music for you: beirut - napoleon on the bellerophon

beirut - napoloen on the bellerophon

[can you tell i'm in a beirut state of mind these days? taken from his online EP pompeii (buy it at emusic or rough trade), zach condon apparently recorded these tunes before he became the leader of the gulag orkestar. one can also guess that his rumored current affinity to all things french is showcased in this song, so take your pic of theories. personally, i just love him.]

music for you: the walkmen - red river

the walkmen - red river
[though spider man 3 is an overlong empty affair, at least it's soundtrack is packed with enough goodies from the likes of the killers, wolfmother, rogue wave and snow patrol. this is the contribution from NY based cutie patooties the walkmen. personally, i just love lead singer Hamilton Leithauser's screechingly soaring vocals!]

music for you: interpol - the heimrich maneuver

interpol - the heimrich maneuver
[with the blog world going gaga over the ny quartet's new release, i figured i'd check it out for myself. taken off their upcoming album Our Love To Admire, it sounds like interpol have moved away from their lush joy division sound into a more rockier arena. personally i'm a fan of their previous work.]
