New Music Videos: Oasis and Kings of Leon

BuzzSugar — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 08:30:13 -0800

Interested in some moody, soul-searching tunes and visuals to match? Well, I have just the thing for you today by way of two moody, soul-searching bands.

First up, a new video from Kings of Leon for the song "Use Somebody" off the Kings' new album, Only By the Night. The video cuts from a close-up of lead singer Caleb Followill pouring his heart out to shots of the band playing for live audiences, practicing at rehearsal, hanging out shooting pool, and heating things up between Caleb (well, I think it's him) and one lucky ~~groupie~~ lady. I just saw this band live in San Francisco, and the performance of this song gave me chills in person. The video definitely does the tune justice.

The second video is from Oasis for their single "I'm Outta Time" off the band's Dig Out Your Soul, which is out now. I think I'll leave the description to the MySpace folks, because it's funny: "Liam on a surreal journey through a moon-lit English landscape. Subtly psychedelic!" The black-and-white visuals are pretty with or without the sound on, in my opinion.

Ready to watch? Just read more.

What to Download: New Music on iTunes

BuzzSugar — Tue, 07 Oct 2008 14:30:45 -0700

Tuesdays are big in entertainmentville: Not only do all the new DVD releases hit Netflix, but new music also pours into stores, including iTunes. So I take a spin through each week's iTunes music releases and pick out some albums and tracks worthy of a download. In addition to the songs and albums below ,you can also download the new Oasis and Deerhoof albums.

Six years in the making: Pretenders singer Chrissie Hynde may be 57 years old, but her voice still sounds amazingly intact. That's a huge part of why most critics are giving this new album the thumbs-up. Are you ready to rock? Then download "Boots of Chinese Plastic" and the title track, "Break Up the Concrete."

Hip-hop with an accent: The Streets is one British guy named Mike Skinner whose rhythms and rhymes I've been enjoying for years now. I was surprised to find he has a new album out today, and from what I've heard so far, I'm really digging it. These new songs are sunnier than he usually is, and I'm thinking about adding "The Escapist" and "I Love You More (Than You Like Me)" to my collection.

One more after the jump, so read more.

Song writing: Rachael Yamagata's new album is a double-disc set that starts out with pretty but sad break-up songs and ends with catchy but angry break-up songs. I'm loving the whole thing so far, but if you just want a taste, I recommend the melancholy "Elephants," the gorgeous "Horizon," and the hard-driving "Faster."
