"Made of Stone" is a single from The Stone Roses' eponymous debut album. Jackson Pollock is referenced (along with his work No. 5, 1948) in the B-side "Going Down" in the line "Passion looks like a painting, Jackson Pollock's No. 5".
Pollock's paintings influenced the cover art that guitaristJohn Squire did for the album, as well as the band's musical instruments.
The band made their début on national British TV by performing this song on BBC's cultural show The Late Show in September 1989. The power went out 60 seconds into the song and Ian Brown walked off shouting "amateurs...amateurs...we're wasting our time here lads".
The song was used during some of the road trip scenes in the 1997 American film, Heaven or Vegas.
Also in the PSP 2005 videogame World Tour Soccer
The B-side "Guernica" (the title references Pablo Picasso's Guernica) is "Made of Stone" in reverse, but with unrelated lyrics.
Made of Stone is the first play by Leo Butler, first performed as part of the Young Writers' Festival at the Royal Court in London in 2000.
Butler called the play, which is named after the Stone Roses' 1989 song of the same title, his 'love letter' to Sheffield. Butler says that the starting point for any of his plays is an image here he claimed it was that of two brothers standing by their father's grave. The play centres on three brothers coming to terms with their father's death. Time Out praised it as a corrosive examination of manhood, capturing a regional way of living, once bound by heavy industry, manual labour and close, interlocking friendships, now brought to its knees.
The most famous scene in the play is an Oedipus complex scene where two teenagers have role play sex and the young man unbeknownst to the woman asks her to call him by his father's name while he calls her by his mother's. What's on in London praised it as one of the most excruciating scenes of teenage sex ever staged.
Evanescence is the self-titled third studio album by American rock band Evanescence, which was released on October 7, 2011 on Wind-up Records. The band began writing the album in June 2009. Its release was delayed several times; on February 22, 2010, the band entered the studio with producer Steve Lillywhite but later stopped working with him because he "wasn't the right fit". At the time the album was scheduled for an August or September 2010 release, but Lee later announced that Evanescence had suspended recording to write more material. On April 11, 2011, the band returned to the studio with producer Nick Raskulinecz.
According to Lee, the band brought influences from Björk, Depeche Mode, Massive Attack, MGMT and Portishead to the album. Evanescence's songs contain sounds and influences characteristic of nu metal, hard rock and electro. Although the album received generally-positive reviews from music critics, who praised Lee's vocals and its innovative sound, some noted a similarity to the band's older material. Evanescence debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 chart with 127,000 copies sold in its first week, and topped four other Billboard charts; Rock Albums, Digital Albums, Alternative Albums and Hard Rock Albums. The album was successful worldwide, appearing on the charts of over twenty countries. The band promoted Evanescence by premiering songs online on a number of websites and appearing on several television shows.
