Penned Madness

It's funny how we call it a grilled cheese sandwich when it's mostly just bread.

Decade

The boys from Flight Facilities just got back from a whirlwind trip to Paris to play at the renowned Paris Social Club, with a twist.

"We played at a party over there called 'Decade'. The idea of the party is that each artist/act has to play music from a certain decade. We were assigned the 70's so we prepared as best we could...For now, sit back, enjoy the mix and maybe get Mum and Dad to have a listen too. They may recognize a few tunes."

On repeat forever.

Fat Noize

With a stolen car, a trip to the beach, a gun, and attempted murders of various illusory people in the clouds, the video for "Make It Better" from The Knocks fits no mold that the song creates for it. Then again, members Ben "B-Roc" Ruttner and James "J-Patt" Patterson don't really fit any mold that critics and fans try to fit them inside either. Even with good looking girls and expensive cars, it is the tune that' is the most infectious thing about the "Make It Better" video - a testament in this day and age of too much concern with image and not enough with content. Brace yourself for a fist fight with modern rock coolness.

The closest thing to having a midas touch would be having a treasure finger one. His songs are well written and never come across as obvious. Music like that always wins in my house. Bump this batch like a bumper car you're really angry at because the six year old driving it is incompetent and just not taking the bumper car experience seriously.

White Lies

It's not everyday that you get banned by Google for being an alleged malware distributor. It was rather annoying actually, like couples who sit on the same side of the booth when there is no one on the other side or when you're eating candy and someone asks if they can have a red one...go get your own. None the less it led to a pretty quiet week on the hill but we're hoping we've got the problem licked. So what better way to encourage everyone to burn off that gloom and doom than by bringing Crystal Castles back with another angry addition to their repertoire.

The Cure's Robert Smith - now a 51-year old poster child - has lent his vocals for singing duties and maintains the ferocious, glitched out sound that Alice Glass and Ethan Kath are so well known for. Alice is creepy and chaotic but she makes me want to find a girl with thick black eye liner and go make out in a cemetery.

Whether you're a dj who needs a set list boost or just the kid who likes to commandeer the ipod at house parties, here are a few post-Halloween jams for you to play out.
