Musical Musings #1

 It’s Tuesday, so that means much musical musings must be mentioned. There will be no reviews, just news. Join me, if you will.  Click more. Or else.

Well, for you trip hop fans, Portishead have, today, unleashed their first single in what seems to be an eternity. The track, entitled “Machine Gun,” is just about what you would expect from Portishead. The beats fire off like a machine gun and singer Beth Gibbons lays it down just as great as ever. Great track.

Gnarls Barkley have pushed up the release of their sophomore album, The Odd Couple, from April 8th to literally right now. You can d/l  it or go purchase it at select stores. Haven’t heard it yet, but intend to in the coming days.

Now time for the great news. The Raconteurs have announced their second album Consolers of the Lonely and will be released next week. Wait, what?! Next week! That’s right. They wanted it to hit everyone at the exact same time to let you make up your own mind. I’m am insanely excited as I love their first album Broken Boy Soldiers. I will absolutely [not] be searching for a torrent every second of every day. Once that bitch drops, I’ll give my insights.

That’s really the only interesting tidbits to happen in the past few days. Bye!
