Madina Lake recently ripped it up on the Warped Tour in the US before opening on the main stage at Reading and Leeds. Their latest single, Let’s Get Out Of Here, hit digital stores on August 3.
Muse / Stockholm Syndrome
This track revitalized my love for music. It has this constant build that blows my mind. Even as it changes in dynamic from verse to chorus to verse to bridge, the entire thing builds and gets heavier and heavier throughout. The ultimate pay-off.

The Walkmen are an indie rock band from New York City. The band formed with three members from Jonathan Fire Eater and two members from The Recoys in 2000. They prefer the unique sound of vintage musical instruments, most famously the clangy upright piano, and often recorded at their self-designed recording studio Marcata Recording, which used analog recording equipment before closing in 2006 after Columbia University bought the building that contained Marcata.
Bonnie Prince Billy / Goin’ to Acapulco
He did a remarkable job of putting a unique spin on a classic. It’s no small feat, and it’s really impressive.

Band members ry2K (Ryan Wilock), Beckstein (Jeff Beck formerly of Seismic Crew) and TDB (aka Tommy Causevski) have been establishing themselves on the music scene under a variety of monikers since the early nineties. They eventually came together as The Angry Kids in 2005, under the leadership of ry2k, who founded Popular Records (now owned by EMI) and was responsible for signing, breaking, and marketing gold and multi platinum artists Eiffel 65, Darude, ATB and Tim Deluxe. Success for The Angry Kids came swiftly. In 2006 the band acquired the sampling rights to the retro-classic track I Ran (So Far Away), by A Flock of Seagulls, which was an instant hit selling 80,0000 copies worldwide, and saw the group earn over 1600 plays at US Radio alone.
The Sex Pistols / Nevermind The Bollocks Here’s The Sex Pistols
If you don’t love The Sex Pistols, you don’t know music. The Pistols embodied everything that music should be, and to top it off, all the songs are timeless. Never will the fury they created ever be replicated. There has never been a band as important to music after their implosion. As a tribute to my heroes, I never comb my hair.
