The mp3's available here have been found elsewhere and are on this site with the purpose of letting you experience an artist before you buy the album. So please do the most excellent thing and buy the album. Physical music soothes the soul.
Peace.

First Listen: Music from The Great Gatsby
As someone who still regularly listens to the Moulin Rouge soundtrack, the prospect of a soundtrack to The Great Gatsby — which to me stands as one of the greatest novels of all time — is utterly enticing. What we … Continue reading
Hear This Song Today: 53 by March of the Real Fly
That band that have so much fun that they’ve been found to namedrop themselves, March of the Real Fly, are back with another killer. Recent lineup changes mean Tim Fitz has joined the band, that guy who’s battling Lena Dunham … Continue reading
First Listen: One Way Trigger by The Strokes
The Strokes’ timeline is an interesting one. Is This It (2001) is one of the best albums of the century. Room On Fire (2003) has Reptilia, so its existence is justified. The same can be said about First Impressions of … Continue reading

Adding the raw intensity of Antidotes to Total Life Forever’s surprising maturity, Foals are back with a new track that’s sure to be divisive. Inhaler shouts in parts but also strides with an urban groove, and while evoking Tom Morello … Continue reading
First Listen: New Animal Collective Tracks, Honeycomb and Gotham

First Listen: Take A Walk by Passion Pit
It’s been a while, but Passion Pit have finally released a new track. Titled ‘Take A Walk,’ it has the worst pre-chorus you’ll ever hear, but still manages to pack a proper punch and exude their classic catchier-than-lice sound. Their … Continue reading
Hear This Band Today: Light Giant
Here’s a new band about whom very little is known. I think the vocalist might be from Parades (update: since confirmed, see the wise man’s comment below), an excellent group who dropped an excellent record in 2010 and sent Sputnik … Continue reading

Update: March of the Real Fly – EP
If you’re anything like me, you might currently be wondering if you were too hasty to order FIFA 12 without reacquainting yourself with Pro Evolution Soccer 2012. Similarly, you may also be enjoying some delicious pop tunes. And, if we … Continue reading
Hear This Song Today: Scars by Phantom
If you were disappointed when you realised Architecture In Helsinki had no link with the ‘world’s northernmost urban area among those with a population of over one million people,’ then perhaps Phantom, who actually hail from there, will pique your interest. Having … Continue reading
