Check this track out called”Never Forget You” by Noisettes off their 2009 album Wild Young Hearts.  Be forewarned, the track is infectious and you will probably have this feel-good tune stuck in your head for a while after listening.  While this London band skews more indie/punk rock, this song brings you back to the doo wop feel good era of music. Enjoy and let me know what you think!

The Naked and Famous

While they are neither naked nor (really) famous, The Naked and Famous is a great post-punk band from New Zealand who really got cranking in 2010 when their debut album hit the market. This track, “Young Blood”, is one of my favorites although there are plenty of gems if you dig this type of music.  If you do like them, peep the track “Punching in a Dream”. Check it out and let me know what you think of this crew!

Who has the fastest selling debut album in British history?

The Beatles? Oasis? Wrong. Wrong.

Arctic Monkeys.

This post punk rock band blew up on the internets in 2004/2005 but not from their own doing, rather because of their fans use of MySpace.  Fans created MySpace pages for the band to share and promote their music which led to the meteoric rise of this group of teenagers from Sheffield, England.  I saw them play in 2007 at Roseland Ballroom in midtown Manhattan and they put together a fantastic live set, sounding much like their recorded album which many people enjoy.  Check out this video below of them playing one of my favorites tracks of their debut album called “Mardy Bum” at the Glastonbury Festival in 2007.
