I stumbled across philly-native three-piece Girl Scouts a few weeks back and have been crushing on what little material they have released ever since. "Superbowl Birthday Party" is a mathy emo/indie rock jam complete with big hooks, charismatic riffage and gang vocals. You can check out their two song demo, thanksalot and their split with Old Gray via Bandcamp Superbowl Birthday Party by Girl Scouts

After having a — shall we say, eventful — Memorial Day, Justin Bieber has jetted off to Europe for a handful of promotional appearances for his forthcoming album, Believe . "OFF TO EUROPE! PHASE 1 of operation secret concerts! lol. OSLO first stop. See u soon," tweeted Bieber, who is apparently surprising his European fans with some surprise live shows. (His first scheduled performance is June 9 in London.) We hope the singer enjoys his time on the other side of the Atlantic, because when he returns, he [...]

There is something to be said for simplicity. In fact, there is a lot to be said for simplicity, especially when you're talking about Bobby Womack . From what we've heard so far of his Damon Albarn/Richard Russell produced album, The Bravest Man In The Universe , there is an electronic influence to much of the production, and while it's great to hear a legend like Bobby trying something new, the simple pleasure of an acoustic guitar and his wonderfully emotive voice remains hard to beat. This video was shot in Bobby Womack's home, and he had the following to say [...]

A case can be made that Tuesdays are a lost day. Overshadowed by the perpetual longing for the weekend or the perennial dread reserved for Mondays, Tuesdays are often swept under the carpet and forgotten. Acting as a protagonist, Jhameel is trying to add some excitement to our weekly Tuesdays by releasing one song each Tuesday off his new Are You Free series. Having already released the first two tracks, Jhameel is back for his third Tuesday, releasing "A Maiden Calling." "A Maiden Calling" has a wonderfully fanciful aura about it, which [...]

Sometimes between blogging, trying to stay current with the things I know, and a 9-5 job I miss out on some big news. Next weekend I'll be catching the Red Hot Chili Peppers set at Bonnaroo and recently I learned John Frusciante left the band some time ago to again pursue an indie solo career. Frusciante is a genius, hands down and it's pretty disheartening that I won't be able to see the group perform together. Not many people could have filled a gap for Flea and Anthony when they're [...]

Earlier today, Slipknot posted a new video entitled #0 on their official website , with no information other than the cryptic phrase 'Antennas To Hell' and the date 17 July 2012. What does this all mean? The video in question centres entirely around the band's DJ, Sid Wilson, which is hardly surprising given that the video's title matches Wilson's number in Slipknot: #0. It's a mixture of live footage and various behind-the-scenes footage of Slipknot's stagedive-hungry scratcher, and while the video doesn't feature any new Slipknot music, [...]

To start your summer off right, it's UK beat-smith Damn You Mongolians (aka Steve Southern) with a club-ready remix of Queen Of Hearts ' latest single, "Tears In The Rain." With a dub-infused chorus and a healthy infusion of electronic blips and beeps, this one's sure to make you put on that ill-fitted tank and head straight to the closest rooftop rave (that totally exists). The original, available on vinyl 73 via ATG Records , was produced by Stefan Storm (of Sound Of Arrows) and has been leading her majesty's recent wave of blogesphere buzz. Download the remix [...]

This week is a big one for new albums. Today, the Walkmen's Heaven finally hits shelves. When we made our list of our 25 favorite albums of the year thus far, it landed at #2. Make no mistake: It's a fucking great albums and you need to hear it. Sigur Rós's Valtari is another high-profile release worth your time. But if you've been paying attention to Stereogum for the past few months, you already know that we think that. So we're using this space this week to draw [...]

I'm actually not dead, and I do apparently remember my admin password here. Just wanted to pass along this seven-man piano rendition of Kanye West's "N***as in Paris", because one of my co-workers is in it, and it's pretty cool. And you should check it out. If you like this, check out cdza 's Bandcamp . If you don't like this, you either hate pianos, hate Kanye West, or just wish you could make a cooler piano cover of a Kanye West track. I feel you. My piano skills leave much to be desired. [...]

B-Rob introduced me to a young prodigy by the name of Bird Peterson today - and I'm hooked on his edit of "The Veldt." I have no idea why this is called the "Drankenstein Remix" - as the remix is done by Bird Peterson, but if that's what he wants it to be called then I will abide by his request. The kid has signed to Diplo's Mad Decent label, which makes perfect sense after you listen to his skills on full display below. He opts for a brand new drum pattern and beefs up the spacey synths to create [...]
