Male Bonding - Weird Feelings

Male Bonding have got a new video out for their song "Weird Feelings". Is it too early to start calling them the new Nirvana?

Does It Offend You, Yeah? - We Are The Dead

New "Does It Offend You, Yeah?"! They show an indie charm for the first few seconds, but quickly sink into the electro stomp that we love them for. Watch the video for new song "We Are The Dead" here. If you feel like remixing it, everything you need is here.

Zola Jesus - Sea Talk

This a cleaned up version of the track that appeared on her 2009 EP, "Tsar Bomba". "Stridulum" really was a turning point for Ms.Jesus. Gone is the lo-fi production, welcome soaring gothic ballads. Download "Sea Talk" from her new album, "Stridulum II", here.

Egyptian Hip Hop - Middle Name Period

Egyptian Hip Hop aren't actually Egyptian, and they don't rap. Must say, cool name though! Their music is full of stabbing synths, and rhythmically it's all over the place. Imagine 808 State's younger sister, on E. They're impossible to categorize. Download their new song "Middle Name Period", which is going to be on their upcoming EP "Some Reptiles Grew Wings", here.

Solar Bears - She Was Coloured In

Solar Bears are releasing their debut album, "She Was Coloured In", this September. Watch the video for the title track here. Spacey synths and analogue beats.

Arcade Fire - The Suburbs

After the dark, oppressive tones of "Neon Bible", Butler and co. return with something most unexpected - a pop album. At least, what a think a good modern pop album should sound like. Brave, emotive lyrics. Diverse instrumentation. Showing their influences, but looking forward all the time. The Suburbs is thought provoking, it demands attention from the listener. Tracks like "Empty Room" and "Month of May" are full of immediacy that drags the listener in, but are contrasted by grand, epic songs like "Ready to Start" and "Suburban Warfare" and minor-heavy tunes like "Rococo" and "Sprawl (Flatland). Quite simply, a must have album, powerful, intellectual and interesting. A classic in years to come.

1. The Suburbs
2. Ready to Start
3. Modern Man

Fiction - Zebra Crossing

Fiction's video for their brilliantly hazy, brittle song "Zebra Crossing"

Electricity In Our Homes - Hooves

Electricity In Our Homes keep pushing their sound. Tribal rhythms, artful repetition, they sound like the Fire Engines covering Can. In other words, their new EP, "We Agree Completely", is a complete winner in my books. Modern post-punk at it's best. Can't wait to hear more from these guys. Listen to and download "Hooves" here.

Salem's debut full length is out September the 28th. You've heard the lead track off it, King Night. Now hear new track Asia.

Gallops are a band from Wrexham, Wales. Their music is like soul music for robots, math driven electro post-rock.
