[Indie] Tango In The Attic – Mona Lisa Overdrive

Tango In The Attic return to record stores with their sophomore album “Sellotape” on May 28th and if new single “Mona Lisa Overdrive” is anything to go by it’s going to be a noisier affair than their 2010 debut. Catchy and confident they now swagger with a more direct garage sound whilst still maintaining the afro-pop qualities of their previous endeavors.

The Walkmen – We Can’t Be Beat

“We Can’t Be Beat” serves as another reminder as to why we’re so excited for The Walkmen’s forthcoming sixth album “Heaven”. Building from a delicate, acoustic intro into a heart-warming crescendo, the spacious arrangement of “We Can’t Be Beat” allows Hamilton Leithauser’s vocals to take center stage and steal our hearts.

“Heaven” is out May 29th on Fat Possum

[Fresh] Oberhofer – Runaway (Kanye West)

When a band like Oberhefer, with their hazy indie electronic instrumentation, decides to take on a Kanye song, one can’t stop but wonder of the result. Releasing an official recording covering Runaway, Oberhofer gives us a heavily layered shoegaze version that while may not sound as honest as the original, it still provides an quality rendition.

[TV Soundtrack] House Season 8 Episode 20 ‘Post Mortem’ Songs

House Season 8 Episode 20 ‘Post Mortem’ featured two really great tracks worth mentioning. While this season of House is going the ‘Monster of the Week’ route than having a bigger overall story arc, the show still remains strong contender among prime-time drama series.

Opening scene as they carefully take care of the deceased woman, Gareth Dunlop with “Trick of the moonlight” was playing in the background.

’Gareth Dunlop – Trick Of The Moonlight’

And obviously the big weeper at the end when we find out someone from Team House is leaving the hospital, we had Kathleen Edwards’s A Soft Place To Land softy whispering in the background.

Season 8 Episode 20 ‘Post Mortem’ of the Tv show House MD had an amazing soundtrack collection and we have not been disappointed with the picks since.
