Your favourite band sucks

 

Mine don’t. Now, this it what I call good, (fairly) new music:

Vampire Weekend – Kids Don’t Stand A Chance & Oxford Comma
(Best. Band. Ever. At least these days. Just saw them in Brussels.)

Soko – I’ll kill her
(Scary. Seems someone didn’t take “it’s not you, it’s me” for an answer)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25AsfkriHQc

Sam Sparrow – Black and Gold
(Slick. Bryan Ferry cross the Mersey.)

The Tellers – More
(Great Belgian indie. I know (!) What’s more, it’s on Fifa 08.)

Kings of Leon – Taper Jean Girl
(That song, from that party, that I had forgotten – but just reheard)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6MBgQWq6cfw&feature=related

Kate Nash – Pumpkin Soup
(Better than Kate Bush. At least, I imagine, in hand-to-hand combat.)

Hercules & Love Affair – Time Will
(Yes, that is Anthony of Anthony and the Johnsons you hear.)

Hot Chip – One Pure Thought
(New album. Same, same. Why change?)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eAev1ZjE3dI&feature=user

MGMT – Time To Pretend
(Very promising to be yet another Brooklyn band. So sorry I just missed their Brussels concert.)

Anyone Else But You – Ellen Page/Michael Cera
(Still can’t get over Juno. Who can?)
