The Pink Logs are infatuated with the Twilight books and are counting down the minutes until the release of the movie this Friday. After numerous attempts at getting into the movie, security had to ban The Logs from the movie set altogether. But, if The Logs were to be included in the release, this is a glimpse of what the promotional materials would have looked like.

Natalie Walker - Now or Never (Dorado)

Natalie Walker first burst upon the scene as vocalist for Daughter Darling, a trip-hop collective which also included the Philadelphia-based brother team of producers Travis and Stephen Vogelman. The resulting album, Sweet Shadows, earned a nomination for "Best CD of 2003" at the Philly Music Awards. In 2006 Natalie opted to go the solo route and released her debut, Urban Angel, to some rapturous reviews: "Be it Natalie Walker's drowsy vocals or the elegant song constructions, this album drifts by like whispers and drugs you with a hypnotic undercurrent," said Billboard, while at the time A&R Worldwide noted, "An artist like Natalie Walker comes along only once in a great while." The Philadelphia Weekly, meanwhile, was short and sweet in its review: "Simply marvelous!" The album also struck a chord with film/TV music supervisors: Sofia Coppola used a Thievery Corporation remix of "Quicksand" in Marie Antoinette, while other songs found their way onto "Ugly Betty" and "Grey's Anatomy." Now Natalie has returned with her highly anticipated second album, With You, which came out on August 19 and is an elegant collection of hypnotic soundscapes highlighted by the ethereal vocals of the blue-eyed soulstress.

KIWI HEROES BANG BANG ECHE TOP SONG CHART: Coming out of nowhere to claim the top spot on the Mediaguide Alternative Specialty Song chart is New Zealand five-piece Bang Bang Eche, who parlayed a buzz-building series of performances at CMJ in New York City last month to a No.1 showing for "4 on the Floor," a frenetic number in the vein of the Rapture and the Faint. All the more impressive, the song comes from their eponymous, self-released EP (which itself charts on the Album end at No.6). The teenaged quintet from Christchurch drew some rave reviews during the conference, with KEXP picking "4 on the Floor" as "Song of the Day" and later deeming the group's performance one of the five best of the entire conference; for more info, surf on over to www.myspace.com/bangbangeche. Not much other movement to report on the Song side this week, as last week's pole sitter, Bloc Party, fell to No.2 with "One Month Off"...but they were doubtless relieved by the 2-1 move on the Album end for Intimacy (Atlantic). The only other debut in the Top 10 on the Song chart this week belongs to New York indie rockers Longwave, who bow at No.7 with "No Direction," helping full-length Secrets are Sinister (Original Signal) to a No.10 spot on the Album index. Currently bubbling under on the Song chart are Cold War Kids at No.13 with "I've Seen Enough" (Downtown), rap-rockers Hollywood Undead right behind at No.14 with "Undead (Out the Way)" (A&M/Octone) and California lads Roll the Tanks at No.17 with "Police Me" (Intelligent Noise). Longtime holdovers Eagles of Death Metal, Little Joy, the Decemberists and Glasvegas continue to stay strong on the Song side, occupying the 3-6 positions with "Wannabe in L.A.," "Keep Me in Mind," "Valerie Plame" and "Geraldine," respectively.
