Just a little post about some albums I've been listening to recently, bit of a mixed sort and definitely older. These are some tracks I've never posted before I do believe.


Kanye West - Homecoming feat. Chris Martin

I'm a sucker for a good pop song every now and then, this pulled me in when it was released, I'm surprised i never mentioned it before. Now with his latest album on the verge of release and the surprisingly good sung song "Love Lockdown" out and about, what better time than to revisit the last of Kanye's bear cover albums? This song is a personal favourite of mine, it does work really well, especially Chris Martin's chorus.


Beck - Girl

The 2003 album Guero was what first got me into Beck, I just pretty much loved it and this song, Girl is definitely a highlight, if not THE highlight of the album. From the Gameboy sampling beginning this song is great.

ffffffffinally, some old Panic At The Disco
I actually really liked their first album, bit of a guilty pleasure, but at the end of the day musically the album was really good, yeah it's a bit emo and all abit over the top with its long titles but I just really enjoyed when i first got it. Whatever you say won't disuade me, they had balls to change direction recently and it paid off but seriously I wouldn't have minded a second album of similar stuff

Panic at the Disco - The Only Difference Between Martydom and Suicide is Press Coverage

Keane just seem to be getting forever better with each album, I liked them when they started, the first album was a good, slow & melodic LP and the 2nd just seemed to better that, they gained even more popularity to the dismay of NME. I can't help liking them. There is just something about this band that screams a likability, yes it was funny that the lead singer was on drugs, he looks so innocent!, but musically these guys are geniuses. Their latest effort "Perfect Symmetry" is actually quite good. On first listen I really like it, are they the only modern band whose follow-ups better their previous works?

Keane - Spiralling
First single and immeadiate highlight of the album, being the opener

Also for those who don't remember their sophomore album,
Keane - Nothing In My Way
It's definitely my favourite song off that album, Under the Iron Sea

 

bastards!

the blogger police

I had a post deleted due to thew copyright reasons apparently. I'm rather annoyed they didn't actually contact me and they went straight throught to blogger about it. As stated on the right hand side, I will remove any track if it bothers people, they don't have to go and get rid of my intellectual musings goddamit!

Well anyway I think I can guess what the offending track was now, so that is an artist I won't post anymore of, (if you want to guess, it begins with a 'Run' and ends with a 'C')

I think it shouldn't've been offending copyright holders, think I would have piqued alot of interest for that song again with the 100+ people who viewed my blog recently. I'm going to continue to blog and stick it to the man,so there.

Depeche Mode - People Are People

The Clash - Train in Vain

Willy Mason - We Can Be Strong
