Did you hear?

:: Paramore will release a new single and video for their song “Monster”, to be featured on the Transformers: Dark Of The Moon soundtrack. The song will be the first one recorded after the departure of band mates Josh and Zac Farro. [MTV]

:: Like father, like son — Billie Joe Armstrong’s 16-year old son, Joey Armstrong, has started his own punk band, Emily’s Army, with a bunch of his friends. And their tunes are genuinely pretty rockin’! Listen to their song “Broadcast This” and try not to hear Green Day’s obvious influence. [Spin]

:: Lenny Kravitz joins the cast of the anticipated big-screen adaptation of the book series The Hunger Games. [Billboard]

:: The “Leave Britney Alone!” guy is no longer leaving Britney alone. Chris Crocker has grown older, wiser and more critical of the pop star in the past few years. We almost didn’t recognize him without him weeping in front of a white blanket. [Vulture]

:: She’s already got the stamp of approval from the future King and Queen of England, so take a listen to Ellie Goulding’s Lights remixes EP. [Arjan Writes]
