At the dawn of a new decade, it’s a safe guess to state the future arenas will be dominate by acts such as the Kings of Leon, a band whose success has been steadily been built upon its Southern roots foundations to it’s modern day U2-like status. A new Kings of Leon album will only enforce their status, and as I’ve been given to find out a few movements ago, it seems like the new…
A pesky leak forced the eccentric NYC quintet to move their latest album’s digital release date from mid-September to August 3rd, which for you couch potatoes is today. As a small sample of what’s to be expected from “Root for Ruin”, Les Savy Fav’s fifth full length if you wanna count them, I present you with “Let’s Get Out of Here”, a densely guitar packed, full stomp anthem. Yeah, typical Les Savy material, which is…
Alright, this is one of those disturbing videos you run into, and immediately after hitting the play button through out the end of it all you’re left with that oh so familiar what-the-fuck feeling. One thing’s for sure with Ratatat’s latest video for “Drugs” – it’s damn well suggestive. Ratatat’s latest album “LP4” is out now on XL. DrugsRATATAT | MySpace Music Videos
Seems like Panda Bear isn’t the only Animal Collective to release a solo album this year, seeing how Avey Tare is prepping his solo debut, titled “Down There”, for an autumn release. His press release states that Avey’s “favorite animals are the otter and crocodile [and] the latter has played a big role in his newest record,” which kinda explains the cover art pictured above. I’ve got not idea how his new album will sound…
Last year I was introduced to Clubfeet, a very promising three-piece electro band from Australia which marvelously fused ’80s disco pop with modern day synth pop. Today, I learned that Clubfeet is releasing their debut full length “Gold on Gold”. Upon further digging, I found “Count Your Lovers”, a sweet and soothing french disco song, beautifully arranged in hypnotic keys and uplifting synth lines.
I know I’m a bit late on the bandwagon with this one, but better late than never. I’ve been meaning to post Cut Copy’s latest new song off the Aussies’ upcoming new album for a week now, since it got released as a free digital download at the band’s website, alas forgetfulness bested me. For those of you who’ve yet to listen to this enchanting song, point your eager clicks to the download link below…
Off the band’s upcoming highly anticipated new album, “Halcyon Digest”, Deerhunter’s new 7″ single “Revival” is available as of today for free download on the album’s mini-site – enter password tapereel. A few weeks ago fans were instructed to print and paste up posters with the new album in the home towns, and in return they’d be rewarded with access to the new single, but apparently anyone can do it. Besides the the single title…
Arcade Fire’s third full length studio album, “Suburbs”, is just a few weeks away from its release, as such we’ve been granted to sample the whole album in snippets, 30 seconds for each of the 16 tracks to be more exact. You can stream the Suburbs preview on the player right below, while an awesome collage of the eight Suburbs covers can be found at the Arcade Fire website. (I’m not very sure which of…
Highland Park sextet Fol Chen (yeah, the raccoon dudes from SXSW) have been kind enough to fix everybody up with a free remix EP for “In Ruins”, the feature track off the band’s new record “Part II: The New December” out this month. The EP features remixes from Baths, Keepaway, Kárin Tatoyan and Julian Wass. The Baths remix is one to note, especially. DOWNLOAD the entire In Ruins remix EP. Fol Chen’s new album Part…
