a decent level.
Support on the tour is Ringo Deathstarr
The Smashing Pumpkins are an American alternative rock band that formed in Chicago, Illinois in 1988. Formed by Billy Corgan frontman (vocals, guitar) and James Iha (guitar), the band has included Jimmy Chamberlin (drums), D'arcy Wretzky (bass), and currently includes Jeff Schroeder (guitar, backing vocals) Mike Byrne (drums), and Nicole Fiorentino (bass guitar, backing vocals) amongst its membership.
Disavowing the punk rock roots of many of their alt-rock contemporaries, the Pumpkins have a diverse, densely layered and guitar-heavy sound, containing elements of gothic rock, grunge, heavy metal, dream pop, psychedelic rock, progressive rock, shoegazer-style production and, in later recordings, electronica. Frontman Billy Corgan is the group's primary songwriter—his grand musical ambitions and cathartic lyrics have shaped the band's albums and songs, which have been described as "anguished, bruised reports from Billy Corgan's nightmare-land".
The Smashing Pumpkins broke into the musical mainstream with their second album, Siamese Dream (1993). The group built its audience with extensive touring and their follow-up, the double album Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness (1995). The Smashing Pumpkins were one of the most commercially successful and critically acclaimed bands of the 1990s. However, internal fighting, drug use, and diminishing record sales led to a 2000 break-up.
In 2006, Billy Corgan and Jimmy Chamberlin reconvened to record a new Smashing Pumpkins album, Zeitgeist. The band toured with a rotating lineup of between five and nine musicians through much of 2007 and 2008 before Chamberlin left the band in early 2009. New drummer Mike Byrne and bassist/vocalist Nicole Fiorentino solidified a new lineup with Corgan and Schroeder, toured through much of 2010 & 2011. Just released the album Teargarden by Kaleidyscope.
