The Wombats
Let’s Dance To Joy Division
Simple lyrics... yet such a dance-able tune! Murphs vocals (When they work, see the news section and my comment) + Tord's beefy basslines + Dan's rhythmic drumming = A recipe for sucess. Let's Dance...

The Maccabees
Toothpaste Kisses
Lurve this song...it's one of my faves off the album. 'I'll win your heart with a woo woo' is a great line and everybody in the ground whistles at gigs. I't Orlando's solo song and it's fantastic....

The Wombats
Moving To New York
It's amazing. Love the tune, really danceable. Although not the same dance factor as 'Let's Dance To Joy Division', it's still great- lyrics, instrumentals and the video is creative. Love the...

The Ting Tings
Great DJ
Great tune, and the ah ah ah's and e's e's e's are a sure singalong. However does anyone think the opening sounds like and ABBA song?? just a thought......

The Hives
We Rule The World (T.H.E.H.I.V.E.S)
"WELCOME" ...The beginning of this song makes you feel like you're walking into a hives gig. They are quite literally an awesome band who i'm lucky enough to be going to see, and i reckon they should...

Operator Please
Get What You Want
They are Australia's Be Your Own Pet, and likewise are awesome.Typical line up of bass, guitar and drums, but mixed in with keyboard and an erm...violin, makes for great things, and 'Get What You...

Vampire Weekend
A-Punk
A brill track from the New Yorkers. The guitar is so twinkly and cute, lyrics are so simple yet effective and the video is creative. piphenry you haven't got a clue mate. Like Operator Please this is...

The Cribs
I'm A Realist
I don't think it tops 'Man's Needs' but it is still another great single from the Wakefield trio. 'Man's Needs, Women's Needs, Whatever' is simply great album and this single proves it. The video...

Hot Chip
Ready For The Floor
Hot Chip...great band. Ready For The Floor...great single. Sure to be better than Over and Over. My Dad doesn't like it though just because in the video Alexis wears a suit which is half grey half...

Envy And Other Sins
Highness
I think the above review is a bit harsh, I thought Envy and Other Sins being re-voted back into MobileAct was unfair to the bands who'd got through every round to get to the final, such as Revenue...

Morrissey
That’s How People Grow Up
Another wonderfully written track from Mozza. Yeah he's getting old but he's still got it. His performance on Jools Holland a few weeks ago shows that his tracks are still as epic as ever and 'That's...

MGMT
Time To Pretend // Columbia
A strangely listenable tune. Uses a good combination of synth and sound effects for the perfect glowstick swingin anthem. A very fresh new act, are MGMT, and will be this years Klaxons. MGMT, Late Of...

Late Of The Pier
The Bears Are Coming
Amazing. Didn't like them at first, but after gradual listening every so often, 'The Bears Are Coming' is now one of my favourite tracks of the moment. It's a Klaxons song, being mashed up with sound...

Panic At The Disco
Nine In The Afternoon // Decaydance
Such a nice happy track. It's amazing how much a band can change. From cabaret to Beatles in just a few years. I think the album will be a potential...

The Enemy
This Song Is About You // Warners
Good band, great tunes. This is a highly epic song and think it would be amazing live if The Enemy ever headlined a festival, or just got to the main stage. It adds a second ballad to the setlist...

The Futureheads
The Beginning Of The Twist // NUL
Great tune, and a more rock direction it seems? They've lost the harmonising, such as what was in Hounds of Love. A catchy lil' number, and the bow tie??? If that's what he wants to attire in, leave...

The Last Shadow Puppets
The Age Of The Understatement
The Last Shadow Puppets sound nothing like Muse. It's a stomping track, and their voices are so well matched. Did anyone else struggle to tell who was who in the video though??? Seperated at...

Make Model
The LSB
An average tune. Saw them supporting The Fratellis on tour. The LSB is one of their better songs, the best one in the set they did. Is it just me, or does one of the guitarists look like Miles Kane...

The Wombats
Backfire At The Disco
ANTHEM!!!! Go on youtube and type in Backfire at the Paintball Ranch...well...

The Ting Tings
That’s Not My Name
'...they call me STAC-EEE' Best line in the songs...you can say it with such attitude! Better than Great DJ...This years dance...

The Fratellis
Mistress Mabel
Already stuck in my head!Wa different to their old stuff...a bit of the rock aspect has gone...but still as catchy as...

The Pigeon Detectives
This Is An Emergency
Great single...let's hope the rushed album is just as...

Panic At The Disco
That Green Gentleman
Good new release from the boys. Just as good as Nine in the Afternoon, and just shows how extreme musical direction change can make a band better. Love the album...
Thu 19 Jun, 2008
Justice
DVNO
Another good tune, there's no way you cannot dance to this. It's just as good as D.A.N.C.E and We Are Your Friends (with SMD), if not better. The video's pretty good...
Thu 19 Jun, 2008
MGMT
Electric Feel
Great new tune. Just as good as 'Time to Pretend'. Got a bit of deja vu though, i'm sure i've heard bits of the song in other songs...anyone agree or am i just going...

The Courteeners
No You Didn't, No You Don't
Didn't like the courteeners to begin with, but then my Dad slipped it onto my iPod without me knowing and after a few good reviews i couldn't resist a listen. Good song, but i think i prefer...

Rihanna
Take A Bow
As bad as every other single she's released. Sorry but she needs to give up. Her stage clothes are disgusting, and her voice is so...
Sat 28 Jun, 2008
Black Kids
Hurricane Jane
Another wickedy catchy song from the 'Kids. I have major love for them. I think this is better than the first single...a guaranteed dancefloor...
Sat 28 Jun, 2008
The Rascals
Freakbeat Phantom
A great track. Really catchy and gets stuck in your head for days. Don't think they quite match the standards set by Arctics and his other band Last shadow...
