Wow, it's like the second coming of Cajun Dance Party . Again a London-based quintet with an obligatory token girl member, only this time around they've managed to graduate from highschool... Although on closer inspection it appears as if this second coming of Cajun Dance Party actually released their debut single before the first coming did, and in fact, they probably arrived far earlier than CDP altogether, but for whatever reason I completely missed it, and as such, I'm only just discovering them now. So I guess that means they're back to being plain old Captain then. [...]

Okay, fast and dirty this week. New music as always, but not so many new bands. Comments from two weeks ago were correct, I fell for a fake Death Cab file. Song wasn't half bad though, was it? Anyway, new DCFC this week, and more Weezer. I haven't really been a fan of Weezer's stuff, but Troublemaker really rocks. Wallis Bird is new to me, but I dig her stuff already. Not sure what to think of the new Captain single yet- they were one of my favorites from 2006, but this one hasn't caught on with me [...]
Captain are a band from London, who formed in early 2005. They classify their music as 'Indie / Surf / Melodramatic Pop', getting their musical influences from groups such as the Smashing Pumpkins, The Beach Boys and The Cure. I first tuned into this band in 2006 when they released the track 'Frontline' from the album "This [...]
captain - keep an open mind [ link 2 ] [my fellow blogger mate xolondon is a big fan of this band and i never really understood it until now. not only are the london quintet back with new material, but their first single sounds very much like prefab sprout (and that is a GOOD thing!). now that i've exposed my age, get over the shock and go out and discover/enjoy these two wonderful acts this week.] http://feeds.feedburner.com/Wo ngiesMusicWorld
Above pic via nadissistic This mixtape turned out a lot weirder than I initially thought. Originally James' idea, pawned off on me (because he's super busy), we decided to do a mix based around the first song you hear upon waking up. To be completely random and honest, I surprised everyone yesterday by asking them to send me the first song of the day they listened to and also to provide a brief description on how or why they listened to this [...]
File The Captains under the category of bands from another country whose music I'd surely not be listening to if it were being peddled by a comparable band from the US (My Chemical Romance mixed with Drake Bell perhaps). Some of their songs come across as ready for tweenie TV show fame, some as Bling Kong-esque cheer-a-longs, some as guitar based pop-rock burners, and some as prime candidates for silly drunken karaoke. It feels like one third of this record I've already heard from some French band obsessed with dramatic flair... or were they from Turkey? [...]
We got a whole lot of stuff to offer you today and since we didn't do a We got mail last week, here's a massive post of two weeks worth of music that trickled its way into our mailbox. First up are these tracks that our friend Eric that does the amazing La New Shit blog sent us. They're made by a russian dj named Hot Einstein . Hot Einstein - Go Back (Radio Edit) (zShare) Ciara - 1 2 Step (Hot Einstein [...]
It always feels great when I can find a band that just hits me for their sound. That's the case with Captain. Hailing from UK, they have recently participated in the Mojo Magazine's Sgt Pepper's tribute CD covering "A Day In Life". What a great combination of vocals, keys and great melodies that don't get out of your mind. Do I need more? Well, I guess it's time to hit the sack now... That's it for tonight. + Glorious + Frontline + A Day In Life + Official [...]

GET EXCITED! NEW MIX BY NONE OTHER THAN THE CAPTAIN & SHARK. This is the Captain's lastest mix, and as you already know it's killer. This is great promo material, Captain & Shark did this partly because of the next Cut and T&B party: Saturday May 5th at Studio B in Brooklyn, NYC: Masters of The Universe [...]
Dear friends, I wish I could hang up a "Gone Fishing" sign 'cause in a sense, that's what I'm doing right now. Please bear with me and enjoy these covers. 1. The elegant Captain commands from the dunes. Mojo magazine decided to get a bunch of bands to cover Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band in its entirety and Captain had the nerve to do A Day in the Life . We [...]
Just in time (well four months early, actually) for the 40th anniversary of the Fab Four's groundbreaking Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, MOJO's March issue devotes somewhere around 20 pages to the album -- including its creation, the frenzy...
