*69: Anna Matronic

A tip of the hat to The Music Slut for leading us to an interview with Scissor Sister Anna Matronic in this month's Venus Magazine.

What are some of the Scissor Sisters’ favorite movies?
My favorite movie of all time is Beyond the Valley of the Dolls, which I’ve hipped all the Sisters to. Some of our collective favorites are 2001: A Space Odyssey, Gremlins, Female Trouble, and any movie involving Muppets.


I am always interested to know what musicians are listening to. What’s on rotation on the bus, on your iPod? And what are some of your favorite new artists?
My iPod is a mishmash, in true Scissor Sisters style. Lately I’ve been listening to Silver Apples, a psych-rock band from the 1960s, but I’ve got everything from Talking Heads and Richard Hell to Otis Redding and Nina Simone to Miles Davis and Eric Dolphy. Some of the new children I’m listening to are the Knife from Sweden, and I know I’m among a great throng of people really digging on Gnarls Barkley.

You can read more of the interview at the link below, but to get the whole shebang you'll have to trudge on down to the newstand.
