[COLOR=black]lovely, quirky indie-pop from sweden that contains some great use of samples and has drawn comparisons with belle & sebastien, morrisey & stephen merrit. check out his website for more info and you can even download some of his songs for free here (and it’s all official) – be sure to check out the wonderful pocketful of money while you’re threre [/COLOR]

[COLOR=black]another group of hyped up kids that whilst aren’t exactly groundbreaking have written an album that includes some great songs that mixes 80s ska with jangly guitars and has a sense of humour that reminds me of early supergrass. their website has some audio tracks to listen to as well as a couple of free tracks to download. check ‘em out [/COLOR]

and Lekman was released last year, but it is truly awesome. much better than his debut, this one has this lo-fi feeling attached and lots of tongue.in.cheek humour.

f-word, f-word, pardon my french.....

My first rec of the year is the lovely new Cat Power "the greatest"... I pre order it and should he here in a few days.. but i can't wait..!!! i've been listening to it while it arrives & it's Awsome awsome as always! and is less creppy than some songs of You are free.. Im wired to this.

the title song is pretty good for sure.

I got:

Kooks - Inside in/Inside Out, good stuff and i've been a fan since i saw them support the thrills about a year and a bit ago.though th album version of eddies gun is rubbish to the single version.

Arctic Monkeys - Whatever people.... - good, but i do think its a little overhyped like!

be your own PET - Lets get sandy - 56 seconds of rowdy drums and edgey vocals. lovely.

Plan B - Kidz - Been told it was a promo only 7", some really bad lyrics in terms of what hes rapping but i really like it.
