Having transplanted to the West Coast, the (former) New York indie band, TV on the Radio is back with a fifth album, “Seeds” . The followup to 2011’s “Nine Types of Light” marks the first LP release since the passing of former bassist, Gerard Smith, in 2011. “Seeds” is characterized as a celebration by the band. Filled with upbeat sounds and optimistic lyrics, the album is a beautiful break from the band’s usual experimental approach to music, that is just as great.

“Seeds” is set to release November 18th via Harvest Records

“Foxcatcher” is the true story of eccentric heir John du Pont (Steve Carell) and Olympic-gold winning wrestler, Mark Schultz (Channing Tatum). Du Pont invites Mark to train for the 1998 Seoul Olympics at his palatial estate, Foxcatcher Farm, where Mark and his elder brother (Mark Ruffalo) enter into a co-dependent and psychologically warped game of wills with the millionaire mentor.

Bennett Miller came away with “Best Director” at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival for “Foxcatcher.” Oscar-nominated for his previous biographical films “Moneyball” (2011) and “Capote” (2005), Miller has already proven his finesse for mixing fact and fiction on-screen, and this film shouldn’t deviate.

You can see “Foxcatcher” in select US theaters November 14.
