[Watch] Bat For Lashes - "Laura" (Official Video)
Natasha Khan has just announced a brand new Bat For Lashes album that's titled The Huanted Man. It comes packaged in this kind of NSFW looking cover and is set for release, on October 15th in the UK via Parlophone/EMI and in the US just a week later on the 23rd via Capitol.
Along with the announcement comes a video for the track "Laura" which features on the forthcoming LP. Check it out at the top and look out for more cuts hitting the net in the coming months.
[Listen] Black Moth Super Rainbow - "Windshield Smasher"
Finally after 2 long years we now have a set release date for Black Moth Super Rainbow's forthcoming LP Cobra Juicy. The album is set for release October 9th via the group own label, Rad Cult and to celebrate the announcement, Tobacco and crew have let loose the first single from the new album titled "Windshield Smasher". The song definitely sounds more like a Tobacco solo track due to it's dark soundscape than a BMSR song, but Tobaxx did announce that the new album would sound different from previous BMSR releases and more like a "demon skater".
Check out the new track below and then head over to the band's Kickstarter to pre-order the new LP. You can also read about the band's Kickstarter here. Enjoy creatures.
[Listen] Mariachi El Bronx - "Little Boxes" (Malvina Reynolds Cover)
Today on my lunch break I sat down, cracked open my lunch and hit play on Showtime's hit show Weeds. Into its eighth season, it's had some ups and downs over the years but I was glad this year when they brought back the old feel in the title sequence with the various cover versions of Malvina Reynolds' "Little Boxes. I was very happy and a little surprised today to hear Mariachi El Bronx rattling through my headphones whilst the credits rolled and I began to stuff my face. Check out their upbeat take on the classic track below.
Antiquiet also points out that the likes of Ben Folds, Mountain Goats and Dierks Bentley will also see out the season with some more covers.

[News] Kanye's G.O.O.D. Music Album Due Out in September
Kanye West albums are no strangers to delays, hell, both My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy and Watch the Throne were both delayed numerous times. It shouldn't come as a surprise, then, that the G.O.O.D. Music album Cruel Summer has been pushed back from its previous August 7th release to September 4th (via Def Jam). Mark your calendars, but be wary, chances are it could get delayed again, but at that point they would need to change the name of the album to Cruel Fall or even Cruel Winter.
Stream both of the Cruel Summer singles, "Mercy" and "New God Flow", below.
[Listen] 2 Chainz feat. Kanye West - "Birthday Song"
Thanks to Kanye West, former Playaz Circle member 2 Chainz has gone from underground ATL rapper to G.O.O.D. Music staple, and now the former is even guest spotting for the latter. 2 Chainz is set to drop his debut LP Based On A T.R.U. Story on August 14th, and "Birthday Song" is the first of three promotional singles for the album. With Ye dropping a verse, even providing production duties with help from Sonny Digital, this is a good sign of what is to come from 2 Chainz's debut release.
The next promotional singles will be released on July 31st and August 7th.
[Listen] SBTRKT - "Gloss"
After a short hiatus (it was May when he last graced us with a new track), SBTRKT is back with a brand new cut titled "Gloss". The three-minute track is very minimalist, but it works so well in this situation. Simple synth repetitions and subtle percussion make this perfectly fitting for those late nights. Stream it below (via SoundCloud).
