Bat for Lashes opened for Radiohead earlier this week in London, and they were awesome!! This music video for Whats a Girl To Do is very popular and totally wacky.

(Too cool!) Harvard square version of Vampire Weekend, listen below.
Parisian indie bands are the new thing. They dress like Pete Doherty, sing like the Clash, and look like Jane Birkin. The Plastiscines are a female quartet of coolness and their songs are catchy enough that it doesn’t matter if we can’t understand what they’re saying. Second Sex, The Plastiscines male counter part, have the best hair since Paul Simonon. Get the compilation of both bands on the album Paris Calling. We love these les bebes rockers.

Felix da Housecat, born Felix Stallings, is the DJ from Chicago who began spinning as a fifteen-year-old after being introduced to legendary House music pioneer DJ Pierre. We like Felix’s Silver Screen Shower Scene and his remix of Nina Simone’s Sinnerman. 
GANG OF FOUR Like many good new wavish bands of the 80s these boys are English lads from Leeds who were together from 1977-1984 and specialized in the post-punk alt sounds. Members Jon King, Andy Gill, Dave Allen, and Hugo Burnham reunited in 2004. Fans include Sofia Coppola who mixed some of the Gang for Marie Antoinette.
THE (ENGLISH) BEATFormed in Birmingham, England in 1978 the Beat mixes the sounds of pop and ska with punk, soul, reggae. The multi-race sextet made the charts in the early 80s with hits like Mirror In the Bathroom, Save It For Later and I Confess.
