"Random Access Memories"

Really looking forward to the Prodigy's next offering and going seeing this class live act in person again, hopefully before the end of the year.

Always good to have some good news on a Monday morning

Are they definitely releasing an album this year? They are unreal live.

Listened to The Strokes new effort, didn't make an impression on me at all. I'll probably give it another go in the future though.

The word is the next album from Liam and the boys will be due out right a the end of this year. But as someone who has followed the Prodigy since their early rave days, they usually release their albums later than scheduled so it could well be later!

And you are spot on, they are unreal live. Just as good now in their 40s as they were in their 20s.

I'm looking forward to seeing them at Creamfields this year. Legendary band.

They have released a tiny sample from a song called Get Lucky.

Here it is remixed into a 4 min video. Catchy!

"Mexican Monkey" song

The new Skint & Demoralised album came out yesterday, had a few listens and really enjoying it. A lot of passion throughout and a great mixture of singing and spoken word.

A weird thing about it on Twitter though, on 11th Feb the lead singer said "Tried releasing a single back in '09. Michael Jackson died. Try announcing a single in 2013. Bloody Pope resigns.", he got a reply on the same day from somebody saying "@MattAbbottSkint I'll have a pound on Maggie Thatcher dying on your album release day

". I think we need to be suspicious about Thatcher's death now!

Armin album out in May, few previews being dripped out over the last week.
Who's afraid of 138 sounds promising I think.

The 1minute or so snippet of "Get Lucky" by Daft Punk feat Pharrell Williams & Nile Rodgers is on that video website


simply amazing!

New albums from Thirteen Shots ,Dirtbox Disco and The Fall available soon

The Incredible magpie band, great album, playing Crooked ways festival at Pontefract park.

it's on iTunes now

Can't wait to pick up Haiku Salut's debut Tricolore and Iron & Wine's Ghost on Ghost.

Currently listening to Frank Turner's new album, Findlay's "Off & On" EP and have just found the new Airborne Toxic Event album streaming online [url=http://music.aol.com/new-releases-full-cds/spinner#/1HERE[/url. Really enjoying the Findlay EP, 4 songs for £1.99 and they're all brilliant. I like the Frank Turner album too, quite a few songs on there that have really impressed me.

I just found out that bizarrely My Bloody Valentine released a new album a few weeks back - mbv. Will have to download it tonight but has anyone listened to it?

Armins Album out tomorrow I believe.. not heard it all yet but here is a little clip of my addition to it. Let me know what u think https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=p ... w5ZL3QQinI

Yes, I've listened to it a few times but it hasn't really had that much of an effect on me. It's received a lot of critical acclaim, and sounds very much like MBV. I think I need to give it more time to sink in to make a conclusion - first impression is mostly good though.

Two albums out on Monday worth a look at
Neon Neon - Praxis Makes Perfect
Deerhunter - Monomania

Shamefully ordered them both on amazon but if I got them from another shop I would be spending over £10 more for them.

I've ordered the Deerhunter one too.

Just ordered the Savages - Silence Yourself. It has had some good reviews but also a lot of hype. Pitchfork gave it a very respectable score of 8.7 which for them is very high indeed.
Influences seem to be Joy Division and Siouxsie.

Need to download Armin Van Buuren & Pigeon Detectives latest ones me thinks

The new Deerhunter album is pretty good. I think I marginally prefer it to [iHalcyon Digest[/i, although some of the 'rawk' bits grate on me a tad.

Otherwise very disappointed with the new Yeah Yeah Yeahs album - if not for the odd gem it is easily their first truly bad record - much prefer the Strokes' new one in comparison, even if they aren't really cool anymore. I think the new Knife album is okay but its lack of accessibility could be a problem if you liked their earlier stuff.

Currently enjoying the new James Blake and Vampire Weekend releases - both very much still worthy of the past hype heaped upon them.
