I’m all for bands trying something different and not recording the same thing over and over again, but Coldplay’s ‘Midnight’ is an experiment gone too far. As a piece of ambient music it’s very involving and the mixture of Martin’s vocoder vocals and a mix of electronic instrumentation is actually quite listenable in a relaxing […]
The third cut from Embrace’s fifth album, ‘Follow You Home’ is their best song, in my opinion, in ages. Poppier than their more recent fair, the simple but catchy chorus quickly grabs you, thanks in main to the delivery of lead singer Danny McNamara and the driving drum beat. Great, and deserves to bring them […]
Manic Street Preachers have today launched the promo campaign for their upcoming 12th studio album Futurology with the release of lead single ‘Walk Me To The Bridge’. The single is a return to the Manics’ patented epic-rock sound, with layers of guitars and a rollicking chorus from James Dean Bradfield. Watch the video for it below: […]
Ciara is getting ready to release her new solo LP titled “Jackie”. The album will be out sometime this week. To help herself get some momentum going into the release, she released a new single from the album titled “Dance Like We’re Making Love” last week. The single is produced by Dr. Like and Cirkut. […]
Finally, the Canadian sisters Tegan and Sara have premiered a music video for “Boyfriend”- their latest single. The music video was first premiered on YouTube yesterday. The video became an instant hit as thousands of fans streamed it within a few hours of it being premiered. This is definitely great news for the Canadian sister […]
Kelly Clarkson stopped by ‘Ellen’ and performed her latest single “I Don’t Think About You”. This performance was a treat to watch as the American Idol superstar delivered mesmerizing live vocals. It was fire and I’m sure it’s going to help Kelly’s new album “Meaning of Life”. “I Don’t Think About You” from Kelly’s latest […]
The first cut from their upcoming third album is brilliant. Having fallen out of love with the band after their first album – their second passed me by – ‘There Is No Other Time’ brings the relationship back into focus. Though different from the likes of ‘Golden Skans’ and ‘It’s Not Over Yet’, it’s a […]
Here is a different song for me to cast my opinion on. On one hand this first cut from his fourth album is finally more different than what we’ve heard from Harris on his last few albums, after he decided the sound of his debut album was too multi-layered so should churn out the same […]
‘Every Little Word’ from Uzoechi Osisioma Emenike, better known as MNEK, has guested on several other songs recently but here is his first major solo offering and it’s a mixed bag. I love the electronic vibes that have shades of classic Daft Punk, the Beastie Boys breakdown and the funky retro RnB styles, but I’m […]
For a song that oscillates between slowed down versions of The Monkees’ ‘Daydream Believer’ and Womack and Womack’s ‘Teardrops’ it’s actually pretty good and his best solo offering so far. The mix of the two musical styles really suits the song and keeps your interest, and even though it’s as downbeat as you’d expect from […]
