Fresh Links: the music breakfast of champions

Here they are. Today's links:

· Someone pretending to be Billy Corgan writes a letter: "My old fans won't get it. They will complain that the sound is too dense, too severe, too, yes, overbearing. But the New Generation is the one I'm speaking to, the one that needs to know that My Chemical Romance and Panic! At the Disco couldn't exist without me." This is not actually Corgan, but a hoax.

· In other Pumpkins news, Corgan is looking for the girls who made the existence of My Chemical Romance possible.

· Morrissey either believes Madonna's adoptive son is in real danger or he's making a point about her fondness for wearing fur.

· Avril Lavigne covering Coldplay!?! Be still my beating heart! Oh wait. I was thinking of the Smiths reuniting.

· Why is Rilo Kiley sexing it up? Jenny Lewis explains.

· Slash speaks about Chinese Democracy.
