Gnarls Barkley have just dropped the video for their new single, “Going On.” Shot in Jamaica, the video follows a group of friends as they “celebrate their discovery of a portal into another dimension” as a series of yellow words guide them. Don’t worry - you won’t need a mirror to read the words this time…

Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl has penned an open letter to Metallica asking them not to release their new album unless it’s “kick-ass.” You guessed it - it’s a slow news day! Anyhoo, the letter from Grohl reads:
“Dear METALLICA,
“Hey, it’s Dave! Remember me? Yeah, I’m the guy that’s been listening to your band faithfully since 1983. I bought your first album ‘Kill ‘Em All’ from a mailorder catalogue called Under The Rainbow, I think. Actually I can’t remember. It was 1983 for Christsakes! But that album changed my life and I’ve been listening to your albums ever since (even ‘St Anger’!).
“I can’t wait to hear the new shit, and no matter what you guys do I’ll always be first one at the shop waiting to hear it. I’m sure you’ll come out and blow everybody’s fuckin’ minds, because you’re fuckin’ METALLICA!
“Good luck. And don’t release it until it’s kick-ass.
“Yours, Dave Grohl.
“P.S. Are you finished recording the drums yet?”
So, there’s that…
Ever wished you had something to listen to in between those late night viewings of Futurama and Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!? Record label Ghostly International and modern late-night cult classic programmers [Adult Swim] have joined forces to release Ghostly Swim - a genre-busting compilation of 19 new tracks. The best part? They’re giving it away Reznor-style (i.e., as an absolutely free download)!

John Mayer’s comedy résumé is increasingly ambitous and impressive - including some stand-up, a VH1 variety show, a 2 Girls 1 Cup parody, and (of course) a bright green Borat-style man thong. So, it shouldn’t be too surprising that his latest viral video (entitled Makin’ Music with John Mayer) was produced by Judd Apatow and features Kristen Bell and J.B. “Get In That Ass” Smoove, right? Right?!? The very funny clip features the guitarist giving fans a glimpse behind the scenes of his song-writing process and an exposé of why he needs a drug addict-for-hire, an angry focus group and a team of songwriters to help pen tracks about “when you’re fucking one supermodel and you make the other ones jealous.”
