Infant Sorrow at No.1

June 22nd, 2010

infantsorrowInfant Sorrow’s debut album, “Get Him to the Greek,” has landed at No. 1 debut on Billboard’s Heatseekers Albums chart.
Russell, as rocker Aldous Snow, sings all the tracks on the record. The songs were written and recorded by a number of high-profile British rockers, including Carl Barat of the Libertines and Jarvis Cocker.

In an interview with Billboard Russell said, “We took the music for this film very seriously. We got brilliant writers and tried to make it as authentic as possible. We wanted songs that were quality and quirky-like a rock version of Flight of the Conchords.”

And we have a bunch of Infant Sorrow CDs to giveaway through rb.tv and an exclusive vid as well – check back for details (probably get this up for you tomorrow to mark the UK release of The Greek)

The soundtrack is available now on iTunes, and your local independent record stores

    I was pleasantly surprised by the great music on the soundtrack, Russ et al. did an amazing job and the top spot is well deserved – ”we got the clap, can’t be beat, got it off the back of a toilet seat” is a stroke of brilliance.

    Ah, the wonders of Auto-Tune…

    Doesn’t sound one jot like ‘When I’m 64′ – which was Brand at his zenith in my ears.
    Gutted.
