[Listen] – #MusicMonday – 20 Songs Of The Week – June 28th
If you’re unaware of what Music Monday is, it’s a Twitter recommendation system where users of Twitter share their favourite music, artists, genres, etc in order to not only find new music themselves but help others find new music too. Using the hashtag (#) followed by “MusicMonday” you can easily find new music posted by the thousands of people making recommendations each week.
Every #MusicMonday I upload a playlist of 20 songs that I’ve been listening to (new and old) over the past week and hopefully you’ll enjoy some of them. Want me to check someone out? Let me know at that Contact Us thinger up there.

[Discover/Listen/Download] – Manhattan – [Indie/Rock]
These guys from Dublin, Ireland have only been around for a few months at most and even though you can tell it’s still early days by the recording quality of a couple of the songs, one thing you can also tell is that they have something. There’s something there.
I can’t quite put my finger on it just yet, maybe it’s the fret-wank guitar solos, or Robbie McCarthy’s voice-breaking vocals, or the Friendly Fire’s kinda groove they’ve got going on. Maybe it’s all of the above, who knows, but their cover of The Knife’s “We Share Our Mother’s Health” caught me completely off guard, especially after having listened to their three other songs which don’t sound similar, with “Shame” reminding me of early Oasis demos like “Fade Away” and “Listen Up”, raw and unbridled.
You be the judge, and keep in mind that these songs are still demos, but impressive demos nonetheless.
