I can't really describe the background better than this: The album began when Meloy—long fascinated by the British folk revival of the 1960s—found a copy of revered vocalist Anne Briggs 's 1966 EP, titled The Hazards of Love . Since there was no actual song with the album's title, he set out to write one, but was soon immersed in something much larger. The Hazards of Love tells the tale of a woman named Margaret who is ravaged by a shape-shifting animal; her lover, William; a forest [...]

It looks great, doesn't it? Up! is from Pixar who haven't made a bad film yet. I can't wait.
Little Boots is an English 'electronic' musician who uses synths etc. She has been hyped up for a while and will have a debut album maybe out this year? She also likes to do covers and post them on Youtube. Her latest is a piano rendition of Kid Cudi's hit Day N Nite. To be honest, I don't like her. First, I will disclose that I haven't heard any of her originals so I can't comment on that. Secondly, her covers are crap. I don't understand why the [...]
The latest song to be making the rounds on blogs is a song from up-and-coming star Kid Cudi called Sky Might Fall . The track isn't finished but it is produced by none other than Kanye West and features 808s drums. (not unlike Kanye's album!) Cudi just signed a distribution deal for his debut album which is due sometime mid-year. The album will be called Man On The Moon : The Guardians . I think this might be the album art. [...]
Woah. I opened up Google Reader today to find a post from 8/1 . It's not an English blog but they do post music that is in English. And today it was 10 Soulwax remixes. Jeez. MP3 : David Bowie - Rebel Rebel [Soulwax Remix] MP3 : Chemical Brothers - Hey Boy Hey Girl [Soulwax Remix] MP3: Daft Punk - Robot Rock [Soulwax Remix] MP3 [...]
Eminem's first album since Encore finally has a release date: Relapse - May 19th! Em had this to say: "A lot of people were expecting Relapse to drop last year. I was one of them. Then Dre and I went back in the studio in September for a few days, and that turned into six months. We were on such a roll; we wound up with a ton of new music produced by Dre. Putting out Relapse 2 will let everyone get all of the best [...]
Episode 7 was quite enjoyable but I don't think the songs were quite as good as last week. Flight of the Conchords - Happy Dance Flight of the Conchords - Scarborough Fair Flight of the Conchords - Demon Woman Flight of the Conchords - Demon Woman (Instrumental)

Hey there everyone, remember how I was talking about a certain new theme? Well this isn't it lol. I may eventually use the one I was talking about before, but I like my current one. It's called Vigilance, I heard had heard it before when it was added to the themes used for blogs hosted at wordpress.com and thought about using it. I forgot all about it, till I saw CajoleJuice over at SOMEWHATMANLYNERD.COM using it and remembered it! Hope you don't mind me using it? [...]
Well, I'm a bit behind but Grizzly Bear's album Veckatimest has leaked onto the tubes. (internet) And also two months before it's release date too. Ed Droste had this to say: Hey all,So yeah, we are kind of bummed this leaked so early. We know it's not the 90's anymore and times have changed, and we're super grateful for all the support people have shown us on the blogs and internet, but we were kind of hoping it wouldn't happen this soon. Ultimately we feel like we put out a great [...]
KiD CuDi jumped onto the scene (at least for me) when he was chosen to feature on Welcome To Heartbreak off Kanye's album 808's and Heartbreak. I had never heard of him before and found he was signed to Kanye's label G.O.O.D Music. I also found out that he had a mixtape called A Kid Named Cudi which I listened to a few times and thought was just ok. His single 'Day N Nite' has been remixed by the Crookers with an accompanying video too. He sampled LCD Soundsystem in [...]
Hey there everyone. I have been playing around with a theme I found which I think is pretty dope but I have been having a few problems. I'll probably try again tomorrow. The theme was the same one 402 uses at http://iamfourzerotwo.com
Following up on the post about HMV announcing the release date of Eminem's Relapse, I noticed they also have a release date for The Blueprint³. According to this page, it will be released on the 16th March. That's awfully optimistic considering it should have been released and gotten ready for release, don't you think? Whatever though lol. Hopefully it will be coming out soon. It's weird, the first single came out in September. That was so long ago and yet, the album is still not out. WTF. From Wiki; [...]
sunonthesand.net has posted that Eminem's upcoming LP Relapse will be released on April 28th. Or, at least according to HMV . Interesting, isn't it? Now can we have a release date for Detox? Please? Even if this is completely incorrect, it gives me the opportunity to post about Relapse. It will be Em's first album since 2004 when Encore was released. Relapse will also be produced by Dr. Dre. To be honest, I don't think Eminem hasn't ever been as good as he was on his first two albums, The [...]
