Jaill - Everybody's hip
Het is uptempo. Het is rauw. Maar ook weer niet.. Lady Oorbijter hier vind het toch wel heel erg lekker klinken. Dus m/v psycho pop met een gruizige garage meets punk attitude. Album: That's how we burn. Vlammende plaat van een opvallende band uit Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
Jaill hooks the ears with insistent, upbeat pop and twanged-up garage elements which grow deliciously darker with further investigation.

Weezer - Memories
Memories zingt al weer een weekje of 3 rond op het web, maar mag hier niet ontbreken. Album dat half september uitkomt heet Hurley.
Waiting for the new album Hurley. This first song from the album is very promising. Looks like Weezer is back on nineties track.

Freedom of death - This crowded room
Niet dat ik zo naar het einde verlang ofzo, maar dit nummer is wel een heel bijzonder. Doet een beetje aan de verrassing denken waarmee Coldplay jaren terug voor het eerst mijn oren binnenvloog. Melodieus, prachtig, gelaagd. Freedom of death met de gelijknamige prachtige debuut EP komt uit Ontario, Canada.
..Fernandez was classically trained as a pianist and has been a DJ for over a decade, while Sway has been a driving force as a vocalist and songwriter behind various bands, musically Freedom Or Death’s sound is eclectic, yet their approach to lyrics is clear. “We posed the question, are we going to write lyrics that resonate with a mass amount of people or are we going to write music from our heart?” Sway asks. “We decided to write things that had a truth to it. The lyrics are a really huge part, they’re not always the last part, but for me if there’s no lyrics for a song, the song stops.”..

Lloyd Cole - Writers Retreat
Tijd voor een oude held: Lloyd Cole. In de jaren tachtig een van de wave/alternative sensaties. Schrijft nog steeds mooie liedjes, getuige Writers Retreat.
Still play his songs from the eighties: Lloyd Cole. He doesn't need a writers retreat. Lovely song, new vid.

Ray Lamontagne and the Pariahs- Are we really through?
Ray Lamontagne. De verlegen liedjessmid. In Paradiso ging vorig jaar na elk nummer het licht uit, zo verlegen.. Een gevoelige man die erg mooie country & soul zingt. Wat heeft hij een mooi nieuw album afgeleverd. En wat een band die Pariahs. Album: God Willin and the creek don't rise.
Country & Soul merge with Ray Lamontagne. What a great album: God Willin' and the creek don't rise.
Bonustracks from this great new album:

Mohini Geisweiller - Milk Teeth
Lekker zweverig synthy nummer van Mohini Geisweiller. Ze zit ook in SEX IN DALLAS. Maar laat je er niet door afleiden. Raar maar bijzonder catchy laid back nummer.
Mohini Geisweiller plays also in SEX IN DALLAS. French born electro slackers, they have replaced guitars by samples, a 4 track recorder by a laptop, and instead of staying in bed all day, they stay upall day and night to hang out in bars and clubs not to miss any input. The last years they have sucked up a lot of input, that is now
outpouring on their longplayer Around the War.

Manic Street Preachers - (It's Not War) Just The End Of Love
Manic Street Preachers komt met het 10e studioalbum Postcards From a Young Man. Deze single (It's Not War) Just The End Of Love doet qua sound veel denken aan de nummers van de nineties albums Everything must go en This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours.
New single (It's Not War) Just The End Of Love from 10th album Postcards From a Young Man. Sounds like the songs on nineties albums Everything must go en This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours.

OMD - If You Want It
Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, kortweg OMD. Je hield ervan of je haatte het in de jaren tachtig. Hoewel, ik kies voor de tussenweg: Enola Gay was een goed nummer. Het duo is weer terug met If you want it. Omdat eighties electropop weer mag.
Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, or short OMD. Band with lots of hits in the eighties, but I only want to mention Enola Gay. Wel, they're back with If You Want It. It still is elektro pop. Might work.

I Am Kloot - Proof
Proof, ja dat nummer kennen de I Am Kloot fans al. Maar er is een nieuwe versie die op het nieuwe album Sky At Night komt. Welke versie is beter? Oordeel zelf.
Proof, that's a familiair song for I Am Kloot fans. But the band decided to produce a new version for the upcoming album Sky At Night. Is it better or not? Give us your opinion.

Menomena - Five little rooms
Van het nieuwe album: Mines. Prachtig nummer dat mooi opbouwt en de spanning erin houdt. Eerst live en dan de studio versie. Je weet nooit wie er gaat zingen met deze band uit Portland, Oregon, USA. Ze kunnen het allemaal. Krankzinnige tekst.
indie rock band from Portland, Oregon, United States; made up of Brent Knopf, Justin Harris, and Danny Seim. All members of the band share singing duties and frequently swap instruments while recording. Crazy lyrics by the way.

A great new song off of the Futurebirds' new album "Hampton's Lullaby." Enjoy this song. You hear it first on Earbiter.

Diagram of the Heart - Dead Famous
Nieuwe Britse band die pop mengt met dance. Dead Famous is de debuutsingle. Vince Clarke zal - net als bij Hurts - minzaam knikken en zien dat het goed is.
Electronic pop-dance duo formed in London in 2009, consisting of Kye Sones and Anthony Gorry. Dead Famous is the band's debut single. Vince Clarke must be a fan, I´m sure. See the vid with European poledancer Manuela Carneiro.

Mikael Delta - She's a boy
Hoe breekbaar kan een nummer zijn? Mikael Delta heeft de EP Tech me away net gelanceerd. Hij zat in de band Stereo Nova. Met verrassende Anne Clarck synths in de tweede helft.
Fragile track. From former Stereo Nova member Mikael Delta from Greece. New EP is groovy techno: Tech me away. ‘A body to love, a body to fight’ in the lyrics of ‘She is a boy’ sung by Etten. Who is she? An oppressed body struggling with herself?
Mikael: We often full of guilt experience the separation from the body and we unconsciously punish it, totally unaware of its sacredness. However this song, in let’s say a second level, is commenting on the reconciliation of the female and male side. There, in this point of union, I think one is fulfilled and finds harmony.

Midnight Juggernauts - Michael's Deadline
Terug van vakantie! In de auto weer even flink wat MPs erdoorheen gejaagd. En dit nummer bleef maar op repeat. Lekkere track zeg. Het is een B-nummer van hun nieuwste album The Crystal Axis.
Driving two weeks in a car has a name: holiday. Thank God for my stereo. This track is a winner.

The Twilight Sad - The Wrong Car
The Twilight Sad brengt het album The Wrong Car uit en daarvan is de titeltrack de single. Deze band is stadion-fähig en kan groot worden. Zelf hebben ze die ambitie niet overigens.
The Wrong Car: new album from Scottish band The Twilight Sad. Band has great opportunities, but: 'We don't want to be festival headliners, we just want to make enough money that we can stay in a band and keep making music.'

School of Seven Bells - Windstorm
School of Seven Bells werd geformeerd door Benjamin Curtis van de nog altijd onderschatte band Secret Machines. Met tweelingzusjes Alejandra and Claudia Deheza heeft hij volgens mij een prachtige troef in handen. Mooi magisch liedje.
School of Seven Bells is a three-piece band formed by Benjamin Curtis of Secret Machines, together with twin sisters Alejandra and Claudia Deheza. Magic sound, good voice(s).

Wintersleep - Black Camera
Canadese band Wintersleep brengt vrij geruisloos zijn vierde plaat uit: New Inheritors. Melodieuze indierock die wel wat promotie verdient. Zoals de nieuwe single Black Camera.
Wintersleep released a new album in May: New Inheritors. A bit too quietly in my opinion, so it needs a little promotion. Check out the new vid Black Camera.
