This week’s round-up of Slicing Up Eyeballs headlines includes items about Killing Joke, Midge Ure, New Order, Dinosaur Jr, Blondie, The Stone Roses, The Ocean Blue and more — plus the debut of Slicing Up Eyeballs as the new host of Sirius XM’s ‘Dark Wave.’

For this week’s “120 Minutes” Rewind, we revisit the show’s “120 X-Ray” segment, a short spotlight on a given band — in this case, a Kevin Seal-hosted piece on Siouxsie and the Banshees that aired in 1988 following the release of the band’s Peepshow album.

Slicing Up Eyeballs is going on vacation, taking Mrs. Eyeballs on a 10th anniversary trip to an exotic foreign land. While we won’t be abandoning our vigil entirely, the next week will see only sporadic posting, with regular features mixed with periodic news round-ups.

Midge Ure today announced a rare North American solo tour that’s set to take place this coming January — featuring, “so far,” 12 dates confirmed across the U.S. and a single Canadian concert —that he says “is to pave the way for the possibility of bringing Ultravox over later in the year.”

Blondie performed a 45-minute concert in New York City today that was webcast as part of the YouTube Presents series — and the video is still up at YouTube, so feel free to relieve the experience right here. As an added bonus, the band released three brand-new studio tracks that are free for the downloading (or streaming).

The Stone Roses reunion will roll into 2013 as the band this week confirmed it will join the five-date, traveling Future Music Festival in Australia next March, performing concerts in Brisbane, Perth, Sydney and Melbourne along with The Prodigy, Dizzee Rascal, Bloc Party and, uh, that “Gangnam Style” guy.

Morrissey continued his American media tour Tuesday night, following up last week’s appearance on “Late Night With Jimmy Fallon” with a highly entertaining visit to “The Colbert Report,” during which Moz withstood ribbing from Stephen Colbert on topics such as the British monarchy, vegetarianism and, of course, The Smiths.
