New Music

New music I'm listening to in no particular order:

South "Adventures in the Underground Journey to the Stars" - download "A Place in Displacement" I'm a sucker for melodic Brit-Pop with brains - why isn't there more of that coming out of Amerika?

Flaming Lips "At War with the Mystics" - indy meets prog rock but there are some nuggets.

Interpol "Antics" - download "Slow Hands" - just saw this 2004 video and got back into them.

The Delays "You See Colours" - chick singer and nice hooks, what's not to like.

Richard Ashcroft "Keys to the World" - former Verve frontman releases spotty effort but I like him anyway.

Ralph Myerz and the Jack Herren Band - anything by these guys is highly listenable, funky, out-there and Norwegian, how cool is that?

Check out Metacritic for reviews of all kinds of stuff, especially good for uncovering new musical finds.
