December Ipod Mix

The new Snow Partol single is "Chasing Cars" but more confessional, heartfelt, and less poppy. Which means, radio may play it, but bad ABC meolodramas about life being bittersweet will not. In other words, it's more awesome as a single (The LP is even better). Glasvegas is quickly become my new fav debut LP to fawn over. The new Kaiser Chiefs LP is ho hum, but the first two singles are stronger, including this second one. 3OH!3 is a cross between guilty pleasure and just guilty. Martha Wainwright continues to entrace me with that voice and guitar arrangements. Sterophonics released a greatest hits (about time, really) and dropped a rocking new single, if predictable and symbolic of their most popular works.
