You Am I reveal Convicts tracklisting
You Am I have revealed the tracklisting for their seventh studio album, Convicts, which will hit stores in May. The album was recorded with producer Greg Wales in 16 days, in five studios, across a five-month period. Convicts' 12 tracks are described as "a quick [36 minutes], slightly grubby and occasionally freaky reminder of Messrs Rogers, Hopkinson, Kent and Lane's collective charm". If fresh, high-octane first single "It Ain't Funny How We Don't Talk Anymore" is any indication, calls that "this is the tightest and loosest You Am I have ever sounded" are spot on. Tracklisting:
"Thank God I've Hit The Bottom"
"It Ain't Funny How We Don't Talk Anymore"
"Friends Like You"
"Nervous Kid"
"Secrets"
"Thuggury"
"Be My Own Hand"
"The Sweet Life"
"Gunslingers"
"Constance George"
"Explaining Cricket"
"I'm A Mess"

Wonder Stuff star killed
[source: NME.com] Former The Wonder Stuff drummer Martin Gilks has died in a London hospital following a motorcycle accident. The band enjoyed massive success in the late 80s and early 90s before splitting in 1994. They scored a number one hit in 1991 with their cover of Tommy Roe's "Dizzy", while other hits included "The Size Of A Cow", "Welcome To The Cheap Seats" and "Don't Let Me Down, Gently". After the group disbanded, Gilks, 41, went into management, working with A, Reef and Hundred Reasons. A spokesperson for his company, Furtive, told the BBC he was "greatly loved by many and will be sorely missed by all his family and friends".

The Polyphonic Spree orchestrate change
The Polyphonic Spree have revealed their forthcoming third studio album, The Fragile Army, will be less orchestral than previous efforts. But fear not: the choir and robes remain intact. "It's definitely going to have that element, but it's our most urgent record to date," frontman Tim DeLaughter told Rolling Stone. "It's a bit resonant of the times. There's a song called "The Fragile Army" and it's basically an ode-to-Bush song. It's disgruntled with how things have been going and how split up it seems we are as Americans. There is a sense, for me, of trying to create some sort of unity with people."

Jessica Simpson to sing about D.I.V.O.R.C.E.?
Jessica Simpson, the singer who transformed her career by turning her marriage into the reality TV show Newlyweds, has reportedly delayed the release of her new album - originally due out last November - so she can incorporate "a lot of things I'm going through". That wouldn't include cashing in on her split with bubby Nick Lachey, would it? "I think that with my music, you can't help but tell people a story about your life," Simpson told mtv.com. "I believe every artist, that's their artistry - it comes out of them naturally, through lyrics, through music, through instrumentation. So with this next record, you will see and hear a lot of things I've been going through. And if that can offer any inspiration to anybody else going through the same situations, so be it. That's why I'm here." Reports Simpson is planning a cover of Tammy Wynette's D.I.V.O.R.C.E remain unsubstantiated…
