Honestly, i want to spread nice words about all artists which work hard to release these nice songs. However, there are some songs that sound quite better than the others. Gulag Orkestar was a great record even if it's not a perfect one. The Flying Club Cup is the upcoming second album by Zach Condon, aka Beirut, and for me it's not anything much better than Gulag Orkestar. If you consider a relistening on tracks like Prenzlauerberg, Postcards from Italy and Scenic World, you'll see the results of a downfall from stunning multi-instrumentalist Zach Condon. I want you to remember the great songs on this new record, and they're "In The Mausoluem", "In The Mausoluem", "Cherbourg" and the title song, having you a trip between melancholic moments. Despite The Flying Club Cup's unsurprising and lazy air, Beirut fans will be happy once again.

Beirut - Cherbourg (MM Pick!)
Beirut - Postcards From Italy (From Gulag Orkestar)

Beirut - Lon Gisland Ep

Melodic indie rockers Band of Horses returned with a new song, and it asks Is There a Ghost? I think the new record will be great, because if you liked the new song at your first listen, then it can't be that good. You should love the song by every new spin. I'm loving "Is There a Ghost", that broken voice is something you want to hear on every season. Everything All The Time was one of the favorite records in 2006. We'll wait and see the new Band Of Horses record that called Cease to Begin.

Band Of Horses - Is There a Ghost (New Track!)
Band Of Horses - Our Swords (MM Pick!)
Band Of Horses - Wicked Gil

I know that i'm very picky when it comes to music, but it's really hard finding good new music. We're losing the art, or the art is not enough for people now. I dream myself in a place where all precious artists stay, take me to there, and i don't want to see this finish anymore.

Single Flashback!
Morrissey - The More You Ignore Me, the Closer I Get
"The More You Ignore Me, the Closer I Get" was a single by Morrissey released in February 1994. It was taken from the then-unreleased Vauxhall and I album and was the first Morrissey single to be produced by Steve Lillywhite. Reaching number 8 in the UK Singles Chart, the single became Morrissey first top ten hit since "Interesting Drug" in 1989. It is also Morrissey's only charting single in the United States Billboard Hot 100.

Imitosis by Andrew Bird was the best single!

Some European music can be really good for trips. Manu Chao's music is one of them which heavily influenced by English punk acts like the Clash. However, Manu Chao was different, helped begin the Latin Alternative movement, way back in the '80s. His Clandestino was the best he's ever recorded, and La Radiolina is the upcoming album will be released on 4 September 2007. La Radiolina's been a fun, shiny and clever record which is the best record after Clandestino (1998).

My Bloody Valentine - Soon

Peacebone by Animal Collective was the best song last week.

While there are a lot of songs that could be described as soundtracking a nonexistent film, this actually feels like it, strings and a handclap beat creating a pitch-perfect atmosphere to the end of a romantic movie. Raz Ohara's various vocal appearances throughout are nice additions but the highlight is "Hold On," where his perfectly in-the-moment R&B style contrasts the squelching bass and nervous but righteous groove to a 'T'.

Apparat - Hailin From The Edge
Apparat - Birds (MM pick!)

Indie Rock
Actually, i like Barely Legal much more than the two The Strokes song, but these are wonderful too. Especially, 'The Modern Age' sounds so hot!

Strokes - Trying Your Luck
Strokes - The Modern Age

Post-Punk
For me, it's one of the most interesting punk band at the center of it all was vocalist Mark E. Smith. You'll love or hate this.

The Fall - Get A Hotel
The Fall - Draygo's Guilt

Alternative Dance
The two song come from New Order's live record Disorderly(1981). This live Lp consists of the most depressive New Order works.

New Order - Senses
New Order - Denial

Alternative Pop
Ok, it's a good choice when the closing song is a good, striking, a sad ass song.

Nick Cave - Henry Lee
Nick Cave - Mercy Seat

After 2000's poorly received Blender, the Georgia-based act reemerged mid-decade with a flurry of releases, including the '04 studio album Youth. The following that two-disc live album continued. Afterwords is the forthcoming seventh studio album by Atlanta-based rock band Collective Soul, is set to be released on August 28, 2007. Is it better than self-titled Collective Soul record, you decide. But i liked the new ultra commercial single 'Hollywood'. Nice art work, by the way.

Collective Soul - Hollywood
Collective Soul - New Vibration
