SXSW 2011 Film Spotlight: Taken By Storm




Head to your record collection and grab a handful of albums at random. Chances are you'll be holding at least one piece of iconic imagery from English graphic designer, Storm Thorgerson.

Taken By Storm: The Art of Storm Thorgerson and Hipgnosis documents the life and work of the man responsible for so many of rock's visual masterpieces. His album cover resume includes Led Zeppelin, Yes, The Mars Volta, Muse and several others. But it his work with Pink Floyd where he is at his best. It is a nearly impossible feat to listen to any Floyd album and not conjure up images of factories, light breaking through prisms, or industry "suits" on fire.

Taken By Storm premiers tonight at 9pm at the Alamo Ritz with additional screening throughout the week.

Them Crooked Vultures (the supergroup) give short video preview.



The new supergroup Them Crooked Vultures consisting of the Foo Fighters Dave Grohl, Queens of the Stone Age's Josh Homme and Led Zeppelin's John Paul Jones just gave fans a preview of the upcoming songs with a 33 second video preview (below). Sounds pretty damn good to me, especially since supergroups almost always suck. But as long as you have Grohl on drums where he belongs, what can go wrong?
