midnight lion – all greatness stands firm

this unsigned glasgow duo used to be parts of atlas skye and drive-by argument. i’m a little sick of lion in the titles of band names, but it’s certainly better than drive-by argument. regardless, this song rocks. it’s a pounding synth anthem that is begging for a phat remix. it’s like the bravery (when they were awesome) got drunk with peter gabriel, had sex, and midnight lion popped out nine months later.

40-year-old alex mcqueen, acclaimed fashion designer, was found hanging at his home this morning. he designed the cover for bjork’s homogenic and david bowie’s earthling. mostly recently he worked with the duke spirit and lady gaga. he was the head designer of givency in the late 90s and then became creative director of gucci for some time. queen elizabeth II even made him a commander for the british empire for his fashion leadership in 2003. he was a genius and an icon and he will be greatly missed.
