Crystal Fighters | You & I

British band Crystal Fighters has a new LP, Cave Rave, coming out at the end of this month, and here’s a new video for super happy single “You & I”. The video is not quite as happy as the song, except that it is very sweet in a morbid sort of way. It’s a love story of a very odd variety, but definitely worth a look, even if the ending will probably leave you gaping at the screen for a few seconds.

The 1975 | fallingforyou

These Manchester rockers have yet another EP coming out today, including “fallingforyou”, which finds them slowing things down. It’s a really lovely track from these boys that seem on a fast track to blowing up big. 

The new EP “IV” is out today so go grab it and all the rest of their stuff while you’re at it.

Fenech-Soler | Magnetic

Fall into this trippy dream and on through further into the old rabbit hole with these British boys and their video for single “Magnetic”, which is exactly what this song/video combo is. 

“Magnetic” comes off their upcoming 2nd album Rituals, 3 years since their debut. You can buy the song July 1st and the album will follow at the beginning of September.

Vampire Weekend | Step (Official Lyric video)

In preparation for VW’s Fuji Rock set this summer, I started listening to their albums again, and then yesterday began streaming their upcoming album Modern Vampires of the City on iTunes. I’ve already listened to it 3 times through and can safely say it is pretty brilliant from front to back. 

Here’s the official lyric video for one of many standout tracks, “Step”.

You can pre-order the new album now, which drops May 13/14th

Rivers Cuomo and Scott Murphy | Homely Girl

Well. Ok. Rivers Cuomo of Weezer fame and singer/songwriter Scott Murphy got together and decided to make an album almost entirely sung in Japanese. I’m not sure if this was a brilliant idea or what. But it exists and the single “Homely Girl” is kind of catchy and they’re slightly bad Japanese accents are kind of cute in a funny sort of way.

Capital Cities | Safe and Sound

“Safe and Sound”, the excellent single from LA based Capital Cities, has been on my iPod for ages, but now it finally has a fantastic video companion (seriously, one of the best I have posted this year). 

The clip goes through the history off dance in what must be the most epic dance-off of all time. And props to those behind editing this one, because it’s very, very cleverly done. 

Capital Cities album In A Tidal Wave of Mystery is out June 11th

Young Galaxy | Pretty Boy

“Pretty Boy”, the first single off YG’s latest album Ultramarine is exactly the kind of slick synth-pop I’ve always enjoyed from these guys, but their lyrics are reaching profound new heights here. 

So find your pretty boy and get ready to dance.

The xx | Together

Following Lana Del Rey and Florence, The xx also have a haunting new song out from the soundtrack for Baz Luhrmann’s new adaptation of The Great Gatsby. If nothing else, this film is going to have one mighty epic OST. 

Also check out the fabulous new tracks from Florence and Lana.

TELE-LISTEN

Balmorhea | Bowsprit

As seen on: Rectify, airing Mondays at 9:00 on Sundance

I’ve loved this song for years, and when I started watching Sundance Channel’s new 6 part limited series Rectify and heard it played over the opening credits, I knew good things were in store. And I was right. This show packs a very quiet, emotional punch. It’s not for anyone that wants things to, you know, happen, at least at any sort of rapid pace. But if you can sit back and enjoy all the small moments, this is a show that will very quickly draw you into caring about the characters living in this fictional small town in Georgia. 

Read more about Rectify HERE and check out more beautiful music from Balmorhea HERE.
