new releases for 5/19
May 18, 2009
this is not a very spectacular comeback of my “new releases” posts, but it’s decent. IAMX is definitely worth your time and money, and the rest are good as well. I can’t really speak for the tori amos though, i like some of her older stuff, but i haven’t heard this whole album yet so i’m not comfortable fully endorsing it.
hopefully this is the first of many more “new release” posts to come, and hopefully the releases will get better. i know of one that will top all of these… THE MARS VOLTA- OCTAHEDRON due out june 23rd!! can’t wait.
tori amos- abnormally attracted to sin (listen)

IAMX- kingdom of welcome addiction (listen)

iron and wine- around the well (listen)

white rabbits- it’s frightening (listen)

new IAMX song, “think of england”
November 7, 2008

the always fabulous IAMX, former sneaker pimps frontman, has released a new single; a taste of his upcoming new album (no date or title yet). the new song, “think of england” is a very powerful song. this song is a composite of the same great formula chris has always used, but more epic. his slow, seductive songs have wonderful draw, but songs like “think of england” evoke a passion on a par with all of the air leaving your lungs and your stomach dropping when you get that stroke of inspiration and impulsiveness to do something you didn’t even know you were capable of. this song brings to mind some of the better moby songs and vast as well.
listen to and download “think of england” here.
