Thursday's Tracks

The Good:
Flight of the Conchords - "Ladies of the World"; This may not be the funniest or best Flight of the Conchords song ever, but it is still betten then about 90% of the shit out there right now. It's a good song with some fantastic moments, and it's certainly helping stoke my excitement for their upcoming album!

Old Haunts - "Volitile"; This song was sent to me in an e-mail the other day and all I can say is that I'm hooked. I love evrything about this song especially the overall atmosphere of the track. Definitely a band I'll be keeping my eye on from now on.

Langhorne Slim - "Rebel Side of Heaven"; I've been waiting for the new Langhorne Slim album for a while and the wait is almost over! The first taste of the album is an excellent track that shows growth while staying true to his sound. This should be a solid release.

The Bad:
The Long Blondes - "Here Comes the Serious Bit"; I loved the last Long Blondes album, but seeing them live crushed me. They were boring, playing their tunes straight forward and with little emotion. I chalked it up to nerves at the time but after listening to this I'd have to say that the lack of emotion was no fluke.

Mystery Jets - "Young Love" (Shoes Remix); Most of you already know I am sick of remixes, so when they are bad they really do suck. This one certainly doesn't have any redeeming value whatsoever.

The Ugly:
The Trews - "Hold Me In Your Arms"; Listening to this reminded me of the early days of Audioslave and I couldn't stand that band either!

Video of the Week:

Why? - "Song of the Sad Assassin"; Cool videoN cool song, nothing wrong with this!
