Man these Northern Islanders know how to rock! The layout is electro indie dance goodness, the lyrics are sweet and catchy as hell. I enjoy the vocals none of the Irish slur like "we were promised rocket packs" but good none the less. My only gist is this album is all too short as it is sweet. With only 10 tracks spanning 33 minutes you feel its all over all too soon like when a party is getting good and the popo shuts it down=P. I have big hopes for these guys

Interpol "Mirrors"
The new album is summed up in one word "wow". They're a band that took me awhile to get into, with the leads monotone delivery and their sound being somewhat shaky. The 1st 2 albums I got really into the 3rd was forgettable they felt like they stalled on their style. I'm sure a lot of of fans agreed. I guess they heard us cause this new album has more energy then any of the others and strengths were there used to be weakness. I have renewed hope for these guys and I hope we continue to get more goodies like this. With Hypernova and the burning hotels finding a new home on my itouch this album is the welcoming committee
Born Ruffians "Say it "
Born Ruffians have been one of my guilty pleasures for sometime. They have their own sound something like on the verge of country pop crossed with dance rock. This new album is more Ruffian goodness, I have to say their sound has matured in this Album with the lead howling less and the sound more honed in to a clean while still having some of that playfulness that I enjoyed from the 1st album.
Mr.Focus "Laser Vision" Mixtape
Today I listened to this Mixtape and was rocking it all day. The lyrics are boss and the the productions work the trunk tight. Its all original stuff and all good to the ear. Its not street heavy so you feel more like bobbing you head as opposed to capping a bitch. Take a listen

Kanye West "G.O.O.D. ass mixtape" mixtape
Kanye West comes off this week pushing a mixtape that got the works. Kanye is no stranger to productions and setting up original backdrops and hooks so its no surprise that you get good on what thumps in the back. The Spitting is on point as always with guest rappers stepping in for a few bars.The album isn't a focused beam with clean tracks that cut to the bone.What we get is a machine gun spray of awesomeness, You got club tracks ,trunk thumpers, and gutter mean muggin shit. If you don't got the ears to take in Variety then step off but I recommend you sloth through the tracks that don't vibe with you cause the ones that do are worth it.

B.A.R.S Murre "Thats Why They Dont Like Me" mix tape
Ok this is B.A.R.S mixtape I took a listen and have to say that he's got skills, his spitting style is gutta and you feel it thoughout the tape but its done right no club tracks this is all street hussling but done right. Take it
Hypernova " through the chaos"
This is the second album released by these guys and I must say its phenomenal. 1st off the lyrics are catchy,memorable, and meaningful ranging on topics like love and peace but without the hippie pretentiousness. The delivery is done in a close to monotone like style as if Interpol played on happy pills and went for energetic dance rock. Its an awesome album all around one I highly recommend.
