Today in the Goodie Bag:

Pacific Northwest rockers Daphne Loves Derby are preparing to release Good Night, Witness Light, their long-awaited follow-up to On the Strength Of All Convinced, on March 27. In anticipation of its release, the band has just posted another new track entitled "Stranger You and I" on their Myspace page.

Mya's fourth cd and her Universal Motown Record's debut is the forthcoming Liberation (out June 26th) and it's the sound of a singer expressing herself with no limits. Here's a little taste of what's to come:

"Lock U Down" featuring Lil Wayne (Produced by Scott Storch):

"Ayo"

Last week we gave you the preview for Justin Timberlake's new video "What Goes Around...Comes Around" starring Scarlett Johansson, and now here is the full thing in all its "sexy" unshaven glory:

The new Dir En Grey video for "Clever Sleazoid" from their upcoming album Marrow of a Bone rocks so loud that the sound waves were shaking the camera. Am I the only one who finds the lead singer to be a little scary? Plus, I really hate insects.


Check out this video of a very creative instrumental cover of "My Way" from African guitarist Jay Lou Ava

    Clever Sleazoid is a great song. It makes me laugh that it's being marketed as a new video, though, when it's a year old- the single released in 2006 in Japan ;) New to America, I guess.
