MP3 Jena Malone (More Actress Music!)

Since we already posted ScarJo’s Tom Waits obsession, why don’t we talk about Jena Malone’s Bloodstains?

Oh, that came out wrong.

I am referring to Jena Malone and Her Bloodstains, the band from Saved! and Donnie Darko star, Jena Malone. Unlike Johansson, Malone’s musical endeavors seem less focused and career-minded, instead her 2007 recordings under the Jena Malone and Her Bloodstains moniker amounted to little more than a few shows (in Los Angeles and New York, naturally) and a limited-edition 7” on the great Social Registry label. Her recordings are unpolished and emotionally raw, a welcome change of pace from what you’d expect from a Hollywood star.

Malone’s new band is called The Shoe, so, yeah, good luck Googling that.

Next up: Dogstar!
Just kidding. Like I could compress my D-Star love into one single blog post. Please.
