Love It or Leave It: TV on the Radio Covering Bowie's "Heroes"
Normally, I'm nowhere near as fond of a cover as I am of the original song (few people are, I'd wager). Usually they just sound like cheap knockoffs. So I expected little of TV on the Radio's cover of David Bowie's "Heroes," and maybe that's partially why I liked it so much.

Scarlett Johansson's Album Might Actually Be Good
When I first heard that Scarlett Johansson was recording an album of Tom Waits covers, I didn't quite know what to think. Sure, she proved she could sing when she joined Jesus and Mary Chain onstage at Coachella, but Waits's music seemed like an odd — and challenging — choice for the actress.
Now, Pitchfork has revealed some new details about the album, and it actually sounds quite promising.
Adult Swim Gives Away Free, Awesome Music
I still associate Adult Swim more with off-color, late-night cartoons than with indie rock. That may change, however, if Warm & Scratchy is any indication. The free, downloadable album is stocked full of new, rare or exclusive tracks from The Good, The Bad and the Queen, TV on the Radio, Les Savy Fav, Broken Social Scene and 10 other awesome bands.
Wrap-Up: BuzzSugar's Top 20 Albums of 2006
Not every year can be a great year for music, and 2006 was just okay. It didn't help that this year was sandwiched between 2005—which gave us great albums by Kanye West, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, and Sufjan Stevens—and 2007, which promises new releases from Wilco, Arcade Fire, and Timbaland.
Thankfully, I managed to scour enough of the year's music to bring you BuzzSugar's Top 20 Albums of 2006.
BuzzSugar's Top Albums of 2006: Part IV
Not every year can be a great year for music, and 2006 was just okay. It didn't help that this year was sandwiched between 2005—which gave us great albums by Kanye West, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, and Sufjan Stevens—and 2007, which promises new releases from Wilco, Arcade Fire, and Timbaland. While choosing my Top 10 for the year was a cinch, coming up with the bottom 10 was tough.

Don't stop partying: I'll resist doing a full-on album review for Weezer's Raditude; it's tempting, because I've always been a fan and have much to say about the band's transformation over the last 15 years.
