Weekend of 08-10-12

Posted by on August 10, 2012  

This was definitely one of the highlights for me in 2012. Such greatness, such excellence. Usain Bolt has nothing on this guy. False. The Olympics were great, back to reality. I need a beer.
• Capital Cities – Nothing Compares 2 U - Oh, Sinead would be proud. Capital Cities latest track pulls out a cover of this 90′s smash. About what you’d expect – electro hipster, like Phoenix, and it’s great.
• Ellie Goulding – Anything Could Happen –  Ellie Goulding is so legit. Soft spoken, Avril Levine clone and she drops the best electronic music of 2012. This is her newest jam, and it’s awesome. Remember – anything could happen (shut up Wyclef).
• Charli XCX – Stay Away - Yup – this came up on my Songza playlist the other day. It’s like Leona Lewis on heroin – so f’ing awesome. Dark and stormy. Makes me want to quit my job. Oh wait – I don’t have one.
• Divine Fits – Would That Not Be Nice –  Solid track – rough around the edges with an overdrive vocal line that fits perfects. Get it?
• Ozzy Ozborne – Mama, I’m Coming Home –  Yep, this is one of my all time favorites. There’s nothing that touches my soul more than a drug infused degenerate rock god that sings about being at the bottom. Throw in a few epic power chords and guitar solos and I feel safe, like being in your house during a thunderstorm. So glad I wore all black today.
