DAVID SHIRE
2010 (Original Music From The Motion Picture)
1984 U.S. pressing

Since everyones’s all “spaced out” with space fever, this seemed appropriate.

The soundtrack is great, but I’d like to use this opportunity to defend 2010 as a film.

It’s actually a pretty good movie, and an engaging continuation of the story; what happened to the vessel, Bowman, and what went wrong.

It may be more conventional and dialogue heavy, but holds its own after Kubrick set a near impossible standard.

The soundtrack to 2010 is less abstract, but suspenseful and emotional. Also very different than the original film’s soundtrack of pre-existing classical, but very effective for the sequel.

Album cover of Heartworms by The Shins features a surreal, psychedelic landscape created by artist Jacob Escobedo. The design is dominated by an oversized, pale skull in the upper right, which emits swirling, smoke-like tendrils that weave through the composition. This macabre element contrasts with the vibrant, blooming flowers and organic shapes at the bottom, visually representing the internal tension found in tracks like Dead Alive and The Fear.

The word HEARTWORMS is integrated into the artwork as a series of blocky, multi-colored stairs or ladders that ascend through a dark, clouded sky. This staircase motif suggests a mental or emotional climb, mirroring the album's themes of aging and self-reflection in songs like Mildenhall and Name for You. The overall style combines retro-pop aesthetics with a sense of gothic unease, capturing James Mercer’s signature blend of upbeat melodies and anxious lyrical depth.

🇸🇪 Spiders - 'Killer Machine'. 🎸🕷️🕸️⚡💿 (6 April 2018)
‎ ‎ ‎
I believe I mentioned it hundreds of posts ago, but for the best part of the last two decades (and still going strong), Sweden has been churning out cracking rock bands and records, nailing that “retro” vibe whilst still sounding fresh, and Spiders are right up there for me, and 'Killer Machine', their third studio album, is easily one of my all-time favourites. Not a single duff track on this absolute stonker of a hard rock (’n’ roll) record, if you ask me. "So Easy", "Shock And Awe", "Like A Wild Child" and "Higher Spirits" to name a few. Properly recommend giving them a listen if get the chance!
