Friendly Fires - New Album coming 16th May

Ever since seeing these guys setting the crowd on fire at Roskilde Festival in 2009 I have been a fan. Great fun fun fun party music. Excellent stuff. I highly recommend getting your hands on their first album.



But to get to the point. There's a new album coming shortly. The first track "Live those Days Tonight" has been released. Not the best Friendly Fires track ever but there is still hope. I expect a kick ass party album to be released on 16th May.

London from New York



This is Theophilus London. He has a new EP out, but I just stumbled upon one of his older tracks. It sounds familiar. Did I just forget listening to this last year?

I think the kids are in trouble...



It should be needless to explain the awesomeness of The National. Instead, let me introduce Kristen Schaal, who first made me laugh in Flight of the Conchords and now she has done it again in this funny video.

Trophy Wife

These guys are fantastic. Dreamy, alternative, indie pop stuff (or something like that).

Trophy Wife - Microlite by trophywifeband

After hearing the track Microlite last year I have eagerly been waiting for more stuff and now it's here and they don't disappoint. Not sure if there's an album coming anytime soon but two new tracks are available for download. D!

The Kills



I'm quite excited about The Kills' new album. If you haven't already checked out their old stuff, do it man! They rock!

Being Liam Gallagher

"I heard that fucking Radiohead record and I just go, 'What?!'... Them writing a song about a fucking tree? Give me a fucking break! A thousand year old tree? Go fuck yourself! You'd have thought he'd have written a song about a modern tree or one that was planted last week. You know what I mean?" (from The QUIETUS)

Moooonkey!



New stuff from the Monkeys. Pretty cool old skool sounding track. At times it reminds me of the Doors and......other stuff. Unfortunately, it's not immidiately clear from their web site when we can expect a new album from these guys. D!

It's just the way now!



Man I love this track by Wolf Gang. Unbelievably, it was a free download for a while. However, I notice that he has come to his senses and is trying to make a living here. Buy, buy, buy...

UPDATE! I stand corrected. Free download of this awesome track here at Atlantic Records.

An album entitled Suego Faults is destined for release mid 2011.

However, a rather sweet Wolf Gang cover of Radioheads Pyramid Song is available as a free download here. Check, check, check it out.
