What's new?

True Ukrainian Black Metal.



Drudkh is from the Ukraine and mix black metal with folk elements in a sort of meta ulver mixture. I consider them to be the best black metal band going. It's elegant, powerful, raw and well played in ways that most black metal bands don't even understand. Most of their songs are close to 10 minutes, but this track is fairly short, yet representative. It's off a limited to 1000 Hand numbered single called Estrangement.

Drudkh - Only the Wind Remembers My Name.


Shinichi Osawa.



Remixing Plaid this well takes some talent.

Plaid - White Dreams (Shinichi Osawa Rmx)


SHHHHHHH!



This is NOT the new J--Z song!

and finally:

Frank Musik Speaks and you should listen.



Love this guy.......even though his myspace makes your eyes bleed.

Living for the hammer!

Hard-Fi



Hard-Fi are back with a new album. If you didn't catch the last one it's the Clash reborn with some subtle Paul Weller for great measure. One of the best British bands in recent years in my humble opinion. Though I haven't spent a lot of time with the new one what I've heard has been pleasing to these ears.

Hard-Fi - Suburban Knights

And now, some unofficial bootleg remixes!
Aqua-Ski vs Hard-Fi - Living for the Weekend (Aqua ski remix)
Unkown - Hard-Fi - Hard to beat (breaks mix)


Gallhammer



Wow. Amebix shirts are sexy. Don't you think? Gallhammer is a 3 piece bomb of hate straight from Japan. If you like hellhammer than you'll know the drill. Dirty, primitive, and raw early black metal with some sludge songs as well.

They have a long biography on their MySpace page.

Gallhammer - Speed of blood.

I like daags.

New digitalism Video. Sorry for all the youtube goodness lately.
I'll have a proper post tomorrow.

In tribute to the colder weather.

Mmmmm. German necrotic destruction!

Dethklok puts you on blast.

FANSONG.

You hunched and blinded mutants
living in chat rooms

You masturbate on the sheets
your mothers clean for you

You have lined my pockets
overflowed with gold

You're living with your parents
and you're 35 years old

You're a bunch of banks
that I'd like to rob

You're my online cash transaction
you're my future stocks

Transfer you like money
to a Swiss account

Spend you on an impulse
and zero you all out

Hate

Pervert and Proud.

Designer Drugs.



Can't stop listening to this track. All weekend long! Some new faces from philly. It's french touchish, but has a great driving melody that puts me in mind of a really cheesy power metal track.

Designer Drugs - FUCK YEAH!


Ladytron.



Some new remixes from their recent 12 inch out last week. The everything you touch remix is great. It sounds like it's behind the beat and slightly off, but it works well.

International Dateline - Simian Mobile Disco Remix

Destroy Everything You Touch (Vector Lovers Remix)




Belladonnakillz



Nice little melody here. Most of their songs are messy drum and bass with lots of noise and melody. It's an adventurous mix and works a lot of the time. They seem to be strongest doing fun songs like this first track though which is off their album from last year.

Belladonnakillz - Let U Go.

The second song is a remix off a 4 song EP that came out earlier this year featuring some fine Canadian artists. More representative.

Belladonnakillz - Y Try Fight Life (rmx)

All I wanna do is...

Plaid for Lashes:



Bats for Lashes - What's A Girl to Do (Plaid Remix)

A very killer plaid remix of this epic song. I believe it's on the import single.



M.I.A. Vs the Clash



M.I.A. Feat. Bun B and Rich Boy - Paper Planes (remix)

Fun track. It's basically a recasting of Straight to Hell By the clash but the bass sound is a bit different. Lots of gun noises with a heavy dub feel. It sounds a lot like the Future Sounds of London with a proper Rap bit. Not that there is anything wrong with that.


I've been busy lately. Hopefully I can do some more updates this weekend.

Peas.

We are on this case.

No Front Teeth


Lithuania's take on the whole french touch scene. Good track here that sounds a lot like the big J, and totally worth the listen. I think they only have this one 12'inch up for grabs......and I doubt you'll find it around here anyway! I really like the metal style cover.

So here is a track for your head or your mixes:

No Front Teeth - Metal on Metal


Plastique De Reve




If you don't know who Plastique De Rêve is, you should. he's been doing electronic music since the 80s and crossed into just about every style there is. From EBM to Techno Pop, and from Ambient and Electro, he's been there.

This track is a great Electro funk track, but slightly more robotic than most. It's off his THE SOUNDS YOU HEAR 12inch on turbo records.

Do it!

MSTRKRFT Easy Love


Never enough MSTRKRFT in your life. Sessy video too for Easy Love.

Indie crunk.

This is gonna be huge.

30h!3

Greetings from planet Mars.

I guess use Melt Banana or Yellow Sub Machine Gun as a starting point. But not nearly as noise crazy or straight up punk. Loud, and distorted, brash and fun. The White Stripes if the White Stripes weren't obsessed with being quirky and low-fi tossers and grew up in london listening to Guitar Wolf?

You tell me.

Comanechi - My Favorite Shoes
Comanechi - Death of you (Gentlemen Drivers Remix)
