Silversun's new album is rather solid with 4 or 5 stand out tunes. Heres my fav so far...

There's No Secrets This Year

Swoon comes out April 14 but nothing on it quite compares to the raw power of their breakout EP Pikul...

Antony and the Johnsons make creepy beautiful music. I imagine he's a vampire.

WMC wraps up in Miami today. To commemorate here is the tune that had the biggest buzz going into the conference. Arno Cost sits atop the DMC Buzz Chart for a second week with this progressive house EPIC!

I've had this Ravens & Chimes tune on HEAVY Ipod rotation for months now - its a durable track!

As a refreshing change of pace here is 22 yr old Nathan Williams aka Wavves, offering up some lo-fi surf / noise / punk sounds. I'm not a big fan of noise rock (i.e. Health & No Age), but this track is pretty spectacular. Its a great morning coffee tune.

This tune caught my ear while watching the excellent East Bound And Down. Besides scoring Rockstar Games' Bully, he has three albums coming out in 2009. First up is Soul In The Hole on Mar 10th and judging by this tune (which I completely missed the first time round) hes one to watch. Do yourself a favour and put this on repeat.
