New Music Tuesday

It's Tuesday, and I've got a couple new songs to show you all. First, though, a few big albums came out this week.


First off is Humbug by the Arctic Monkeys. This band's been huge in England for several years now, and you may know their songs I Bet That You Look Good On The Dancefloor or Teddy Picker. Humbug takes a much darker and slower turn than their previous two albums. It's different, to say the least, but I'm still getting into it. Check out:



Next is David Guetta's One Love. To be honest, if you've heard one of his new songs you've heard them all. Party anthems for the club, in the vein of Love Is Gone. Substitute big name artist for each track and you get the idea. I wish his album had more musical variance, but it really doesn't.

Jet came out with Shaka Rock. There is some nice progression in their sound on certain songs. Others sound like the same old wannabe rock and roll. Maybe it's just me but sometimes this band sounds like it's trying too damn hard.

Here are some interesting stand alone tracks I found this week:

Passion Pit: To Kingdom Come
A catchy song with a neat video...


Needtobreathe: Lay 'Em Down
Soulful, reminiscent of K.o.L.

The xx: Islands
Nice, chill, electronic sound


Lily Allen's new single 22 live


...and In For The Kill by La Roux


Out
