The Vaccines - Post Break Up Sex

Unusually for a much hyped major label band, The Vaccines appear to be making credible indie music with a catchy heart to it. Their first big single is getting lots of radio play and it is deserved; a great track which captures a lot of emotion without being dull or cloying.

Only slight problem is the tune being very reminiscent of 'I can't live, if living without you'... so now I keep switching songs!

Ou Est Le Swimming Pool - The Key

Music is sadly filled with legends and stars that died far too young. Having listened to the Ou Est Le Swimming Pool album before I heard about the tragic death of their lead singer meant that finding out was a horrible shock. I think their debut album is brilliant, full of catchy yet emotion twinged tracks. This is possibly my favourite track from it, the video all the more poignant for containing footage from the festival at which the singer tragically died.

Lethal Weapon

Its quite strangehow Lethal Bizzle has become the next big thing in indie. But following his excellent single with Gallows, and their joint tour; he seems likely to fuse Grime and indie just as well as Dizzee before him.
