Return To Cookie Mountain

I had the pleasure of having TV On The Radio's new album "Return To Cookie Mountain" in my little paws for a couple of weeks, and it is blowing my mind. After multiple listens the record just continues to get better and better, they've just continued to step it up with every release. So in anticipation of it's July 6th release, I've posted the first three tracks from the album. Enjoy

Listen to "Playhouses"
Listen to "I Was A Lover"
Listen to "Province"

Envelopes - Demon

Time to check out Envelopes album "Demons". Beware this record is highly addictive, I actually spent an entire day listening to it over and over and over..... 16 times to be exact. Enough talk.... time to listen

It Is The Law
Isabel And Leonard.

 

More Summer Music: The Spinto Band

I'm in love! The new album "Nice And Nicely Done" by The Spinto Band is the perfect summer soundtrack. Ten tracks of pure pop bliss, these guys are definitly one's to watch out for. You heard it here first. (If you didn't then you heard it somewhere else first)






Here are some tracks to jam out to:

Crack The Whip
Oh Mandy

Check out their website

 

Phoenix - It's Never Been Like That

I was a huge fan of Phoenix's first album, but their last album "Alphabetical" was a little hit and miss. So needless to say I was skeptical about their newest record "It's Never Been Like That". I love being surprised by an album and this one definitly caught me a little off guard. "It's Never Been Like That" kicks ass and is a great addition to the summer soundtrack!





Here's a couple of tracks to whet your palatte!

Napolean Says
Consolation Prizes

 

Sound Team In Vancouver!

Vancouverite fav's The SOUND Team will be taking Vancouver by storm on June 19th at the Red Room. This is going to be a show that you should not miss, especially if you want to say you say you saw these guys before all the scenesters at their next sold out show at richards.


Why not listen to some tracks to get you in the mood:

Movie Monster
Your Eyes Are Liars
Don't Turn Away
Fastest Man Alive
