*[FMQB.com] Dave Grohl has revealed the Foo Fighters will start recording a new studio album in September, with producer Butch Vig behind the board.

Janie Hendrix, President and CEO of Experience Hendrix, stated, "We're delighted that ScatterTunes is offering Hendrix fans an enhanced 'experience' in connection with these V-Albums.

*A "lost" benefit album has appeared online, featuring songs from Rage Against The Machine, Beastie Boys and more. Pitchfork reports that the compilation, titled Exiled In The Land Of The Free, was originally slated for release in 1995 to raise funds for the case of Leonard Peltier, whose supporters believe was wrongly convicted of the 1975 murder of two FBI agents. The collection includes a live version of Rage's "Wake Up," a demo from Josh Homme of the track "If Only," Zack De La Rocha teaming with Corrosion of Conformity and much more.
