Listen Before You Buy

You know what’s enjoyable?  Yelling.  Yelling is enjoyable, especially when you’re yelling along with one of your favourite songs in a room full of sweaty guys trying to “accidentally” grope the only girl in the joint. I’ve done that on occasion; yelling along with a giantess of a song, not the gropey part.  Although I [...]

Apparently they’re gonna just release a new song every week. Even though I’ve been posting new stuff from Yuck on a fairly regular basis lately I still haven’t heard a bad song yet and this one’s up there too. It’s been around since the start of the year and the few blogs who had it [...]

You can now listen to the whole album for free right here. By now you may already know that Arcade Fire’s new album “The Suburbs” has leaked ahead of it’s August 2nd/3rd release date. By now you may already have a copy of it, or have listened to it and have heard this song already. [...]

You can now listen to the whole album for free right here. Two more brand new songs from their upcoming third album “The Suburbs”. This time it looks like they were passed around to various radio stations because a bunch of them started tweeting about it this morning/afternoon.  We’ve already heard snippets of “Ready To [...]

New music from London’s Klaxons has been a long time coming.  Their electro-rave-rock debut album “Myths Of The Near Future” not only won them a Mercury Prize, but a number two album spot and great reviews almost across the board. That was three years ago, and now today they’ve given the world its first taste [...]

Chances are that you’ve heard of the Twilight books, maybe you’ve even read them.  Maybe you’ve seen the movies and if you have, you’ll know that regardless of how good or bad you think the movie is, the soundtrack is out of this fucking world. So many amazing acts have written new songs exclusively for [...]

Kele’s debut solo album “The Boxer” is coming out on June 21st and he’s really amping up publicity for it now.  A few days ago he released two brand new songs in “Rise” and “Walk Tall” and today he uploaded a new remix of his first song “Tenderoni”. Listen to the original below as well [...]

Kele Okereke (Bloc Party frontman) announced a few weeks back that he’d be releasing his debut solo album “The Boxer” on June 21st via Wichita Recordings/Polydor, and Glassnote. Tonight he premiered the lead single from that album “Tenderoni” on The Zane Lowe show on BBC 1, and you can hear it below. The tracklisting for [...]

The Strokes haven’t released an album for almost 4 years now, their last being “First Impressions Of Earth” in 2006, but they’ve been speaking about that followup and playing live this summer at various festivals.  I wasn’t a huge fan of “First Impressions Of Earth” with only a few standout tracks, but I really liked [...]
