All videos are shown here apart from the Lower Than Atlantis song which is an album track.
Save Your Breath ft. Sean Smith: Stay young
Not a massive SYB fan, personally I think their music is no different to any other band but proper feeling this tune. It's got a good party/summer vibe and the lyrics that Sean Smith sings were so relevant to me when I first heard it. KIGH are in the video as well (Y) it's like a Welsh band fest.
Lower Than Atlantis: Mike Duce's symphony no. 11 in D minor
Every song on Lower Than Atlantis' debut album is a highlight but I think that this is by far my favourite. It's a lot slower and more melancholy than they're other songs but it's pretty powerful.
The Audition: You ruined this
I dislike that The Audition have come out with a new album so soon because I don't think that the songs on it are up to the standard that they should be. This one's alright, there's nothing bad about it, it has a catchy chorus I guess.
Aggro Santos ft.Kimberly Wyatt: Candy
To begin with I only liked this song because I found it fucking hilarious but actually it's not that bad. Also, the party in the video totally outdoes the party in the BEP 'I've got a feeling' video.

Big Boi: Shutterbug
I don't actually think before this I've heard any solo stuff from Big Boi but this is such a tune. On a first listen you're never quite sure where exactly it's going to go next.
Ocelot: Beating hearts
I first heard this months ago and I could not find it anywhere but it's here now. This has a Friendly fires/fenech-soler kind of vibe but a bit more dancey. OHHH IT'S SO GOOD AND CATCHY.
A Loss For Words ft. Four Year Strong: I want you back
This Jackson 5 cover outdoes Charlee Drew's cover by more than a mile. I have no words to describe how good this is.
Mike Dignam: Finders keepers
I never thought that I would be able to listen to this song without wanting to die but this guy has proper changed it up and made it sound so good. It actually does not sound anything like the original. Mike Dignam>You Me At Six. Someone give this guy a record deal or something.
Chiddy Bang: Truth
Definitely not as good as 'Opposite of adults' but it's the sped up Passion Pit sampled chorus that makes this I think. Without that it's nothing.
The King Blues: Headbutt
I am definitely not a King Blues fan but I think it's the catchy chorus that got me on this one.
Angry Vs The Bear: Show emotion
I heard this on BBC Introducing and was really surprised that I actually liked it. The singer has the same kind of vibe as Florence and Marina etc. Not sure what any of their other stuff sounds like but after hearing this, I'd tip them for big things in the future.
Young Guns: Sons of apathy
This is a grower. Not as good as some of their other stuff but it's not bad at all and it seems to be getting a fair bit of radio airplay for such a minor band.
Close Your Eyes: Song for the broken
To be fair they sound exactly the same as A Day To Remember but they replicate their sound pretty well. I also swear that the singer and Dan from We Are The Ocean were separated at birth, seriously. This song is the album highlight and I can imagine it being brilliant live.
