[Watch] Nirvana's 1991 Paramount Theatre Show in Full for 24 Hours (27/09/11)

Continuing the 20th anniversary celebrations of the seminal Nirvana album, Nevermind, you can watch the full Paramount Theatre show from 1991, which last week we got a tease from in the form of "Territorial Pissings". Remastered and in full HD the footage looks like it was shot moments ago!

The concert is to be online from 5pm so in about an hour and 30 minutes time from when this post goes live. I advise you all to take an hour of your day from 5pm GMT to watch the show. As with the Pink Floyd concert it'll be online for just 24 hours so capitalise on this opportunity ASAP! If for some reason you miss it, it will be streamed again on Halloween.

[Watch] Radiohead performs two songs on Saturday Night Live

While Radiohead's eighth studio album The King of Limbs was released on February 18th, 2011, it's taken till now for the band to support the album by performing on late night American television. What a debut it was, though, with the band performing The King of Limbs tracks "Lotus Flower" and "Staircase." On top of that, the band will soon be appearing on The Colbert Report, and are set to play at New York's Roseland Ballroom on September 28th and 29th. Seems like a good start to a busy week.

You can watch both performances after the jump.

[Watch] Army Navy - "Ode To Janice Melt" (Video)

Okay, I've been around the block about 700 times when it comes to music videos, but I haven't seen one that both made me giggle uncontrollably because it's so silly and consistently say to myself "what in the world!?" in a VERY long time. Bravo, Army Navy! Bravo!

From their sophomore album, The Last Place, we have the video for "Ode To Janice Melt". The video was directed by Jeremy Konner and stars Jason Ritter in a...um... interesting(?) hidden relationship. I guess when it comes down to it, you can't choose who you fall in love with, can you? Either the way, the song shimmers like the last few rays of a sunset in the summer. Makes me want to grab their record all over again.

Army Navy will be co-headlining a Filter sponsored tour in October with Santah in addition to making a pitstop in NYC for CMJ from October 18-21. Dates below.

[Download] Van Hunt - "Eyes Like Pearls"

From Van Hunt's album What Were You Hoping For? comes "Eyes Like Pearls" - a guitar driven, tenison building, carefully crafted love song. There's an element of grease/grit to this that doesn't make you feel too overly sappy but the song itself was written so well that by the end of it you've fallen in love with love all over again.

Van Hunt is currently out on tour and has put together a contest on his Facebook page that ties in with the single to give entrants a chance to win a pair of tickets to a show on his tour. To enter, upload a photo to Van's wall that reminds you of, or is inspired by "Eyes Like Pearls". If the winner who is unable to make it to any of the shows, they will receive an autographed copy of What Were You Hoping For? in addition to being featured on Van's blog on his website.

What Were You Hoping For? drops on September 27th, which you can pre-order over on his website.
