Lily Allen - Cheryl Tweedy



Released: 2006
Download It

It looks like the predictable hipster backlash has begun, but they're a bunch of fucken fags.

For some reason, this track didn't make it onto the album, but it's actually better than half of it.

Here's a pic of Cheryl Tweedy.

Bez - Bitcheshos

Released: 2004
Download It



A modern classic.
A brilliant take on a subject man has grappled with since beyond memory.
This haiku like track builds texture upon texture, layer upon layer, taking the listener to familiar yet dizzyingly strange vistas and tableaus culminating in what can only be described as an aural money shot.

Muse - Starlight

Released: 2006
Download It



Yea, Muse have gone way over the top, but coincidentally have finally released an album that I actually enjoy.

This track sounds a bit like Tears For Fears. It's awesome.

Thom Yorke - Black Swan

Released: 2006
Download It



It might be a bit Kid-A lite, but this is an improvement over the Radiohead-does-Radiohead pastiche of Hail To the Thief.

More solo albums please Thom.

The Smiths ft. Sandie Shaw - Hand In Glove

Released: 1984
Download It



Only Moz would stalk faded 60s icon Sandie Shaw with incessant letters and postcards until she finally agreed to sing on a track with his up-and-coming band.

The result? An improvement on the original!
