How about a little Midnight Madness?
Sæglopur EP by Sigur Rós (Review)
Compared to previous EPs like Svefn-G-Englar and Ný Batterí, Sæglopur’s b-sides are of a much subtler, more delicate bent.

Slowdive Miscellania
Millimetrik
The Drift by Scott Walker (Review)

The Silver Surfer Is Coming
My guess is that the Surfer will primarily — and sadly — be an excuse to justify a stupidly large CGI/special effects budget.
