Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks’ Beck Produced Album Out in August

Having spent a good part of 2010 on the road with some band he used to be a part of, Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks are ready to prep the release of a new, Beck produced album. Coming out August 23, Mirror Traffic was started about a year ago, but the Pavement reunion tour led to it being delayed for a while. This will be the second Beck produced album coing out this summer, along with fellow indie icon Thurston Moore’s Demolished Thoughts, which dropped today. Mirror Traffic will be the last Jicks album featuring drummer Janet Weiss, who is heading off to work full time with her new band, Wild Flag, with Mary Timony and her Sleater-Kinney bandmate Carrie Brownstein. Matador promises MP3s soon, and we’ll be sure to share. In the meantime, we’ll marvel at the fact that this article mentions Pavement, Beck, Sonic Youth, and Sleater-Kinney.

Fox Picks Up Four Shows, Dumps Five

Good news today for fans of Manic Pixie Dream Girls and bad news for fans of White Sox-loving cops. With the fall season coming to a close and network upfronts on their way, Fox has picked up four new shows, including The New Girl, a Zooey Deschanel vehicle that features Mrs. Ben Gibbard as a suddenly single teacher who moves in with three guys. Also picked up were J.J. Abrams’ Alcatraz, I Hate My Teenage Daughter, and a Bones spin-off, Finder. To make room, the network is dropping poor performers Breaking In, The Human Target, Lie to Me, Traffic Light, and Sean Ryan’s cop drama The Chicago Code. Rumor is the rest of their lineup will be filled with shows with singing and Seth McFarlane. [Ed. Note: That was a startlingly accurate joke]
