Paul Weller - Have You Made Up Your Mind

RATATAT - MIRANDO

Gregor Samsa - Jeroen Van Aken


In their third full-length album in seven years, Gregor Samsa takes a new approach to composition, both in process and instrumentation. The result is Rest ; nine pieces composed over e-mail during the course of nine months by key members in New York, Chicago, Boston, DC and Richmond, VA.
In Rest, Gregor Samsa expand on their affinity for minimal, classical instrumentation mixed with mangled and manipulated sound through integration of new instruments such as the celesta, clarinet, classical voice and vibraphone. Along with these new sounds, guitar has been almost entirely replaced by piano, whose parts were recorded on a rare Bösendorfer once owned by Philip Glass.

Weezer - Pork and Beans


The official video for "Pork and Beans" from Weezer starring some familiar YouTube faces. New Self-Titled "Red Album" out June 3rd, 2008!

Wild Beasts -'The Devil's Crayon


The Devil's Crayon sees Tom Fleming swap vocals duties with usual lead singer Hayden Thorpe. With its refrain of "We are so many tiny pieces" and Tom's yearning delivery, the song shimmers in widescreen around a sense of location, melody and wonder at the scale of things. The Devil's Crayon sounds like the theme song to a new kind of very English, (probably un-filmable) road movie.

We Are Scientists - Chick Lit



The Song

"Chick Lit tells the story of a young girl named Agatha who one day, while collecting fire wood to blend into an immune-system boosting power shake, encounters a magic well. She knows the well is magic because it smells like Axe, and so she nervously calls three desperate wishes into its still black depths. There isn't a lot of room for storytelling in a three minute pop song, unless you're Bright Eyes, so that's where the story ends, but we definitely intend to pick it up in another song somewhere down the line. For now, try to revel in the promise of this initial set-up."

The Video

"We made a video. In it, we play pirates who contemplate a change in career when they learn that they could double their salaries by driving a semi truck."

Spiritualized - Soul On Fire


Official Video of Jason Pierce and the northern lights in Iceland.

Justice - Stress
