New Neil Young Album Is Finished
Filmmaker Jonathan Demme, who filmed the award-winning documentary 'Neil Young: Heart of Gold,' writes in an e-mail to Harp Magazine, "Neil just finished writing and recording – with no warning – a new album called 'Living With War.' It all happened in three days." How rock ‘n ‘roll is that?

Demme continues, "It is a brilliant electric assault, accompanied by a 100-voice choir, on Bush and the war in Iraq…Truly mind blowing. Will be in stores soon."

Details are pretty scarce, but the featured track, titled "Impeach the President," features a rap with Bush’s voice set to the choir chanting “flip/flop” and the like.

UPDATE: Cyndy at Mouse Musings pointed me to these following sites. From the Living With War site, I found Down With Tyranny, written by the man who used to be the president of Reprise Record Company and has add'l Neil Young info. That's where I found Justice Through Music, who is launching a new campaign called Harmony Vids to motivate artists, bands, filmmakers and others to create a whole series of new protest videos. Watch George Bush lies by the Violent Femmes, Counting Bodies by A Perfect Circle and more.
