Soundgarden return.

Chris Cornell has said on Twitter that Soundgarden will grace us with their greatness again after 12 years of sitting on the shelf. Not much details yet but will keep my ear to the ground on your behalf. Good times ahead.

Faithless are back

Faithless return with a stormer of a tune after 3 years on the low. This goes right back to early faithless, catchy loop, a kicking beat and Maxi Jazz rapping in dark and silky tones.

It's a real thumper and you would have to be strapped down not to dance to it.  You can download the track called SUN TO ME free from their website (nice of 'em). Here is the link

Giveamanakick change of venue in Galway.

Those mighty noise merchants GAMAK are winding down, and will be sadly missed. They brought us anger, power and noise levels you don't often hear outside of Armageddon. They are on a fairwell tour and Galway is their second last stop. However there has been a change of venue for this show. This is swiped from their myspace page.

Directions (on how to play)

Proper shiny MGMT remix.

I like a good remix, and no I don’t mean someone dropping a four on the floor beat on whatever pop song is clogging up the air waves. I like a bit of a twist, a reworking if you will. I stumbled across this gem the other day and thought I would share it with you.  A good bit of thought went into the gentle tweaking of MGMT by Boy Meets Club. Enjoy.

De-Timbaland-ized Chris Cornell!

When Chris Cornell said he was going to do a pop/r’n’b album with timber face I cringed at the possibility of a complete hash of an album. This turned into a full shudder fest when it was released and I heard it.
I have recently stumbled across this and it makes the mess that was the faithful collaboration all the more damning. This is one of the tracks Never Far Away form the album stripped down of all the squeaks and beeps and filtered muck and remade in a much more palatable form. The man behind the magic is Jordan Zadorozny. In a way it makes things worse as we could have had an album like this instead of what we ended up with.
