As Rolling Stone points out, Reuters reports that the classic MTV cartoon "Beavis and Butt-Head" will return to the air later this year with new episodes. Rolling Stone speculates that series creator Mike Judge will once again voice both characters, but MTV hasn't revealed any further details about the new version of the show. If they come back as computer-generated polygons, somebody's getting slapped. Still, anyone who was a kid in the 90s will tell you that this is great news.

M.I.A. also posted a panel of Vicki Leekx logos and a video for the first 10 minutes of the mix, which you can watch below. The video combines M.I.A.'s recent kaleidoscopic internet-overload video style with genuinely unnerving WikiLeaks-style footage of third-world cityscapes and shit blowing up.

Washington City Paper reports that Brendan Majewski, former bassist for the Washington, DC band outfit Quix*o*tic, committed suicide on January 20 in New York City. He was 37 years old. (Via the Daily Swarm.)

Majewski's musical career began in the late 1990s as a member of the Baltimore band Murder. While in that band, he met Mira Billotte (now of White Magic) at the Maryland Institute College of Art and formed Quix*o*tic in 1998 with Mira and her sister Christina (formerly of Bratmobile, Autoclave and Slant 6). The band combined elements of doo-wop and early R&B with spartan post-punk affectations, as demonstrated on their cover of Smokey Robinson and the Miracles' 1961 single "What's So Good About Goodbye", which you can hear below.

The band self-released a single, "Heliotrope", as well as a full-length produced by Fugazi's Guy Picciotto, Night for Day, before Majewski left the band in 2001. (They later recruited Orthrelm's Mick Barr and signed to Kill Rock Stars.) Majewski later went on to form the metal-leaning NYC outfit Orphan. Check out audio and video of some of Majewski's work with Quix*o*tic and Orphan below.

Weezy hijacks Wiz Khalifa's "Black and Yellow"

Tweet Hear Lil Wayne's Green Bay Packers Anthem

MP3: Lil Wayne: "Green and Yellow"

Last year, the New Orleans Saints won the Super Bowl just as Lil Wayne was preparing to ship off to prison. Everyone thought that Wayne-- a New Orleans native, after all-- would be delighted. But no. As Wayne told anyone who would listen, he is, for absolutely inexplicable reasons, a fan of the Green Bay Packers. After all, when you think of the freezing, working-class town of Green Bay, Wisconsin, you think of face-tatted, drug-gobbling rap stars, right?

As you may have heard, this Sunday, the Packers will head to the Super Bowl to play the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Steelers already have an honest-to-god Super Bowl anthem: "Black and Yellow", a monster hit from the Pittsburgh rapper Wiz Khalifa, which turns the team's colors into the sort of mantra that you will never, ever get out of your head no matter how hard you try. Wiz even performed the song before the AFC Championship Game a week-and-a-half ago, when the Steelers beat the Jets to clinch a Super Bowl spot. Tons of rappers, from Young Jeezy to Tom Hanks' son, have already recorded a freestyle over "Black and Yellow"-- an easy thing to do, since literally any four-syllable phrase fits right into the chorus.

The Packers, on the other hand, had a fight song by, um, Butch Vig, but no big name rap anthem-- until this morning, when Wayne posted his own Packers-themed "Black and Yellow" freestyle on his blog.

The best thing about Wayne's "Green and Yellow" is the way it comes from a true fan's perspective. He sticks hard to the Packers theme throughout: "We knocked the Eagles and the Falcons and the Bears off / Now we 'bout to cut Troy Polamalu's hair off." (As a Ravens fan, I pray this happens.) He also says on the intro that it's not a diss song, but one repeated line seems like an ill subliminal directed at the young Mr. Khalifa: "I'm a cheesehead, y'all niggas Cheez Whiz."

If you can stand to look at Terrible Towels for three minutes and 51 seconds, watch the "Black and Yellow" video below.

The Pains of Being Pure at Heart: "Belong"

The beginning of "Belong"-- the title track and new single from the Pains of Being Pure at Heart's second album, which is out March 29 via Slumberland-- features the indie-pop band casually jangling along. But it's something of a red herring. Right at the fifteen-second mark, the guitars blitz out louder and harder than anything on their self-titled debut. The gargantuan distortion recalls nothing less than prime-era Smashing Pumpkins, which makes sense considering Belong was produced by Flood and mixed by Alan Moulder, aka the guys who helped craft the sounds of Pumpkins classics like Siamese Dream and Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, not to mention records by My Bloody Valentine, Nine Inch Nails, U2, PJ Harvey, Depeche Mode, and many more. Basically, if you grew up in the 90s, your ears are subconsciously attuned the studio wizardry of Flood and Alan Moulder.

We recently met up with the band at the delightfully cheesy grilled-meats chain Dallas BBQ in downtown Manhattan. As lead singer Kip Berman slurped a red, white, and blue frozen drink called the "Firecracker," he and the rest of the group-- that's keyboardist Peggy Wang, bassist Alex Naidus, and drummer Kurt Feldman-- talked about their unlikely studio gurus in semi-shocked tones. The chummy foursome were more than happy to chat about the movie Clueless and something called a Travel Pussy, too.

Click on for the Q&A, the cover art for Belong, and Pains' spring tour dates, including a trek with Twin Shadow:

Pitchfork: How did you end up working with Alan Moulder and Flood?

Kip Berman: Alan had expressed interest in working with us two years ago, but we never thought it was going to happen. When it came time to record, Alan couldn't produce the record because of scheduling but he could mix it. But then he was like, "Would you be interested in Flood?" It was like a fantasy world. I mean, a band on our level just doesn't have those experiences ever. These people were involved in the records that inspired us to make music.

Peggy Wang: Before this experience, I didn't really even understand what a producer was. I associate producers with big, successful albums, so it didn't even seem within the realm of possibility for us. At the same time, we wanted to record the album differently than the first one, and this was an opportunity to do that.

Pitchfork: Were you anxious about recording with Flood?

KB: Yeah. We had a conference call with him beforehand, and I thought, "He might not like the sound of our voices-- he could change his mind!" And there were a lot of fears-- like, is this guy going to show up and tell us to do these sweeping Edge guitar solos? But, really, it helped us be more us.

Alex Naidus: I didn't know if I was supposed to call him "Flood." [laughs] The answer is yes-- that's all he goes by. Then I was nervous because we had never really recorded properly before-- I didn't know if he was going to make fun of how I play bass. There were all these levels of pseudo-anxiety but, by the end of the first day, we were cracking jokes. I would hang out with him any day. We even showed him that Nine Inch Nails "shreds" thing where they put awful music over the "March of the Pigs" video and he loved it. He e-mailed to Trent.

KB: We got comfortable enough that, at one point, we took some paper and tape and made it look like his U2 Grammy was ours.

Listen to "Heart in Your Heartbreak" from Belong:

Heart in Your Heartbreak


Pitchfork:
As an indie band, did you have any reservations about working with these guys who are known for so many big, major label records?

KB: Not really. Some of my favorite records came out on RCA or Columbia, and to denigrate those albums to a certain level is kind of ignorant. The Flaming Lips did their best work on a major label. Look at David Bowie, Leonard Cohen, the Ramones. It's easy to pick apart the failings of that major label world, but some great records have been a result of it.

AN: Just because we're indie, it doesn't mean we can't do this or that. That whole idea doesn't exist as much as it used to.

KB: Yeah, we equally romanticize the Pastels and the Smashing Pumpkins. It's not like the world has totally changed and all good music gets validated and covered-- there's still a lack of justice in pop and rock. But the fact that people can access smaller bands without the filter of them being signed or promoted or played on the radio is huge.

Pitchfork: Seeing your show a few times over the last few years, it seems like you were getting louder and louder-- and a lot of the guitars on this album have this massive sound. Is that directness something you wanted to focus on with this record?

KB: We wanted the songs to exist in an immediate and instinctual place. The album sounds like we're taking away what we were hiding behind before. Lyrically, the first record had a lot of remembered experiences that I was looking back on and trying to make more clever, which can sound contrived. I like the idea of lyrics that don't get beyond themselves but catch you and make an impression. I think that's more emotionally compelling.

Pitchfork: I did notice that there were less puns on this record than the last one.

KB: [laughs] There are still a few dick jokes, though. You know, like "Come Saturday". I try to be careful now because my grandmother's discovered how this all works-- she prints out the Internet. I said the f-word once in an interview and she was like, "I didn't show that one to grandpa."

PW: And our dads discovered the travelogue videos.

AN: Oh yeah! I bought a Travel Pussy in Germany. Do you know what that is?

Pitchfork: I do not.

PW: It's in vending machines at rest stops. It's basically a bag that says "water here" on it. So we filled it up and it started oozing. The video we made with it is set to "Girlfriend" by Matthew Sweet. [laughs]

Watch the "Travel Pussy" tour video:

AN: And when we went to Sweden for the first time we took a bunch of video footage and set it to this song we made called "Gothenburg Handshake".

Pitchfork: I'm kinda scared to ask-- what's a "Gothenburg Handshake"?

AN: Well, instead of shaking someone's hand, you shake...

PW: ... their crotch.

Pitchfork: Did that happen to you?

AN: It happened to Kip.

KB: [half-singing] "You shook much more than my hand-- Gothenburg Handshake."

Watch the "Gothenburg Handshake" video:

Pitchfork: You recently wrote on Twitter: "We just turned down a lot of $$,$$ because we don't want to be in TV ads. Not self righteous, just rather be unknown than known for that." Can you expound on that?

KB: I shouldn't have said that because one day we'll be on a commercial and someone will be like, "Oh wow, you compromised your original values!" If someone else had said that, I probably would've rolled my eyes at them. The thing is no one really knows our music and suddenly for everyone to hear it for the first time all at once on TV-- I don't know. I just want people to hear our music as music first.

At the same time, there are a lot of bands that are better and cooler than us that have done it. It allows a lot of artists to make music on their own terms. Ultimately, the song's a song, no matter the context. It's a way for bands to make money and bands deserve to make money. But we do want our songs to be in TV shows and movies. I've always wanted to be a part of popular culture like that.

PW: If they wanted to use our music on "The Hills" I'd be so into it. [laughs]

KB: Please, "Gossip Girl", put us on your show!

AN: Our music was in Another Gay Sequel, which stars Perez Hilton.

Pitchfork: Actually, I was playing Belong at the office and one of my co-workers thought it was the Clueless soundtrack.

AN: That is the biggest compliment.

KB: Clueless is one of the best movies ever.

PW: And the soundtrack is amazing. There's a Velocity Girl song on it from their first EP, which came out on Slumberland.

AN: You just made our day.
