Got Some Tunes [April]


The Diana Vickers video is disabled from embedding. I was unable to find the re-worked version of The Big Pink so I have not included the song on this playlist. To view the entire playlist on my channel click here.


Darwin Deez: Radar detector
It's catchy. I'm not so sure about his other stuff but this one, it's catchy.

Lostprophets: For he's a jolly good felon
Compared to the rest of "the betrayed" this is the track on the album that sounds the most like songs from "Liberation Transmission". It's pretty good, definitely the most mainstream song they've released from this album so far.

Diana Vickers: Once
I have no idea what appeals to one about Vickers' dreadfully annoying voice and I can't really remember what I liked so much about her when she was on X Factor but I guess this song isn't bad.

Deftones: Diamond eyes
DEFTONES ARE BACK =) I think that the title track from the forthcoming album is a lot better than current single "Rocket Skates" but that may just be my selective taste in Deftones tunes.

Proceed: Visual field
I don't think Proceed will ever make a bad song. I am however disappointed that they only use one vocalist now, I liked the screaming...

Yashin: Get loose!
Not just another emo/screamo/fringe/black hair/lame band. Don't ask me what makes them different but there is definitely something about them. They deserve to be big.

Jayz feat. Swizz Beatz: On to the next one
I actually really like this but the use of the sample absolutely does my head in. From the first time I heard this, the song just does not make sense because the real line that the sample comes from is "under the spotlight" and I find that when I know it actually says "under the" I can not make it sound in my head like it says "on to the". Other than that, it's a pretty good sample.

Bullet For My Valentine: The last fight
Bullet are back, thank God. They've definitely left the glitch that was 'Scream Aim Fire' behind and returned their sound to 'The Poison' era. This is a strong debut single from the new album 'Fever' and is pretty much just textbook Bullet.

Futues: The boy who cried wolf
Risen from the ashes of Tonight Is Goodbye, Futures gave away their debut EP with the March issue of Rock Sound magazine. This is definitely the stand out track from the CD. CHECK IT.

The Big Pink: Tonight
Taking 'Dominos' into account The Big Pink can sure as hell right an anthem and 'Tonight' is doubtlessly enough to rival the success they had with their first single. The duo are releasing a reworked version of the song that in my opinion sounds a lot better than the original album version.

Rusko: Hold on
As far as I am aware this is a very different sound from typical Rusko tunes. He's taken a more mainstream route with this song including some female vocals and not as much of the darker dubstep sounds that he often uses. Definitely one to check out.
