It’s here! The new video to the next single by the amazing, La Roux.
In For The Kill sounds a wee bit like Quicksand, but Quicksand is awesome- so I’m not complaining!
ENJOY! x

Spinnerette.
As we all know, Brody Dalle used to be in a rather excellent band The Distillers. Raise your hand if you cried when you were informed that the band you were totally in love with split up! I know I did. I adored The Distillers, and I class Coral Fang as one of the best albums my ears have ever heard.
But, we have to move on don’t we. New band, Spinnerette do NOT sound like The Distillers which I reckon is a good thing. I mean, if they were to sound just like The Distillers- why split up you know? A lot of fans of Brody seem quite pissed at her for what she’s created with Spinnerette. LET IT GO. Brody is ace at whatever she does.
Spinnerette are playing two shows in the UK this month. 23rd in London and 24th in Birmingham. I’m going to the Birmingham gig. I am stupidly excited. I never saw The Distillers live, but I don’t care- I get to see Brody Dalle. I wouldn’t care if she was fronting Coldplay..oh wait, maybe I would. But you get my point.
Have some songs :
Morrissey….naked.
That’s right, Morrissey naked. With his band. With only vinyl as a cover up.
There’s nothing more I can say really. But, buy the single and album 🙂
YOU PERVS! :p
Kasms
The new video by Kasms, it’s called Bone You and is now up on YouTube. I love it, I love them. Details about release is on the “more info” bit under the poster’s name.
Give them a listen, they’re not that bad. In fact, they are quite good.
Big L VS Jay-Z
To anyone who regards Soulja Boy or whoever as a good rapper, you should be ashamed.
I want you to listen to this 7 minute clip. It was like I found a load of gold when I found this on YouTube. It’s probably the best thing on YouTube. Anyway, Big L was/is/always will be one of the greatest rappers. Hip Hop will always be one of my biggest loves, and listening to Big L makes me realise why I love Hip Hop. Some of the greatest one liners ever written came from him. And you know what? It’s probably one of the best verses Jay-Z ever did too.
thecocknbullkid NEW VIDEO!!!
The amazing Anita Blay aka thecocknbullkid has uploaded her stunning new video for the fantastic new single, I’m Not Sorry.
I adore it, but then again I adore her music.
Hopefully this year she’ll get the recognistion she deserves. A genuine talent.
TAKE NOTE!
The Kills- Black Balloon (Video)
Finally! The video to the best song off the best album of last year, Black Balloon by The Kills.
It’s sexy,sad and beautiful.
Enjoy!

Aaliyah Dana Haughton
There’s one singer who for me, was and always will be my favourite. I may love other singers, but this one is the most special. I hate that I have to write it all in past tense when talking about her.
Today would’ve been Aaliyah’s 30th birthday. I remember first hearing Back & Forth and falling in love. I was only young, but it was enough. I started really caring about music because of her, and if I’m honest when I hear R&B singers now, I can’t help but think “Aaliyah did it first.” I think most of her fans feel the same way. Her sound was like no other, yet every other sound a bit like her. Her dancing was flawless and her voice was relaxing. You could listen to One In A Million and be sent to your own little world.
Although she was 22 when she died, she accomplished a hell of a lot. Two successful films, 3 amazing albums and an army of loyal fans. I managed to finally get hold of Romeo Must Die on DVD a few months ago! However, her eating a heart in Queen Of The Damned did make me feel a bit nauseas! Watching those performances, there’s no denying that she would’ve played lead in a bunch of films and more than likely won a bunch of awards!
I’m going to attempt to list my Top 10 Aaliyah tracks. I’ll probably change my mind as soon as I click on “Publish.” 🙂
10.Journey To The Past
9.Messed Up
8.Miss You
7.If Your Girl Only Knew
6.At Your Best(You Are Love)
5.Try Again
4.We Need A Resolution
3.More Than A Woman
2.Turn The Page
1.One In A Million
I want to make it more than my Top 10 because I feel Hot Like Fire should be in there and 4 Page Letter. Those two are timeless. Classic videos too. So for the record, I’ll probably want to change my mind but won’t. Can’t forger rare tracks like Are You Ready?, Steady Ground and No Days Go By. Oh, and I Am Music (Timbaland and Static)
She was the only singer that I really wanted to meet. Her signature sound/style will never get old and will continue to influence.
This is probably the longest blog entry I’ve done, and is probably quite lame/pathetic but..whatever.
I forgot to add this video I found on YouTube, it’s a live performance which shows Aaliyah quite possibly at her best. I love it 🙂 Aaliyah- If Your Girl Only Knew (Live)
Happy Birthday Aaliyah ~/.\~

Morrissey- I Am Throwing My Arms Around Paris.
Finally! A video to the new Morrissey track. It’s a bloody good video. Why? Well, it has 2 cute dogs, Morrissey looking good (as usual) and his drummer seems to fly over his drumkit (around 2.13)
I’m pretty sure Years Of Refusal will pick up where Ringleader Of The Tormentors left off.
Enjoy 🙂
