High school buddies Chris Brady and Charlie Campbell resettled from their hometown of Juneau, AK, to Portland, OR, in 1989. Two years afterwards, they recruited drummer Dave Triebwasser (ex-Thrillhammer) and formed Pond. They were quickly signed to Sub Pop, and their eponymic 1993 debut album gibe nicely into the Pacific Northwest grime move that was bossy popular music. But with their short hair and earnest songs, Pond ne'er quite fit into the grease scene and they struggled to win notoriety away of Portland and Seattle, where they had in fact become quite popular. Their second Sub Pop record album, 1995's The Practice of Joy Before Death, brought a darker sound, just non a wider audience. Despite their modified winnow base, decisive acclaim was building, and finally Pond would become one of many gumptious bands to sign to a major tag. That label was Sony's WORK Group, and Pond's fantastic major debut Rock Collection appeared in 1997 to often critical praise only a collective yawn from consumers. Their single, "Spokes," did non garner coherent wireless play outside of the Northwest, and Rock Collection disappeared from the commercial microwave radar before long afterwards its tone ending. Pond parted ways with Sony in early 1998 and was rumored to be working on a unexampled album. But by late 1998, Pond's members had touched on to different interests, devising a modern Pond album unlikely to happen in the succeeding.

Angelina Jolie - Jolie Feels For Bumbling Black Over Baby News Blunder
ANGELINA JOLIE feels sorry for KUNG FU PANDA co-star JACK BLACK after he accidentally went public with the actress' baby news during a TV interview.
The funnyman thought it was common knowledge that Jolie was expecting twins and joked about the fact during an interview with a U.S. TV show at the Cannes Film Festival in France last month (May08).
His remarks sparked an international media frenzy - because they led to Jolie, who was sitting next to Black, to confirm the baby news.
She says, "Poor Jack! Immediately when he saw (my partner) Brad Pitt, he apologised. But we both told him very clearly that we had only waited... until all results are in on their (twins) health, and that we were past that point."
Jolie insists she had no problems with Black blurting out the news: "If somebody had asked me directly (if I was pregnant with twins), I would have said yes, so he didn't do anything but take the heat himself."

Breeders Sisters Go Doublemint at Birthday Show
Kim & Kelley.Photo: Amy Squires
“They’re like Doublemint gum,” a middle-aged man spouted excitedly at the Breeders’ Webster Hall show last night. “How do you tell them apart?” It was an annoying joke from a sloppy drunk, but the comment did touch on the night’s special symmetry: Front-lady sisters Kim and Kelley Deal were celebrating their (47th) birthdays — which means, for the astrologically disinclined, that they are not only twins, but also Geminis, whose astrological symbol represents the twin. The show reunited loving sisters (both in plain black shirts) with adoring fans and paired thrumming distortion with delicate hush, jokey asides with harrowing songs. The music — which included a grab bag of covers, “Happiness Is a Warm Gun” among them — was tight and fast but thankfully not quite neat and clean; it was often tough to make out what Kim (and less so Kelly) was singing. But we all heard her loud and clear when she announced, ostensibly to the violinist friend who joined them onstage, “You know my mom’s got the Alzheimer’s … You saw her last summer, right? She’s way worse now.” It was a testament to the night’s all-around openness of feeling that Kim’s boozy admission somehow fit right into the celebratory (first) encore. Encore two culminated in an audience rendition of “Happy Birthday” and the bringing out of a cake. Grinning wide, Kim flipped everyone the bird — with both hands. —Nick Catucci
