Santigold ft. Karen O - GO!

 

Finally!  It's been like 11 summers since we had a new Santigold joint.
Only wish there was a little more Karen O in that thing, because both of these women are on my "list".  This is gonna sound right on some proper speakers, though.

Oddly enough, it's Jay-Z's now lifestyle site that got the "leak"*.  Check it.

* "leak" is the 2nd most misused word in the English language.  Right behind "literally"

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Heads Will Roll (Passion Pit Remix)

I feel like you should know these things.

NME is being cheap with the embed code.
Have at it.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Zero (MSTRKRFT Remix)

Zero (MSTRKRFT Remix) - Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Holy shit, today has been boring!
I was hoping for some new fire to carry me into the weekend. Or at least something new to play excessively loud as I make my grand entrance to the Giants Stadium parking lot tomorrow night for the RedBulls home opener, but noooooooo. At this rate, I'll be bangin' some old Boys Noize and pounding one of them $6 bottles of Brugal on my way in (not that I'm complaining).

But I digress . . .

This is pretty decent though. I'm especially a fan of the smooth bit that kicks in at the 2:00 mark. Now that I think about it, the breakdown in the middle is almost always my favorite part of this kinda jam. Go figure.

(Side note: How the hell is this the first time that I've mentioned MSTRKRFT on this blog?? That can't be right . . .can it?)

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Zero

It's growing on me . . .but I'm still not there yet.
I can't bring myself to check it out yet (still too nervous), but It's Blitz is streaming in its entirety on YYY's MySpace page.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Yeah! New York

Because old jams help me get over the nervous breakdown I'm approaching as It's Blitz nears its release date. I can't explain how badly my Spring/Summer need for that album to be dope.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Heads Will Roll

Alright...
I am now officially terrified of this album.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Zero

I'm a huge YYYs fan, so I was insanely nervous to click play once I saw this song posted. I had no idea what to expect. First singles are always a risky proposition.

So . . .

Can't say I'm really feeling this...but not liking a lead single isn't a rare occurrence for me, so I'm not going to panic . . .yet.

Because I REALLY miss Yeah Yeah Yeahs.
Because Karen O. is made of sex.
Because the bridge made me go out and buy a guitar that I still can't play.
