Beastie Boys
Make Some Noise (Preview)
This forthcoming album preview may last only 30 seconds but from what we can tell, Beastie Boys' have one eye on a return to the charts.
TV on the Radio
DLZ
The band has just announced its first UK shows in over three years. Fingers crossed this atmospheric synth-soul number gets an airing.
Fucked Up
The Other Shoe
Gorgeous female vocals add fragility to this otherwise brutal track – an excerpt from their forthcoming 18-track, 78-minute long, hardcore, punk-rock opera.
Pentagram
8
Classic heavy metal from the Virginian veterans. Metallica and Misfits fans will love its vintage rock grunt.
Pollens
After Dance
Smart Seattle-based synth pop, performed with an unashamedly eccentric spirit.
The Severed Limb
Making Out on the Couch
This accordion-led, skiffle-influenced rock'n'roll band secured Steve Lamacq's seal of approval after a storming show in London last week.
Dum Dum Girls
He Gets Me High
Typical Sub Pop Records fare. Fizzy, grungy flower-pop.
EMA
California
Powerful and poetic, this is angsty Americana at its best. Inspired lyrically by everyone from Patti Smith to Bo Diddley, EMA's musical accompaniment remains distant – featuring faraway drums, minor chord violins and heartstring-tugging feedback drones.
