So, Lily Allen is taking a kiddie break, but the new Maria Timm sounds a little Allen-esque. Can't find a video, think the song is called "Why don't you run along?".

Been rockin':

City and Colour
Great Lake Swimmers
American Nightmare
Customs

Noone likes to take a test, sometimes you know more is less

It was a really long wait for the new Editors single, can't get into it:

Remix of the last few weeks and moderate hype song in Belgium was legally downloadable for free for one day, too bad you missed it. Everyone loves this, works pretty much anywhere:

vampire weekend meets feist meets aaliyah meets joanna newsom meets ...

great track, excellent vocal performance.

not a fan of all the songs yet, and the bass players voice kinda puts me off sometimes.
Big fan of the rhythmic guitar playing in this song, reminds me of explosions in the sky a lot.
