Anna Kendrick Takes on Wicked Men For LCD Soundsystem
Celebrities are all over music videos theses days, and Anna Kendrick takes her turn in LCD Soundsystem's latest for "Pow Pow." The actress is featured in a role far different from Natalie in Up in the Air or Stacy in Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. This time, she's a polished vixen who sets out to steal the souls of "wicked" men. Yes, you read that correctly.

The video follows Kendrick through a crowded club, a fancy restaurant, and an empty parking lot to gather up her posse of men before making them "see the light", so to speak. It's whimsical, stylish, and definitely strange, but still worth checking out. (Oh, the song is good too). Watch it after the jump.

What to Download: New Music This Week
Now that we have the week's DVD releases covered, it's time to get your fill of good music with the new albums hitting shelves. Treat your ears to these three.
Saddle up: Good news for Band of Horses fans who loved their previous two albums: their latest, Infinite Arms, contains more of their signature swooning rock. There's nothing insanely different here, but it's still comforting and gorgeous, particularly the single "Factory." Lead singer Ben Bridwell's mournful voice sparkles on the track "Compliments," while the album winds down with rainy day songs like "Neighbor" and "For Annabelle."
Blues brothers: The rocker duo that is The Black Keys gives us 15 more tunes on their new album Brothers. It's a solid blend that includes a few slow ballads, a little jamming, and plenty of toe-tappers. The guys have a badass way of singing about heartbreak, never losing that swagger. A solid effort from start to finish, it's the kind of album that stays on track and keeps your attention. My picks are the catchy "Ever Lasting Light", the jazzier "She's Long Gone", and "Howlin' For You."

Check Out the New LCD Soundsystem Video For "Drunk Girls"

One of my favorite performances at Coachella this weekend came from LCD Soundsystem. They brought the house down on Friday night, showing off their new party anthem "Drunk Girls." Now we've got a video to go along with the song: there's nary an intoxicated lady in sight, but there are plenty of mischief-making troublemakers dressed as pandas. That's right, pandas.

Your Coachella Shortlist: Friday's Standout Shows
Have you been keeping tabs on me on Twitter? If so, then you already know that I'm at Coachella this weekend to check out all of the music acts, thanks to H&M USA. I just wrapped up my first day, and man, what a great way to close out my evening. Jay-Z got the crowd jumping with a special guest (and fireworks!), but he's not the only crowd-pleaser. Here's a look at five acts from Friday that were audience favorites. Check in later as I recap more festival highlights!
New LCD Soundsystem: "Big Ideas" For the Movie 21
If the new track by LCD Soundsystem, "Big Ideas," sounds like it could be in a movie, well, it is! The fast-paced, slightly robotic-sounding song was commissioned for the Kevin Spacey movie 21 in which a bunch of MIT students use their brains to count cards at a Vegas casino and swindle their way to millions.
Stereogum, which premiered the song recently, suggests it will be used for a chase scene, though I think it might be placed during some kind of montage, like when all the students are honing their skills in preparation to win big at the casino. What do you think?

Song of the Day: Franz Ferdinand Cover LCD Soundsystem
One of my current musical obsessions is LCD Soundsystem's latest album, Sound of Silver, and recent Song of the Day honoree "All My Friends" continues to be on near-constant rotation. So I was delighted to find this cover of the song by highly satisfying British rockers Franz Ferdinand. Franz's take was produced by DJ Erol Alkan and will be the B-Side to LCD Soundsystem's "All My Friends" single, which comes out May 21 in the UK.

This cover version isn't astoundingly different from the original, but it's such a great song that I'm glad the band didn't try anything too radical. Plus, Franz Ferdinand saves the real surprises for the end. To listen, read more
