It’s an election year, so there are ostensibly two camps vying for your attention: 1) those that want you to vote for someone, and 2) those that just plain want you to vote. But the truth may not be that simple. Is there any mistaking what they’re really saying when the National Association of Evangelicals implores you to register? Well, no, because they’ll tell you outright that a vote for Obama is a vote for the Dark Lord, but that’s beside the point.
Anyway, there’s really no question of Wilco and Fleet Foxes political affiliations when they choose Bob Dylan’s ‘I Shall Be Released’ to urge fans to vote. They may be clandestinely pushing Obama here, and that’s fine… after all, if musicians were solidly behind the GOP like back in the day, they’d have gone w/ ‘Don’t Fear the Reaper’. Nevertheless, Wilco and Fleet Foxes played together in Oregon, covered one of the Bard’s choicest songs and have made it available for free download under the condition that you give your name, email address and a pledge to vote in the 2008 election.
Great song, regardless of who you choose to support, though not much can really improve on the Last Waltz. And hey, there are a couple of third party voters, or right-wing outcasts that are counted amongst the Jeff Tweedy faithful (like me, but I’m not telling you whether I’m the former or latter). Whatever your affiliations, Superstarcastic, in solidarity w/ Wilco and Fleet Foxes, urges you to vote, and while you’re at it enjoy some free tunes.
rumour on these here intarwebz is you can pick up a track from every single band playing this year’s SXSW festival right here. hurry up before the powers that be take it down. those bastards.
Xfm.co.uk and The Charlatans have teamed up to make the new Charlatans album, “You Cross My Path”, available for free download. The entire album. Click here to get your virtual hands on it.
A hard format version of the album will also include bonus live and studio tracks and a poster for your bedroom wall. You can pre-order that here.

Cease and Desist orders be damned. Amplive’s Rainydayz Remixes or Radiohead’s “In Rainbows” album can be heard and downloaded for free and won’t land you in the pokey. The eight track releases was done without Radiohead’s involvement, but it now appears that it at least has their blessings.

03 Nudez (ft. Too $hort & MC Zumbi

So, I think 2008’s off to a pretty good start musically. And one of the new acts that I can’t help feeling excited about is Looptron, a.k.a. Neil Sharkey, a laptop-with-guitars musician who’s just released his first EP. (Review forthcoming, as soon as it shows up in my mailbox.)
But in the meantime, please enjoy this super-brand-new track that’s now available for free download via Looptron’s website. It features vocals from Vicar’s Daughter (Sarah Rogers), the singer from London-based electro-soul outfit Moeker. I’m really liking this song so far, and I’m very much looking forward to listening to the full EP.
Looptron vs. Vicar’s Daughter — “Circus”
MP3 Download: Carbon / Silicon - Falun Gong love song
I’ve pretty much always been a fan of Mick Jones. No, not the lead singer of Foreigner. I’m speaking of course of the guitarist and sometimes vocalist of The Clash. I loved The Clash, as all true music fans should. I mostly liked Big Audio Dynamite. Hell, I even regularly listen to his wankiest project, BAD II, which, honestly, wasn’t really wanky at all.
So, in listening to Carbon / Silicon, I’ve already got a biased towards liking it purely because of Jones’ inolvement. C/S finds Jones pairing up with Sigue Sigue Sputnik’s synth bass guitarist, Tony James. The first reaction I had to hearing of this pairing was, ‘Wow, that’s a cool little collaboration they’ve got there.’ but my second reaction was: ‘Wait. I don’t know shit about Sigue Sigue Sputnik. In fact, other than that Love Missle song, I don’t think I know anything by them.’ And I’m willing to bet that’s true for most of you, too. That makes the fact that Jones is putting out new work at 52 years old truly the most thing interesting about this project.
