- U2
U2's latest entry is a mostly underwhelming collection of songs that does very little to sound any different from its equally pedestrian predecessor, 2000's "All That You Can't Leave Behind." While

This timeless masterpiece is little known, but it has inspired almost as many bands as The Modern Lovers' own inspiration -- and only slightly better known -- The Velvet Underground & Nico.

On their latest CD, Supernature, Goldfrapp has put together a successful mix of 1980-era New Romanticism, German cabaret, and T. Rex glam that leaves you riveted even through the album's lulls. It's a great amalgam that sounds current without sounding at all dated.

iPod Add-on Has Apple All Worked Up
Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007 at 4:00 PM - by Jeff Gamet
Even though women all over the U.K. seem happy with a special iPod "attachment," Apple’s legal team is hot under the collar. Representatives from the iPod maker have been demanding that stores selling the iGasm, a personal pleasure attachment for the iPod, take down posters advertising the product, according to News of the World.
It’s the posters, and not so much the device, that has Apple’s legal team hot and bothered. The posters resemble Apple’s famous silhouette ads, but in this case the iPod is plugged into more than just the listener’s ears.

A letter from Apple to the adult shop chain Ann Summers stated "We hope this request to remove [the posters] immediately will prevent us having to consider further action."
So far, the chain plans to carry on with business as usual and keep the signs up. Jacqueline Gold, the woman behind the Ann Summers stores, commented "Perhaps I can send them an iGasm to put a smile back on their faces!"
For now, it appears the only thing that will put a smile back on Apple’s legal team faces will be the removal of the posters - a move that will likely leave Ms. Gold with a frown.
