The Dodos - Confidence
New track from The Dodos’ forthcoming LP. Carrier will be The Dodos’ first release on Polyvinyl, the home of Japandroids, and a label that can do no wrong in my book.
Well, it doesn’t get any cooler than this. Astronaut Chris Hadfield playing Bowie’s “Space Oddity”… in space.
Laura Marling - Once
From her forthcoming album, Once I Was An Eagle, due May 27. So much love for this artist.
Natalie Maines - Mother (Pink Floyd cover)
It’s Cover Friday and my Mother’s visiting. Voila!
I’ve always been a fan of the Dixie Chicks, and I like this new solo album a lot. Give it a spin on Rdio or Spotify.
Our pop music critic Ken Tucker on the title track from Natalie Maines’ new solo album, Mother:
Natalie Maines doesn’t hesitate to make audacious moves, and wresting away “Mother” — Roger Waters’ hymn to oppressive maternal authority figures from Pink Floyd — is the biggest one on her first solo album. Maines takes the “Mother” from Pink Floyd’s The Wall and deconstructs it, emotional brick by emotional brick. She rebuilds the melody and radically alters the vocal intonation of the lyric to render it resilient enough for new interpretations. “Mother” becomes a plea for understanding; to come to terms with difficult relationships through love and trust. Which, among other things, could be heard as Maines’ attempt to reach out to Dixie Chick fans, both present and former, loyal and hostile.
Beyonce ft. Andre 3000 - Back To Black (Amy Winehouse cover)
Best track on the Gatsby soundtrack. That beat is raunchy.
