“Having survived bosses like Courtney Love and Billy Corgan, it's amazing that Melissa Auf der Maur has never received an award from the Human Resources Coalition of America. These famous dalliances with megalomania behind her, MAdM (as she is now known) has gone all Matthew Barney on us, releasing a second solo record and a short film, both titled Out of Our Minds (or Ooom). Neither the multi-genre music nor the dialogue-free film is likely to make her tomorrow's Taylor Swift, but when the goal is more Patti Smith than Miley Cyrus, that's probably just fine. This week she double-dips on LA, with a show at the Viper Room today, and a screening of the movie at Cinefamily on Thursday, April 1.”
