The MacGruber soundtrack will hit store shelves on Tuesday, May 18, and Kristen Wiig is lending her vocal chops to a couple of the songs. I especially love the track ?Champion?. It?s 80s style music that?s guaranteed to stay stuck in your head for a long while. The Saturday Night Live comedienne is actually featured in three tracks total. Other songs on the soundtrack are from Toto, The Hives, The Black Keys, Michael Bolton and many more. There are a total of 15 tracks on the album. Go and grab it when it comes out! Kristen?s songs are enough to make you say that it?s worth it.

The Hives have just released a video for ?Fall is Just Something Grown Ups Invented? featuring a personal performance for Cartoon Network. The new high-energy single is now playing as the network?s fall theme song. The Hives? new album, The Black & White Album, is available in stores, and the band is currently on tour in Europe until 2008.

The Hives’ howlin’ Pelle Almqvist remains the international king of talk-idiot-talk stage patter. Pelle: “I’m out of control! Tell me to take it easy!” Crowd: “Take it easy!” Pelle: “No, I wooon’t!” He’s right ? he won’t. The Swedish garage-punk maniacs continue to polish their sharp-dressed groove on their fourth album, adding new tricks, rhythmic jolts and some very not-indie studio wizardry without denting their basic bang-on-the-head formula, as epitomized by “Try It Again.” Pharrell joins them for “T.H.E.H.I.V.E.S.,” bringing a robot-disco flair that could pass for LCD Sound system after group sex with Heatwave, while throwing in some demented doo-wop to “Well All Right!” “Giddy Up” and “Tick Tick Boom” tweak the Ramones-ready guitars with discreet funk. “A Stroll Through Hive Manor Corridors” is a strange, horror-movie keyboard instrumental, from the scene where the kids in the haunted house are about to step on the zombie’s grave. The most surprising success is “Puppet on a String,” with plonking piano and an eerie Tom Waits-cabaret-swing beat. Yet there’s no need to worry about the Hives succumbing to progress or sophistication ? their rock & roll manifesto is “Square One Here I Come.?
If you were on the search for a fun night out, you are most decidedly going to want to see what you can do about getting yourself tickets to see Guy Fosyth perform live while he is on tour. Whether you are already a fan or you would just like something different to do for a night out on the town, you most certainly are going to want to see what you can do about getting yourself seats to take in this great artist live!
