This week’s round-up of Slicing Up Eyeballs headlines includes items about the Beastie Boys’ Adam Yauch, The Stone Roses, Public Image Ltd., Mission of Burma, Soundgarden, Depeche Mode, Cocteau Twins’ Elizabeth Fraser, The Cure’s Porl Thompson and Bob Mould — plus our latest Auto Reverse mixtape.

Beastie Boys co-founder Adam Yauch — known by his on-stage and behind-the-lens alter egos MCA and Nathanial Hörnblowér, respectively — lost a nearly 3-year-old battle with this morning, passing away in a New York hospital and leaving a deep musical and activist legacy that spanned the 1980s, ’90s and 2000s.

With The Stone Roses’ reunion now just over a month away — the tour currently is slated to open June 8 in Barcelona — we thought we’d use this installment of Vintage Video to take a look back at the band in its prime, via the classic home video ‘Blackpool Live,’ which you can see in full right here.

With Public Image Ltd.’s first new album in 20 years — ‘This Is PiL’ — arriving at the end of this month, we can now bring you the record’s cover art as well as details of the U.K. deluxe edition, which will include a bonus DVD featuring John Lydon and Co.’s full performance at a London club last month.

This month’s tape includes brand-new recordings from Public Image Ltd. and X’s John Doe and Exene Cervenka, plus favorites both new and old from Depeche Mode, Southern Death Cult, Sad Lovers and Giants, My Bloody Valentine and New Order, and a few covers from the likes of School of Seven Bells and Grant-Lee Phillips.

We brought you news in late March of ‘Unsound,’ the upcoming fifth studio album — and fourth post-reunion effort — from Boston post-punk legends Mission of Burma. Now the band has revealed the cover art and full tracklist for the collection, which is due out July 10 on Fire Records.
