What do you get when you combine Brazilian electro-pop and English piano-rock? Too many words and a great pop remix definitely worthy of a post. With two giants like Keane and CSS, there isn't really any more background needed…but Keane just released their latest LP titled "Perfect Symmetry" in early October and CSS's "Donkey" was [...]

Never been a huge fan, but I am liking his new work.I like this song and the vid is very cool...

Get ready from a cool cover and a killer tribute to Queen and David Bowie's Under Pressure courtsey of Keane. They nailed it. Great cover!

There's something about the harmonies on "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road." They bring me back to when I was younger and listening to my Mami's radio. She loved herself some Elton John. She always called him "el hombre con las gafas," which translates as the man who wears lots of sunglasses. This is a classic and it gets a modern update thanks to Keane. What an amazing cover. Somewhere Elton and Bern...

Most bands aren't ready to give away entire albums for free, but a good number seem willing to give fans a little teaser of their new work. I think it's a brilliant idea as Sigur Ros's Goobledigook and Coldplay's Violet Hill are two of my recent promo acquisitions. Now Keane is getting in the game with Spiralling off of their forthcoming October release Perfect Symmetry. From now till Augus...

Keane has just debuted their video for brand new single, Spiraling. Is it just me or does it remind you of the recent Anoraak cover artwork come alive? Anyhow, I think this video is great and really does justice to the track. What do you think!?

Against my better judgment I "found" a copy of Keane's new album and try as I might, I find myself really enjoying it. Now I'd first dismissed them as a cheaper TRL friendly Coldplay/Travis/James/Elbow knockoff but somehow they've shucked their adult contemporary image just enough to really make some catchy yet relevant music. The single "Is It Any Wonder?" was the big seller for me since I hea...

Keane -Perfect Symetry (3rd album)Just another Keane album I hear you say......yeah yeah...I was prepared to be underwhelmed... but I read a recent review and thought I would afford it a listen.Well bugger me... a figure of speech only.. lolWhether it was Tim Chaplins surprise rehab visit (this would be the equivalent of Martha Stewart dating Billy Idol...lol) or just plain boredom... Keane ha...

The Helio Sequence was on the bill two nights ago, which pushed us over the edge when it came time to decide whether we wanted to see Keane and Mat Kearney in the historic Tower ...Related posts:The Helio Sequence On Spring Tour With KeaneConcert Review: The Helio Sequence, Ravens and Vultures, Pattern Is MovementVideo: The Helio Sequence - Keep Your Eyes Ahead

To anyone that's heard the new Keane album:Does this album sound like a serious cross between Coldplay and Rufus Wainwright to anyone else?

Let me start off by saying that this is my first encounter with Keane, but I know now that it will not be the last. Now to the review:I headed down to Amoeba with the sole intention of purchasing this album. This is not a common occurance. Usually $13, I found this bad boy in the new arrivals of the used section for $9.99, which after the student discount became $8.99, which after the $2 off co...

Wow! On their first album Keane were an OK band with a few good songs, on their second an OK band with a few brilliant songs, but now they have developed into a fully-fledged acetastic superband, with synths and oohs and a talky bit that sounds like the Pet Shop Boys! Not only could you quite feasibly dance to this, but I'm bopping along without even meaning to. It's like Keane, as produced by ...

So I guess Keane's "postponing" a good bit of their US tour because the frontman, Tom Chapman, is entering rehab. Good game, Tom.

A lot of indie type bands have recently dug back to 80s pop thrills in order to refresh themselves. Well, Mystery Jets did it with quite some aplomb. Keane do it and sound exactly the same as they always did. Why yes, we do have some electronic beats but it just sounds like they've written [...]

I signed on to Myspace today and there was my favourite bulletin in the entire world. Keane Announces N. American Tour Dates.That's right. My favourite boys in the world, no, universe, are coming back and their Los Angeles date was one of the few that were announced.I'm kind of disappointed that it won't be at the Greek, because I love the Greek, and Lauren and I had pit tickets for the Greek...
