Fresh Rock Music

New Singles
1. Ladytron - Destroy Everything You Touch (Hot Chip Remix)
Hot Chip's remix for Liverpool outfit Ladytron's "Destroy Everything You Touch", from a forthcoming UK single, gives the song some exotic color without taking its eyes off of the dancefloor. The original, pulled from excellent album The Witching Hour to become Pitchfork's #28 single of 2005, was shivery, gale-force synthpop.

2. Chromatics - I'm On Fire

3. Shout Out Louds - Impossible


4. Serj Tankian - Empty Walls [Youtube Video]

5. Jimmy Eat World - Big Casino

6. Richard Hawley – Serious [Youtube Video]

7. Annuals - Dry Clothes [Youtube Video]

8. Blood Red Shoes – I Wish I Was Someone Better [Youtube Video]

9. Timbaland & OneRepublic – Apologize [Youtube Video]

10. Velvet Revolver - The Last Fight [Youtube Video]
A very boring song from a very boring rock band, they're decided to fuck my ears like Celine Dion and James Blunt did before with the song.

Hurricane Jane by Black Kids was the hottest new single of previous week.

Radiohead - In Rainbows Review

The MM Review
Rating: 8.0

Without doubt, In Rainbows will include in many the best of 2007 lists, because it came in right time with a right revolution that we can download the whole record paying how much we want to pay. Thom Yorke's first solo record came last year, The Eraser. It was quite far away from being an apparent record. Thanks to other members Greenwoods, Ed O'Brien, Phil Selway, and our depressed electronic boy Tom Yorke, this has been almost flawless record for the upcoming winter and autumn. There are many key tracks, and acustic sweets in, In Rainbows, you want to think about rains, rainbows, clouds and cold. Yep, this ain't a guitar driven, upbeat rock record. There is one thing missing In Rainbows that it sounds too heavy many times. However, don't expect too much from a band who created records like The Bends and Ok Computer at past. Etheral music in front of Yorke's painfull vocal sounds adorable at times. Once you've discovered the hypnotic opener 15 step, the following noisier piece Bodysnatchers, theatrical tune All I Need, there is no way out you'll love this record. Despite its nothing's new concept, everything is okey, nothing is spotty, this is the best Radiohead since OK Computer.

MM picks: 15 Step, All I need, Jigsaw Falling into Place

You can download the tunes from The Official In Rainbows

Beach Boys - Pet Sounds

There's a cool thing about this post, i don't know exactly the reason, though. For a while, i was listening Pet Sounds in my dreams, like it's saying that you should post something about the record. After seeing this weird dream more than three times, i thought that i should post something magical about this magical record. Most of you know Beach Boys, and hell yes they're some kind legendary, coolly band. Connection between nostalgic sounds and orchestral vocals are almost perfect in Pet Sounds. It's one of those rare records can be marked as one of the most original concept records. These four tracks are the standout tracks for those readers who haven't met them yet. Pets are always cool, so Beach Boys too.

The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds
The Beach Boys - Hang On To Your Ego (MM pick!)
The Beach Boys - That's Not Me (MM pick!)
The Beach Boys - God Only Knows

Radiohead - In Rainbows

As you've known, Radiohead released In Rainbows on October 10th. Most of the songs on In Rainbows have been played live by the band for some time, and versions of them are widely available on the Internet.

This is just a band, and there are many of them out there who wait for being discovered. Babbler me, i'll write something makes sense about the new record. It sounds great, just try to grab some tunes from MM. I'm not a pirate, though.

Tracklist:
1. 15 Step (MM Pick!)
2. Bodysnatchers
3. Nude
4. Weird Fishes_Arpeggi
5. All I Need (MM Pick!)
