- Start Wearing Purple - Gogol Bordello
- Forever and Day - Her Space Holiday
- Black Horse and the Cherry Tree - KT Tunstall
- Destroy everything you touch - Ladytron
- Wagon Wheel - Old Crow Medicine Show
- Tear You Apart - She Wants Revenge
From Jean's Mash-Up Train, we have some new contenders as well:
- Alla vill till Darins Himmel - Calle Hansson
- I Love New England - Lenlow
Then a cool little culture collision I picked up scanning the web:
- Hip Hop Violin - Paul Dateh & Inka one
I've also been previewing a couple of albums:
- Ramonetures
- In Rainbows - Radiohead
The first is a cover album of Ramones tunes, done in the style of surf guitar. It's not too bad, but I've been spoiled listening to Takeshi Terauchi, who is a Japanese surf guitar god, so they have a steep hill to climb.
The second album is Radiohead's latest, and their first without being under contract to a major label. It's 'free', in that they let you decide how much to pay for it. I'm previewing before I give them any money, as I am generally annoyed with Thom Yorke's policy of only allowing sales of complete albums since he feels that allowing purchase of individual tracks destroys the artistic integrity of his music. Rii-ight. Anyway, so far there are only a couple of songs I'd pay for, so I'll probably delete this one in a day or two.
