Hype is a dirty word..



STREAM: I Heart Hiroshima - Candy Cut

Brisbane kids I Heart Hiroshima have a new EP out called 'Cut In Colour', and with it a new single entitled 'Candy Cut'. which is a damn cool song. It's got that jangly indie rock n roll sound that is impossible not to groove to and some catchy male on female vocal work. Check it at their MySpace page.





VIDEO: MSTRKRFT - Work On You

MSTRKRFT made Wolfmother sound pretty good and have also remixed DFA 1979 and Metric to make them dancefloor fillers so they must be doing something right. Their new album ' The Looks' has just been released along with the
follow up video to the very erm, sticky video for 'Easy Love'. The video for 'Work On You' is an anime feast for the eyes with Transformer-looking robots duking it out, brandishing light saber-esque weapons featuring a killer robot disco scene with some pretty white dance moves.


Whats the deal with Lily Allen? I mean everyone is going nuts over her, other bloggers and Pitchfork for one, however she sucks. Her voice is cringe worthy with that very unnattractive cockney twist, and her songs aren't anything to write home about. And Sam Champion? They aren't THAT good surely? Blog hype goes feral I think....

Darn! The MSTRKRFT video is gone! I hope I see them live soon.
PS-I think the video for 'Smile' is pretty good. That however is about the most likable thing about her. She has some trippy songs on that album that are a bit cringe worthy
