Current tunes

It's been a while since i've blogged, maybe because the only reason i got a blog was for a assignment thats now over, but i enjoyed writing it so I'm going to try and keep it going.

I thought i would quickly talk about some of my new favorite songs from the last week or so.

First of all, brand new Mystery Jets. I'l be honest, my friend Stew made me listen to this, I'm not usually a fan, but their new track 'Flash a Hungry Smile' is a absolute tune! The Twickenham 5 piece have upper their game again for the third album after the success of 'Twenty one' and if this free download is anything to go by it could be one of the albums of the year.

Download it for free at www.mysteryjets.com/

One of my other favorite songs to come out in the last few weeks is 'This Orient' by Oxford's Foals. Their debut album 'Antidotes' made math rock cool and their new single doesn't stray to far from what made them good, it just sounds bigger, bolder and better. It sounds just like it should be in an episode from Skins, which is ironic considering the show gave the band their break.

The new single is released on the 3rd of May with the second album 'Total Life Forever coming
a week later.

Have a listen





And also have to quickly mention The Gaslight Anthem, i've always known about them, but never really took much notice. Got the album the other day and its brilliant, like the Killers, but with a bit more of an edge, a lot more rock n roll.
