Rob throws out first Peter Murphy, “more gloom form the ex-singer of Bauhaus.” Here’s him performing “The Prince and Old Lady Shade” live from his upcoming album, Ninth. That hits June 7th.
Direct link for the feedreaders.
Ninth is available for pre-order as a CD from Amazon.
Here’s a pick from me…it’s Awesome Wells and the song “Luchadora.” That’s from the album Carry on Awesome Wells.

The song’s apparently been out for a while but the album’s just been released via MP3 download on Amazon.
The Vincent Black Shadow “Metro” from the album Fears In the Water. I like it because it’s got a slightly more frantic No Doubt vibe going on and that’s why I throw it into the mix.
Direct link for the feedreaders.
The album’s available from Amazon as both a CD and MP3 download. Here’s a tip: the album is out of print on CD and cheap as hell (we’re talking less than a dollar…so that’s your best bet, friends).

And we’ve talked about this various places on the site…it’s Rome, the supergroup that’s Danger Mouse and Daniele Luppi with an assist from Jack White (see below) and Norah Jones. As Rob states, it’s a “collection of songs influenced by Italian film soundtracks and spaghetti Westerns.”

The CD is available for pre-order, out later this month. The MP3 single of this song is out and available via MP3 download.
Rob also throws you Bel Canto. This is “Unicorn” from the album Shimmering Warm and Bright. He terms it “A cool breeze from Norway.” Indeed.

That’s available as an MP3 download from Amazon. The CD is out of print, but you can get it used on Amazon for super-cheap. I would go that way if you were so inclined.
And lastly, we’ve got Rob throwing some classic stuff your way from The Cure. He recommends Staring at the Sea: The Singles. I do concur, it’s a fine album. He proclaims: “If you only get one Cure record get this collection of their early singles!” This is “The Hanging Garden.”

This is also available as a used CD from Amazon for really damn cheap.
