FLEET FOXES – HELPLESSNESS BLUES
You won’t find a better album to warm yourself during these rain-washed cold evenings! You may add together the warmth of all the crooning lullabies of this world and yet the sum total won’t exceed the warmth this album exudes. Helplessness Blues envelops you in a dreamy hypnotic daze with its inviting harmonies, glinting acoustic riffs, and folk tunes. The beauty of this album will settle like the morning dew onto your head! Every song in this album has plenty of hooks. But the key tracks are Montezuma, Helplessness Blues, and Blue Spotted.

ICEAGE – NEW BRIGADE
Danish Quartet Iceage is the odd one out among the crop of bands buzzing the new wave music scene. In their latest album New Brigade, they give you punk numbers that pack the meaty whoosh of hardcore, coupled with wailed neuroses and the racket of post-punk. It may strike you as strange that their average age is not more than 17. New Brigade’s Elias Rønnenfelt is reminiscent of Joy Division’s Ian Curtis. From the very first song, this album doesn’t take its feet off full throttle, while at the same time nursing a ragged fever to it. If you like punk, this album is yours to treasure!
