got nothing to lose but loneliness and patterns



Spoon - Got Nuffin
Spanking kick ass new track hot off their latest album "Transference". For all the fans of Spoon, who think "Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga" can't topped, I think "Transference" could give it a run for it's money. The solid riffs a contrast to the forlorn longing of love, but somehow it seems right as Britt Daniel lets his emotions loose in a controlled manner.

Sam Isaac - Bears
And all along the front of this stage there will be fairy lights/as bright as any city night.

Very nice synth rock? song, hear the synth in the background if you take a close listen. Almost cathartic if not for the title. Bears, what?

Barcelona - Please Don't Go
This trio of Brian Fennell, Chris Bristol and Rhett Stonelake make absolutely (coincidentally, "Absolutes" is the title of the album this song is from) the most beautiful piano-infused rock (mostly). When there's no piano involved, it's pretty much good awesome rock. There's elements of Keane and Coldplay, only that they're not even 1% as well known as their counterparts. Their songs are gems just waiting to be uncovered, and it's been taking a while.
