GROUPLOVE


Grouplove are cool. Their music is grunge like Cage The Elephant, but on a far more mellow level, easy to get into with each song as good as the last.

Already doing well across the Americas I can't see it being long until their success crosses the Atlantic. Fingers crossed anyway.

Here are some tracks you should check out:

The Shins: Port Of Morrow



Ahead of its release, the fourth album from The Shins 'Port Of Morrow', is streaming on Drowned In Sound http://snapme.ca/story/2012/03/14/stream-shins-new-album


Its quite good. Nice easy listen and something I think I could really get into and play alot. Up to now I haven't really heard much of their back catalogue, much to the dismay of my Fiancee, but I think I am going to have to catch up if 'Port Of Morrow' is anything to go by.

Jack White: Love Interuption



Two weeks ago I got my first car. Im 22 and have held a licence for 2 years now, but finally bit the bullet and forked out for the insurance. 'Love Interuption' by Jack White was one of the first song I heard while driving it and now I can't help but turn it up everytime it plays on the radio.

Jack White - Love interuption

The song, featuring vocals from Ruby Amanfu, is released of his forthcoming album 'Blunderbuss' which is set for release March 20th.

Desire: Under Your Spell


'I don't eat, i don't sleep, i do nothing but think of you'

This line has be repeating over and over in my head ever since I first heard this song at the weekend.

Desire - Under Your Spell

The song is from the soundtrack to 'Drive', a film I wanted to see, but after hearing this, need to see.

From hearing the original I decided to check out a few remixes and there are some awesome ones out there! It seems this song is has limitless workability.

The Smiths Vs Lana Del Rey


Over the years bedroom producers have mixed and sampled great songs and often ruined them, taking away what made them so great. This however... is amazing.



'This Charming Video Game' is a mix of The Smiths 'This Charming Man' and Lana Del Rey's 'Video Games'. It is almost as if the songs were wrote for one another, Morrissey's haunting vocals beautifully complimenting the drawn strings and piano.

Cant. Stop. Pressing. Repeat.
