Bob Reuter Documentary In the Works
Got word last week from our friends at Big Muddy Records that there's a documentary on long-time local musician Bob Reuter in the works. A trailer (naturally, in black-and-white) is viewable here.
Interview: Living Things Vocalist/Guitarist Lillian Berlin
For as much flak as native sons the Living Things receive from St. Louis for perceived criticisms - and the crap they take from everyone else for doing things like burning money onstage - the reality of the band is far less controversial. In fact, Lillian Berlin (née Jason Rothman) was (gasp) a nice, affable interviewee when I spoke to him last fall.

Mic Becker Living Things!
He spent much of 2008 - eight months, to be exact - at Hansa Tonstudios in Berlin, Germany, with the rest of the band working on their latest album, Habeas Corpus. (This explains why he hadn't had much time to visit the Lou, even though his mom still lives in the St. Charles area.) Corpus achieves what Black Rebel Motorcycle Club has always aspired to be: It's a moody, stormy record with flashes of synthpunk ("Oxygen") and distortion-laden fuzz explosions ("Let It Rain").
And contrary to what many people claim, Berlin doesn't hate his hometown at all: During our conversation, he waxes ecstatic about Vintage Vinyl, The Point (105.7 FM) and laughs that he has a soft spot for food from The Pasta House. He also revealed that Chuck Berry's late keyboardist, Johnnie Johnson - who lived two blocks away from his mom - was set to contribute to Living Things' last album, Ahead of the Lions.
"Right before he died, I think it was three years ago now, we were set up in a house in St. Louis recording part of our last record," Berlin recalls via phone. "And we were going to have him come by and play piano. He was all booked - and then he died. It would have been his last performance on tape, it would have been great to have had."
Catch the band at Vintage Vinyl this afternoon at 4 p.m., and again later tonight at Off Broadway. The latter show starts at 9 p.m.; Nothing Still opens. After the jump, more chatting with Berlin and a bonus MP3 from his Chicago-era Y2K band, Atrixo.
