THEY'RE GOING TO EAT ME ALIVE

Photobucket
There is new music popping up all over the show, leaked and unleaked, and some of it free (in the 'sign up here for a free mp3' free, not 'follow this link to zshare' free - though i have an appreciation for both...).
For a perfect example of this, head either this way or that for a free download of the acoustic version of 'Help I'm Alive' taken from Metric's new album 'Fantasies' released in America and Canada on April the 14th. Well worth doing if you have an appreciation for free things and have had a hankering for the acoustic version ever since the first inklings that a new album was on the way...

YOU MUST HAVE KNOWN I WAS NEVER TO DOUBT YOU



Really beautiful new video by Eva Husson for The Presets 'If I Know You' released through Modular late March and taken from their second album 'Apocalypso'.

HEARTBEAT DRUMMING DOUBLE TIME



Ladyhawke was the first thing to hit me this morning both when I turned on my shuffle and then again when I turned on the radio... I am therefore taking the hint from the universe and alerting you to the fact that 'Paris is Burning' is set for re-release on March 2nd, and also posting this- the highly excellent video for 'My Delirium' completed by Sarah Larnach and FraterFilms.

WHERE DO THE WAVES GO

Sorry it's been so quiet round these parts for so long, hopefully that will change soon.
Until then... something for anyone still watching the snow fall.
