Forming in 1997, Chicago's Showoff comprised vocalist/guitarist Chris Envy (aka Chris Messer), bassist Dave Envy, drummer Dan Castady, and guitar player Graham Jordan. The punk-pop mathematical group released their self-titled debut album, which was produced by Goldfinger's John Feldmann, in 1999 on Maverick. Touring around with bands like the RX Bandits, Everclear, Allister, Citizen King, and Student Rick, among others, the banding also recorded their soph album with Mark Trombino before organism dropped by Maverick (at long last causing the criminal record to go unreleased) and break up in 2002. Members went on to form the pop/rock kit the Fold and Farewell My Enemy. Showoff re-formed in late 2005 with a new lineup consisting of introduction member Chris Envy, along with guitarist Nate Envy (aka Nate Thruman), drummer Mickey Molinari, and bassist Carl Kusch. A second guitarist, Lance Tamras, was added shortly after. The Waiting for You EP appeared in May 2006 on Pacific Ridge, and various shows were played in support. Showoff's reincarnation was transitory, however, and by August interior problems culminated in their adjournment.

DANIELIA COTTON

Rare Child (Adrenaline): B+

Comparisons may be odious, but Cotton gives you little choice about referencing The Black Crowes and their mix of Southern rock, Southern soul and ’70s Brit-rock revivalism in describing her third album. But what Cotton has that Chris Robinson lacks is an honest-to-God voice with real power, conviction, emotion and soul. It doesn’t quite make up for the dud songs, but when the singing and songwriting are in alignment, as on “Testify,” wow. just stand back. Download: “Bang My Drum.”

Britney Spears Working On 'Experimental' New Album

Following news that she is set to make a spectacular live show return in Las Vegas, Britney Spears has been getting back in the studio to work on an amazing comeback record, according to her producer.

Music mogul J.R. Rotem has lured the pop wreck back into recording another hit record, accompanied by hitmaker Sean Garrett.
 
And he insists Spears is back at her best after a crazy 2007 ended with hospitalisations for a bipolar disorder, custody battles and career issues.

He says: "She's great. She's like a master at what she does. She's a lot more experienced than most people. She just has the 'it' factor that not every artist has.

"It's always nice to work with her."

Rotem briefly dated Spears last year and hit the headlines when he suggested the pop star might be pregnant in a stray text message.

A source close to Spears confirms the singer is working on the "experimental stages" of a new album, the follow-up to Blackout, which was released in October.

And Garrett tells People: "I'm just happy to see her back and recovering. She's really shaping up and getting her whole situation back together. I'm really proud and happy to see her."

Depp, Farrell and Law to complete Ledger film

Heath Ledger's last film will go ahead with Johnny Depp, Colin Farrell and Jude Law as the late actor's replacements, director Terry Gilliam confirmed yesterday.
Ledger was working on fantasy adventure 'The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus' when he died of an accidental overdose in January.
Gilliam said in a statement: "I am grateful to Johnny, Colin and Jude for coming on board and to everyone else who has made it possible for us to finish the film.
"I am delighted that Heath's brilliant performance can be shared with the world. We are looking forward to finishing the movie and, through the film, with a modicum of humility, being able to touch people's hearts and souls as Heath was able to do."
It had been suggested that Ledger's role would be completed using CGI (computer generated imagery) special effects, as happened when Oliver Reed died during the making of 'Gladiator'.
But the film's producers said: "Since the format of the story allows for the preservation of his entire performance, at no point will Heath's work be modified or altered through the use of digital technology. Each of the parts played by Johnny, Colin and Jude is representative of the many aspects of the character that Heath was playing."
The project is going ahead with the blessing and support of Ledger's family, the producers added.
Filming has resumed in Vancouver, Canada, and the movie is likely to be released early next year.
Ledger was found dead in his New York apartment on 22 January after taking an accidental overdose of prescription drugs.
Three days earlier he had filmed scenes for 'The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus' in London.
He left a two-year-old daughter, Matilda, by former partner Michelle Williams.
