I am really excited to share the first single off of my upcoming full-length LP and film for Kill Rock Stars, each titled SOFTCORE. Find me at the intersection of masculinity and femininity, of hard and soft.
This first song — out today — is the album opener, and it’s a cover of an old Bill Callahan SMOG jam, To Be Of Use. This track is one of my all-time favorites from my youth and, for me, it has always been about wanting to feel useful in a relationship, and in the world.
— LOGAN LYNN VOX LUX —
This week, we talk to indie pop dance legend and Kill Rock Stars recording artist, Logan Lynn, who picked the extremely intense music narrative film, Vox Lux, to discuss. We discussed the realities and tropes of music films, Lynn’s early years as a teenager on a major label, the lack of protection for young artists within creative industries, addressing addiction and trauma in your art, the notion of selling out, backstage rituals, making fun of ‘The Devil’, the Swedish Pop Mafia, how music gets taken out of context, whether or not Natalie Portman is a convincing pop icon in the movie and so much more. So get ready to dance through the pain on this week’s Revolutions Per Movie.
