Heavy Rotation - Friday The 13th

To start off this week's round up I recommend going over to Michachu's Myspace and checking out the track "Golden Phone", which is one of my favorites on her upcoming debut "Jewellery" (not a typo). She and her band The Shapes will be playing a bunch of sets during SXSW, but not coming through Tucson for WXSW. The album is a lot of fun and can be found over at El Rincon De Kik.

Next up to bat is the third album from Art Brut who are back with the same basic formula. It has definitely been done before but I've still been bumping it a lot this week; it's good for a laugh if nothing else. Check out Art Brut vs. Satan at nodata after you watch the video for "Alcoholics Unanimous."


I know this album is over a year old, but seeing as Vivian Girls just tweeted:
"We just finished tracking the entire 2nd album. Our hands are sore and we are psyched! 6:49 PM Mar 10th from web",
I thought it was a good time to post last year's self-titled debut in case you missed it. Follow the link to Ritmono to check it out.

And since I honestly believe this dude is going to overshadow Kanye within a year or two, check out the new Kid Cudi mixtape "Stoner Charm" from Rappamelo. Then watch the second video for Day N Nite which is way fresher than the first (which Cudi himself apparently hated.)

  1. The second video of Day N Nite (for the first version of the song) is way sick!

    Def. don't think he'll be overshadowing Kanye within a year though. Dude doesn't even have an album out yet, and DNN only got so big cause Crookers dropped their dirty disco all over that shit, and it physically forced your ass to shake... the original version is moodier and more of a commercial stalemate. That's not to say I don't absolutely love it, or maybe even prefer it.
