Screaming like a Van She

Sydney electropop quartet Van She has a foot in the past, but also the future.


The four lads from Sydney, who met after each answered an ad in a local music magazine, have a knack for creating decidedly modern music with a decidedly '80s sound.



Audio: Hear the new song Changes from Van She��

Audio: Also, listen to Strangers ��

Van She is the latest act to come out of Modular Records, the music stable responsible for Cut Copy and the Presets, both of whom have done incredibly well this year.


The band released its debut album, V, this month.


The album was recorded in London with Jim Abbiss (Massive Attack, Arctic Monkeys) and is an impressive marriage of guitar pop and down and dirty electronica, with touches of psychedelia and prog rock.

Martha Stewart - Stewart Plays Down Newman Cancer Reports


Lifestyle queen MARTHA STEWART has dismissed talk of actor PAUL NEWMAN's deteriorating health, claiming he is "full of vim and vigor".

A Los Angeles Times article at the beginning of the week (beg09Jun08) reported the 83-year-old star had been diagnosed with terminal lung cancer, prompting a media frenzy about Newman's health.

The actor and his representatives have been playing down cancer reports since the beginning of the year (08), when a U.S. tabloid claimed Newman had just six months to live - but his spokesman insists the star is "doing fine".

And Stewart, who sparked fresh fears for Newman this week when she posted a photo of the star on her blog looking frail and gaunt, is doing her best to play down speculation about her pal.

Writing on her website, she says: "He is still full of vim and vigor, he is still Cool Hand Luke to me, and of course, my Butch Cassidy!"

She said: "We weren't expecting twins. So it did shock us, and we jumped to six children quickly. But we like a challenge."

The Wanted actress, who is due to give birth within the next couple of weeks, is determined to make sure the other kids don't feel left out when their new siblings arrive.

She added to Entertainment Weekly magazine: "They're old enough to feel included to change diapers themselves, to feed bottles themselves, like if I pump into a bottle. We're trying to find ways where it can be a fun group thing.
