This weekend we’ve had not one, not two but three awesome new remixes of Beyonce’s new album highlight ‘Drunk In Love’. First up, Kanye West revealed his reworking of the track on Valentine’s night – his first official new music since Yeezus. Kanye’s remix is allegedly getting its own video as well, which is expected…
For some reason today has seen three brilliant cover versions emerge from three of the most exciting new acts around. Scottish electro-pop trio CHVRCHES came out firing with a great cover of Arctic Monkeys’ AM track ‘Do I Wanna Know?‘ during an appearance on Australian radio. Check it out:
Klaxons raised a few eyebrows last week with the big reveal of their pop-tastic ‘comeback’ single ‘There Is No Other Time‘. As revealed last week, Klaxons have been working with a range of different producers for their upcoming third album. ‘There Is No Other Time’ was produced by Radio 1 favourites Gorgon City, and other…
It would be a bit of an exaggeration to suggest Klaxons have been sorely missed since their second album Surfing The Void came out a full four years ago. Their re-imagining of 90’s rave-pop culture was starting to wear a bit thin by 2010, but it’s still good news to have them back on the…
Not too sure what to make of this, as it is a far cry from Metronomy’s usual electro-trickery. ‘Love Letters’ is the title track from Joe Mount’s upcoming new Metronomy album, and its a pretty crazy 70’s-pop track complete with mariachi horns. It’s the second track taken from Love Letters following the lead single ‘I’m…
Manchester’s Elbow announced the title of their new album last week, and now they’ve revealed the first taster in the shape of a studio video featuring two new songs. The album is called The Take Off And Landing Of Everything, and the new tracks revealed today are called ‘Fly Boy Blue’ and ‘Lunette’. Watch the…
Jack White’s side-project The Dead Weather, which also includes Alison Mosshart, Dean Fertita and Jack Lawrence, are releasing two-track singles throughout this year as they build up to the release of their new album in 2015. The first installment kicked off last month with the release of the storming ‘Open Up (That’s Enough)’, and today…
Scottish post-rock legends Mogwai are back with their monstrous new album Rave Tapes next week (released: 21 Jan). Read my 4/5 review of it here. Before that, though, they’ve made the whole thing available to stream online. They premiered the stream over on The Guardian this morning, where Stuart Braithwaite also provided an introduction to…
Psych-rock veterans The Flaming Lips have today released a cover version of The Beatles’ classic ‘Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds’, which you can stream in full below. The band are gearing up for a New Years Eve gig at Aspen’s ‘Belly Up’ in Colorado tonight, and have apparently promised to perform a few Beatles/John…
With their new album So Long, See You Tomorrow out on 3 February, Bombay Bicycle Club are wasting no time in getting their new material ‘out there’. Hot on the heels of impressive lead single ‘Carry Me’ comes the jaunty and very Avalanches-esque ‘It’s Alright Now’, which was just debuted on Huw Stephens’ Radio 1…
