Despite the fact that fans have been waiting since 1991 for a new album, Kevin Shields says there will be another My Bloody Valentine record. The band essentially stopped working on a follow-up to Loveless in 1995.
The outgoing terrorism coordinator at the State Department, Henry Crumpton, has said that the Iraq War has made the US less safe, and argues that we will be hit again.

The Gene Simmons Family Jewels TV show is coming to the UK. The family will be travelling to the UK to promote the show next month.
