weapons of massive consumption

Of all the albums coming / that have came out this year, Lily Allen was on the top of my list, and has been making her way even farther up.

Three tracks from her upcoming album Stuck On The Naughty Step have been posted/leaked, and here they are for listen (or two). I love them all, but my favorite is I Don’t Know by far. (GWB is the only high quality one—the other two are webrips).


I Don’t Know — In my eyes, I Don’t Know is sort of like a sequal to Everything’s Just Wonderful. Both songs have a similar feel to them, with straightforward lyrics that hit on personal and public issues. The combination of guitar, pausing beats, and spacey synths make it really easy to listen to (and love).


GWB (Fuck You Very Much) — Haha. Guess Who Batman! The first thing I thought of when I heard this was the themesong to that show CrankYankers. They both have a sort of Mr. Rogers / Childrens show melody to them, except GWB is a bit more mature, what with all it’s “fuck you’s” and such.


I Could Say — I love the piano in this song, and overall it is just a pretty tune with a fun beat to it. It’s definitely an IWABFSFM song.

New music time! This was instantly my new jam. Lady GaGa’s electropopsynthdance album is due out this year. I can’t wait @_@

tunes on friday

Alright, I’m going to try to limit this to once a week (although, the way I go through music, I’m not so sure it’ll stay that way). You’d be lucky if there was one post a month here that wasn’t me preaching about what you should listen to. Anywho, here’s a lineup of my favorite songs this week:

ALANIS MORISSETTE - UNDERNEATH
Another amazing track by Alanis. From what I’ve heard, I can say the same exact thing about her album. She’s managed to stay herself, and pump out new songs which are catchy

LADYTRON - TOMORROW
Although not the lead single off Velocifero, it’s still my favorite…or at least for now. Sure, I like Ghost, but this song seemed easier to fall in love with. The same as Witching Hour, this album is full of etheral synths and reverberated vocals, with a beautiful cover.

LIGHTS - ICE
I am so in love with this girl. I know my friends are sick of hearing it—and hearing me listening to it, but I can’t get enough of this song (or any of her songs, really). Her call-to-fame is providing music to the spring/summer Old Navy tv spots (and providing herself in the last ad), so there’s a good chance you’ve heard her.

PUSSYCAT DOLLS - WHEN I GROW UP
Don’t judge me. Okay, judge me. I am a sucker for a terrible pop song, especially if it is a. fierce or b. catchy. When I Grow Up is both, not very surprising when coming from PCD. I’m expecting this song to blow up on the radio this summer and be on the top of every 15 year old’s iTunes, just like all their other singles.

I have a ton of other things I keep putting on repeat, but you’ll just have to wait til next week. (Possibly as soon as tomorrow. Just kidding. …Maybe.)
