Raveonettes keep Raving on..

Ahhh, a new Raveonettes album that hits the spot, yet misses on some. I love melodic noise, feedback and any band that even remotely sounds like The Jesus and Mary Chain and The Raveonettes do their best to fill that void missing in today's mainstream music.
   The first side, song one, "Recharge and Revolt" I fell in love with immediately, but then the album kinda takes a mish mash twist. The Raveonettes are at their best when mixing 50's style guitar with dark lyrics and gobs of noise and this album has only a few songs that stay true to their form. That said, you have to branch out to evolve and they do that here. I'm sure it will grow on me more and more in time because they're one of my favorite bands.

The Love Me Nots release "Thringle"

Phoenix based band and one of my favorites have released "Thringle" a 3 song preview of their upcoming album "The Demon and the Devotee". The songs are just of taste of what's to come. I've heard the album many times and it represents the band on a whole new level. Try not to get these 3 songs stuck in your head, I dare you! Available online at cdbaby.com/cd/lovemenots4 for $2
