Wavves – Take On The World

I didn’t like Wavves’s first two albums because I’m a crabby old man that doesn’t like when music is too fuzzy and peaked-out to understand. Fortunately, Wavves’s newest album was actually recorded in a studio instead of through a MacBook Pro’s internal microphone. As a result it’s now clear to my old-man ears that Wavves can write really fun, tight and catchy songs that are only a little fuzzy and only a little peaked-out. Also, the artwork on the new record is really neat.

Pre-order Wavves’s “King of the Beach” here. It comes out in early August.

The Black Keys – Everlasting Light

This is the first track from The Black Keys’s new album Brothers. The album came out about a week ago. This song is really catchy and fun – so much so that I really wouldn’t be surprised if it ended up being a giant radio hit, or at least appears in the background of a Cadillac commercial.

You can pick up the album here.

A.Human – P.F.C.

A.Human : Brick Lane Festival 2009 : P.F.C. from A.Human on Vimeo.

Painfully catchy tune from London’s own A.HUMAN set to footage from the Brick Lane Festival they played last year. I’m loving the new wave throwback vibe they bring to the table. Their self-titled EP is full of more ass-shaking goodness so make sure to grab a copy from them.

Ted Leo & The Pharmacists – Woke Up Near Chelsea

From their upcoming album “The Brutalist Bricks”, out March 9th, Ted Leo & The Pharmacists made one heck of a fist-pumper. Also, tight use of a flange pedal.
