Bless your soul.

Spamming this since I think it's really good:

Download this if you like Scissors Sisters, but you wish they were less disco and more souul:

yes, Nicole Atkin's second album is out in January. Can't wait.

Oooh, can't wait. I remember seeing somewhere she recently replaced her band from the last album. I hope this one can live up to expectations if that's true.

I also wanted to share this album with you guys, it's pretty fantastic. It's Swedish pop by a singer named Salem Al Fakir. It's very "classic" sounding. Salem's voice is very unique and I like it a lot. There's power pop, soul, arena rock, and psychedelic influence here. Not everything is successful, but overall I think this is a very good album.

This was featured on some sort of car commercial if I'm remembering correctly, excellent, catchy song regardless.

OK, I'll delete the other one. I think this should be stickied though.

Really nice melancholic electronic/ambient pop. Here's a clip.

In an interview she claimed her album will be closer to rock. Take that as you will, as broad a definition as rock is.

It could be bad, it could be good. I am interested.

Oh Solange what are you doing right now? Could you please stop fucking around with Of Montreal and do shit that is 10x better than their best again?

Mitch NZ · **Posted:** Thu Nov 18, 2010 11:25 pm

Yes please. Solange is awesome. Also, mark my words, if Lady Gaga's next album is too close to straight-up rock, it will suck.

That was my knee-jerk reaction, but considering the success with which she's pulled off Elton John and David Bowie-esque ballads I'm unwilling to have low expectations.

Mitch NZ · **Posted:** Thu Nov 18, 2010 11:29 pm

If it's produced right - a rock feel with inventive instrumentation and avoiding all the traps of rock production - it stands a chance at being awesome. But at this point I'm skeptical.

I'm really liking the latest Rihanna single.

This thread needs stickying too.
