Girl Talk

There’s no way that you haven’t heard Girl Talk’s new album, Feed the Animals.

Televised Crimewave

Televised Crimewave are an exciting new group to be reckoned with. Born from the ashes of technobilly-pop group Black Wire, this London four piece taps into a darker kind of madness.

The Age of Rockets

With their second album, Hannah, this New York group took their music to new heights. When singer Andrew Futral isn't experimenting with new melodies, he's offering his producing skills to up-and-coming musicians, answering questions on their MySpace and actually trying to put on shows where the fans ask him to.
