I've already requested a hard copy :D

Looks like there is finally some news about Interpol lastest work! They are givingaway "Lights" (first single) on the official Interpol site, go and grab it!

OMFG, this could be added to my favorites artist but first I have to wait for Summer. How To Destroy Angels seems to be a project of Trent Reznor and his wife (or future wife) Mariqueen Maandig. In their website there's a short film that sounds awesome and shows Mariqueen playing a synth with a ribbon controller, go check it out!

As we've been hinting, SHOP is coming soon — very soon! We're very excited to introduce you to a whole new way of shopping online, available only to our Lockerz membership.

During our pre-launch tests, we've learned a lot from our members. Lockerz becomes a better community with every email or text you send us. We love hearing what you like and don't like, and finding out what you want to see on the site. So as we begin SHOP, our plan is to conduct a short test before we start on a larger scale for more of our general membership. Just as PLAY launched in beta, we will do the same thing with SHOP, continuing to test, tweak and work out the bugs before we expand it.

As part of this testing phase, here's how it will go:

Z-List only. For the first few weeks of SHOP, we want to invite Z-List members to preview the site. Z-Listers are some of our most active and engaged members, and we want to thank them by letting them be the first testers. Only Z-Listers will be able to view SHOP.

U.S. In the very beginning, all Z-Listers will be able to browse SHOP, but only U.S. members will be able to make purchases. We are doing this because we're still working out customs issues, it's important to us to find ways to minimize the taxes and fees for our non-U.S. members getting a package with a huge bill attached is NOT the kind of experience we want to provide to our members!

Redemptions. Since the initial testing period will be U.S. and Z-List only, we will continue redemptions out of fairness to our other members.

Throughout this week we'll be letting you know more about SHOP, including some of the amazing brands and exclusive items, and how you can use and earn PTZ when you buy - so stay tuned.

Shop is about to be released for Z-List Members on Lockerz, this guys from Amazon know what are they doing. I'm sure there will be the best brands and good prices, plus discount with PTZ.

Also It's great to hear that they are working on minimize taxes and fees for International Members (Non-US). I really hope news about this next month because I'll try to redeem a MacBook 13".
