FNX FILES [FRIDAY - 1/25]

R.E.M. shot the video for their new single, "Supernatural Superserious," Monday in New York City in two very different locales. Part of the video was shot in the Italian restaurant Inoteca...while the rest was filmed that night in what Billboard describes as a "sex toy emporium" called Babeland. A 30 second clip of "Supernatural Superserious" can now be heard on R.E.M.'s official Web site, remhq.com. The artwork for the new album Accelerate also appears in scrambled form on the site, but fans have decoded it to figure out the track listing: "Living Well's The Best Revenge," "Man Sized Wreath," "Supernatural Superserious," "Hollow Man," "Houston," "Accelerate," "Until The Day Is Done," "Mr. Richards," "Sing For The Submarine," "Horse To Water" and "I'm Gonna DJ."

Armor For Sleep have just announced that they'll be joining the Bamboozle Roadshow 2008 along with Saves The Day, Set Your Goals and Metro Station. Bamboozle Roadshow will begin March 28 in Seattle with stops in more than 30 cities, including the Bamboozle Left Festival in Irvine, CA, and the Bamboozle Festival in E. Rutherford, NJ.

Details of Lily Allen's new TV show have started to emerge. The singer is set to front her own series on BBC 3 later in the year, and following the launch of the programme's official website more about the format has become known. Posting on the blog section of the site, producer Patrick Ruddy explained that the production team are currently working on the pilot episode after it was shot this week (January 23). "Just a quick post to let you know the pilot is coming along a treat," he explained on bbc.co.uk/lilyallen/. Information on the site revealed that Blur bassist Alex James and comedian Alan Davies are studio guests in the first show. Fans can also become a "friend of the show". Doing so allows them to vote for which bands should feature, pose questions for the guests and possibly watch the show being filmed.
