New Entrants

~I think I've already made my opinion on Falling Down pretty clear. Decent production, terrible vocals, grave-robbing is bad. Also it isn't alt. NEXT!

~California Friends is pretty damn catchy. It reminds me of some older rock songs. The background vocals in the chorus can get a little grating, but aside from that it's a great song. Check it out.

~I like the instrumentation on the newest release from MØ. However, I find her vocals to be quite lacking. Thankfully, she brought in Mark Foster of Foster The People to deliver some great vocals. I hope this does pretty well.

~No blurbs again sorry.
