Dead Snares New CD and Free Download of "City Sparks"

Independent record label popantipop has announced plans to release the anxiously awaited full-length Dead Snares debut album Speak The Language on October 26th, 2010. Dead Snares is the artistic creation of Jeffrey Cain from the band Remy Zero. The album is a swirling surge of hypnotic beats with lyrics that are both seeking and foreboding. Moreover, they give a free mp3 to download the record 'City Sparks' from the new album. This song is very interesting that you want to listen more and more to discover.

Piccadilly Palare mp3 by Morrissey from new Bona Drag (Remastered Reissue)

One of the most complicated British musicians Morrissey's remastered reissue of 'Bona Drag' starts with a favourite song of mine which is 'Piccadilly Palare'. It is funny that I hear a woman in the underground, saying to her daughter 'Piccadilly', and the little girl finds the area name very funny, keep laughing to her mother. This song is not as funny as this little story but bitter.

Morrissey chose to write about a subject unusual in pop music, namely male prostitution around the Piccadilly area of London. The title of the song refers to cant slang language polari, first used by male prostitutes in the 19th century and was then taken up by homosexuals in the 1960s to disguise sexual predilections which were illegal in the UK until 1967.
