I’ve held off posting about Girls because of certain reservations I had about them. Specifically, I can’t listen to the lead singer’s voice for a long period of time. But whenever I do sit down to listen to their album, Album, I’m not overwhelmed or blown away, as their 9.1 Pitchfork rating might imply.I will [...]

Kenny & Kyle – Poker Face (Lady GaGa Cover)Tags: Lady Gaga, South ParkRelated postsWhy I Can’t Wait For Kanye West and Lady GaGa’s Tour Dates Announcement (9)What’s Going [...]

Speakers opens to distortion, faceless moans and the words “silicone, saline, poison, inject me baby. I’m a free bitch, I’m a free bitch”. This is how Lady GaGa kicks off her most intricate and engaging song yet.The tremendous chorus, “baby loves to dance in the dark, cos when he’s looking she falls apart” is heartbreaking [...]

This song got me dancing the second it exploded in my face, which is a plus in my book. I pretty much couldn't stop moving some body part while sitting in my chair at my desk. It's definitely got a very catchy and feel-good vibe to it. I can just imagine a large [...]

How do you remix a nearly 10-minute epic journey in high-life pop? Remix master Fred Falke seems to think he knows how. Silly Fred. I don’t think I can honestly tell anyone that Falke’s remix of Music Go Music’s “Warm In The Shadows” improved upon the song or its dance appeal.Music Go Music – Warm [...]

New Spoon! “The Mystery Zone” is another taste of Spoon’s forthcoming album, Transference. Indie superstar and Spoon ringleader, Britt Daniel, has announced that Transference is a “pure” Spoon album, being the first album the band self produced.“The Mystery Zone” will be third track found on the hotly anticipated LP. “Got Nuffin’,” the lead track off [...]

I’ve been listening to a lot of happy music this month. That’s a trend I don’t want to end just yet, and it’s a trend that Wolf Gang perpetuates with excellent single “The King And All Of His Men.”Think the glitzy pop of The Killers without the self-seriousness, or MGMT minus the heavy beats (maybe [...]

“Highrises In Brooklyn” is a nice coffeehouse lounger that will surely please those disappointed with Regina Spektor’s latest album- or at least fill the gap until her next. Up-and-comer Kelley McRae is one of those likable, smart pop-folksters who is easy on the ears and makes for a very pleasant listen. She played at Barnes [...]

Basement Jaxx make quirky house music, and the bass bumping throughout new track “My Turn” certainly won’t challenge the assumption. That said, “My Turn” isn’t just a banger to drop on the late night. Although Basement Jaxx tracks can sometimes feel like the guest vocalist is there just to be there, Devonte Hynes [...]

You know that we at PMA love almost any grandiose, orchestral, too-fun-for-its-own-good pop song. Especially if that song has an “ooo” or an “ahh” in it somewhere.That said, it’s pretty obvious that we love Fred’s “Damn You Hollywood,” a dynamic, epic track from a band that seems to have quietly garnered tons of attention and [...]

I’ve had about a week or so to let the shock of “Russian Roulette” to settle, and you know what? I bought it on iTunes just yesterday. Why the sudden change of heart? Letting go of dreams of more Umbrella’s and Disturbia’s, I listened to this new side of Rihanna. Muumuse coins it best, “Rihan-noir.”Rihan-noir [...]

The first thing I am going to say to you is, just listen to this song now. That is a clear demand, and if you do not do, so you are completely missing out on one of the best songs of the year. "When You Walk Into The Room" is a clear anthem for love that [...]

My Gold Mask, comprised of drummer/vocalist Gretta Rochelle and guitarist Jack Armondo, are going to be the hot new thing. They’ve got that BRKLYN hipster style, and two person bands are all the rage now (No Age, Japandroids, etc.). That said, if My Gold Mask blows up, it won’t be undeserved.The track “Violet [...]

Max Tundra, nee Ben Jacobs, is a very nice person, I’m sure, and his song, the Laurel & Hardy-esque titled “Which Song,” is a perfectly nice song, and Passion Pit’s remix is full of the lo-fi, uplifting beats and synth-sounds that made Manners so much fun. Still, it’s not a good sign when the main [...]

Dirty Projectors just released an EP for their track “Temecula Sunrise” that will also include another Bitte Orca track “Cannibal Resource”. From the EP, we do receive two exclusive tracks that did not make it on their album release. Unfortunately for those Stateside, the EP is only being released in the UK, but we do have [...]

VV Brown transforms Beyonce’s Pitchfork-adored “Crazy In Love” into a pumped-up, folksy flurry of energy. It’s the latest track in her series of live covers. Past covers include Kid Cudi’s “Day N Nite” and Drake’s “Best I’ve Ever Had.” Her frantic rendition of “Crazy In Love” is easily the best of the bunch and has [...]

Last night’s episode of Gossip Girl relied heavily (more than usual) on its music. It also featured plenty of low-key gems to keep you going until next week’s episode. One of the most impressive playlists on the series.Gossip Girl, Season 3, Episode 8: The Grandfather: Part IIThe Plastiscines – I Could Rob YouQuitzow – New [...]
