Heartsrevolution's New EP 'Hearts Japan' Out Now!

Hey, guys! Well, you probably haven't heard of Heartsrevolution, but they're AMAZING! You may have actually heard their most popular song 'Dance Till Dawn' on Gossip Girl (it's in the scene from Jenny's sweet sixteen). Anyway, they've just released their fourth (I believe) EP called 'Hearts Japan'. It has pretty much the songs they've already released (C.Y.O.A., Switchblade, Dance Till Dawn) with remixes, but it also has one new song called Prism Effect (featuring Cory Kennedy) and a "lullaby" version of their great song 'Digital Suicide', which is really lovely. Both of the songs are awesome. If you've never bought any Heartsrevolution song, this is a great bundle to buy because it pretty much has all of their best songs. You can get it on iTunes now! Seeya!

The Raveonettes' New Album In and Out of Control Out Today!

You may have heard their hit song 'Dead Sound' featured in the movie Whip It or on the iTunes Lollapalooza free sampler (GREAT song, by the way). The Raveonettes just released their new album, In and Out of Control today. It's got some great-sounding tracks on it and I can't wait to buy it! Next time you're at the record store and don't know what to buy, definitely pick it up. I believe a limited number of CDs have something special inside...
Anyway, you can get two tracks from their new album...yes, FOR FREE! Just go to this website (http://share.theraveonettes.com/) and with the first two links you can get two free downloads of their songs 'Last Dance' and 'Suicide'. It's free, so what are you waiting for?

Ladyhawke's Acoustic Set at Space 1520!

Okay, I'm EXTREMELY happy. I just met Ladyhawke--twice! I went to her acoustic set at Space 1520 near Urban Outfitters, it was really amazing! My friend and I were RIGHT in the front. Afterwards, when she was walking off I said hi and we actually talked! It was really cool. Then later while we were walking around in Urban Outfitters we walked past her, too. It was such a fun day. Ladyhawke's SO awesome! Hopefully you guys will get to see her live the next time she comes to your city! This show was free, but it's definitely worth buying tickets for. See ya!

Ladyhawke's New Video for Her Next UK Single, Magic!

Hey, guys! You might've heard me talk about Ladyhawke a while back when she came out with her US Only Deluxe Album. Well, now Pip's coming out with a new single in the UK called Magic, which is also on the album. It's a really great song, and I think it's her most popular. Anyway, today the video was released on NME and I found a link on it for YouTube. It's a strange video but it's pretty cool. Watch it, and if you haven't bought the song already, BUY IT! I'm going to post the video on here for everyone to watch. Have fun!

La Roux's Debut Album Is Out Now/Fran Drescher's Debut Single Eye For an Eye (Late, sorry)

Okay, I'm really mad at myself. Sorry this post is really late! I just wanted to say that exactly a week ago from today La Roux's self-titled debut album came out. I haven't had the time to buy it, but it sounds really awesome. Also, her single "Bulletproof" was up for the free Single of the Week on iTunes. Unfortunately, it's some other song now. Sorry I didn't post it earlier, you probably would've been able to get it. Or maybe you downloaded anyway, that's smart. Anyway, something else was also released just yesterday. Fran Drescher's debut single, Eye For an Eye! Woo! (crickets from audience). Now, I'm a HUGE Fran Drescher fan (she's my hero!), but I wasn't so sure about her recording a song. I sampled it on iTunes and I was surprised. It's actually pretty good! I know her voice is really nasaly, but she somehow made it work. You don't have to buy it (I didn't even buy it, don't have any iTunes money :S), but I think you should at least give it a listen on YouTube or something. You might be surprised! So, two new releases for all you people to listen to! Have fun!
