The Playlist 12-3-2008

10 songs you should hear now!

SERJ TANKIAN, MONEY
Serj Tankian could sing the contents of his shopping list and make it sound amazing, and with haunting piano and demented thrashing, Money is another winner.

MURDER BY DEATH, FUEGO
This low crawl through dark territory bubbles with an ominous intensity and would make the perfect soundtrack to stalk someone to. Which is always fun.
Click here

NEW FOUND GLORY, LOVEFOOL
Working their magic on this ’90s radio staple, the Florida boys give it some serious chug and rid the chorus of most of its sappiness. Bravo!
Click here

LINKIN PARK, GIVEN UP
Coming at you like ’80s classic My Sharona reworked for rocking the shit out of stadiums, this little beauty will have you dancing like a twat at Milton Keynes this summer.
Click here

RUSSIAN CIRCLES, HARPER LEWIS
Building up to a dramatic crescendo, this instrumental grabs you by the throat and refuses to let go. In a nice way. Sort of.
Click here

FALL OUT BOY, BEAT IT
It’s alarming how little FOB have had to change this Michael Jackson classic to make it sound like one of their own. Hopefully they have the moves down too...
Click here

FEEDER, MISS YOU
The boys are back and fucking hell they’re making sure we know it with this high-octane stormer. When they go loud, Feeder are always brilliant. Get ready to go nuts!

30 SECONDS TO MARS, A BEAUTIFUL LIE
Jared Leto and co continue their quest for world domination as they unleash yet another dramatic anthem with hooks the size of Ecuador on us.
Click here

ANGELS & AIRWAVES, SECRET CROWDS
‘If I had my own world...’ sings Tom DeLonge. ‘It would be a fairly mental place.….’ we sing back, but at least the music would be good, as evidenced here.
Click here

FLYLEAF, I’M SO SICK (REMIX)
Built on beds of electronic squeeps and woobles, chunky drums and the formidable pipes of Lacey Mosley this is a fine anthem for the disaffected.

all awesome... "beautiful lie" by 30stm is a great song, lykk the rest of their album... feeder's is a good song, and "given up" by LP is a really catchy tune... well worth a listen!

this is a really good list! fall out boy, angels and airwaves, 30 seconds to mars, linkin park, new found glory, feeder, serj tankian...good stuff, good stuff!
and hey - whats wrong with a little michael jackson? ;) we dont have to like the man, the music is what counts, and he made quality pop music, back in the day! i used to be embarassed about liking his stuff, but now i think - who gives a shit? i can like what i like, if i want to!
on a similar note - i have my tickets to prince in dublin, and i couldnt give a shit about the people in school laughing - what's so weird about a 14 year old girl who likes old, happy, pop music, along with new, depressing, rock music? i can have varied tastes IF I WANT TO.

KERRANG - SECRET CROWDS

Come on Kerrang, I still haven't seen the Secret Crowds video on your station yet, get in on there, the corporate emo shit is getting boring.
