...Yeah Yeah Yeah Song” Dir. Traktor Is J-horror scraping the bottom of the barrel or is it just a new Flaming Lips video? “The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song” opens with three attractive Japanese girls posing in a dimly-lit subterranean room and brandishing knives and saws in front of a businessman before proceeding to tape hamburgers all over his body, then releasing him into a dusty street filled with hungry sumo-wrestler types. It’s bizarre and a little disturbing, but what do you expect from a band whose live...
Alanoud glances at her diamond-encrusted Chanel J12 watch. The truth is, today's schedule is a little ambitious. We've already "done" Wafi Mall, which opened in 1991 and since then has virtually doubled in size, with a new subterranean "suq shopping experience" planned. We've stopped by the chic Emirates Towers Boulevard to mooch around Villa Moda, the designer emporium that also has stores in Kuwait, Qatar and Bombay. And Alanoud has taken me to the Village Mall, near her family home in the ritzy suburb Jumeirah, where the latest must-have accessory is a clutch bag made...
...originals. The difference between Beck’s “Earthquake Weather” and remix legend Mario C’s annoyingly minimalist take on it borders on nonexistence. Diplo’s “Go It Alone” starts out promisingly, with subterranean thumps straight outta the Caribbean and dubplate guitars that jangle in from another century.

Beastie Boy Ad-Rock simply proves his overwhelming irrelevance by adding a piercing synth sample and eye-rolling...
...wonders of the palace are fairly ceaseless. There's a massive subterranean layer where wines were stored and baths taken. Just off the duke's study are two alcoves: the Temple of the Muses and the Chapel of Forgiveness. (Between his battlefield deeds and the generally agreed-upon fact that Federico was complicit in his half-brother's rubout, there was much to absolve.) I sat on the floor in both rooms and absorbed the feel of history, whistling to hear the little echoes and gently rubbing my hands over the stone floors. Maybe I was being a tad presumptuous...
...beneath a quaint stone farmhouse, is Scotland's Secret Bunker: the nuclear-proof headquarters for Scottish ministers, had the cold war got hot. Descend a gray metal staircase and down a 150-m, tungsten-reinforced tunnel to reach the bunker's red blastproof doors. From 1968 to 1992 these subterranean redoubts were manned by soldiers from the Royal Observer Corps; on guard today are uniformed mannequins, their lifelessness adding an apocalyptic chill to the air. It's like a musty James Bond film inside. Sixties teletypewriters, radar blips showing "hostile Soviet sorties" and air-raid target maps of the world...
