Hip Hop Anthems 2010
Single Reviews July 26 press
SOHO VELVET – Jesus Stole My Girlfriend
We will send shockwaves throughout the entire music industry here: Grunge was stupid. There. I've said it! Sure, Nirvana released a few good songs (through the looting of the Pixies back catalog), but it was nothing special.
This is what it is. Grunge greasy. As if the Smashing Pumpkins were Australia, were young again and had the ability to grow a little hair, were a bit more and began to cover Shouty Ugly Kid Joe records! Sounds horrible right? The initial reaction to this was, as you can imagine, one of the attractions – laughing at the silly band looking for … but the chorus kicked in and eventually decided to grow his hair and never use shampoo again. That is fine, with added fat!
PLAN B – Praying
Electric Banana are still in shock about of how everything has gone well for the Plan B in 2010! It just seems like yesterday when we were listening to his debut and dirt we fear in the sweary irregular and hip-hop acoustic sound that was like GBH both his guitar and our poor eardrums.
The third single is full preacher mode testimony soul – like a stranger Aretha Franklin, delivering strong double-edged song that works perfectly as both a stimulant Northern Soul Gospel driven anthem and sad – but with an added bite. The song is about being in prison, so many of our readers will be able to associate themselves with the letters. You yobbo bunch of thieves!
Marina & the Diamonds – Oh No!
Oh, no! Returns to haunt shameless pop Electric Banana with a horrible memory – as some of our eagle-eyed readers would have noticed that first broke on the scene called 'Maria' for the first couple of months. FAIL! However, with our professional reputation now in ruins, sea back with a decent single, and his name spelled correctly.
The track takes the same opposition peculiar to the pop scene (strangely reminiscent went from Barbie Girl by Aqua), which marks both the material of the Navy, added with a hip / hop angle – that Katie is a bit like Perry, not only very very good.
Katie Melua – a happy place
Young Katie Melua here is very interesting visually. But in the past this has been ruined by the kind of music that his mother is more likely to hear, that is boring. However, this is slightly better than I had expected – a kind of Kate Bush/1980s-sque of way.
A happy place, the last single, is proof of it a new direction but boring € "an alt-pop offering that is the singer expresses his dismay over the 21-century pressures on strike strings, synths and percussion military style – Which certainly is not getting Melua (softer) with age! It's almost enough to forgive her for writing this with sod Guy Chambers. The git.
Amy Macdonald – The pretty face
Amy Macdonald is the new single of "celebrities" on modern day become famous, especially just appearance (Paris Hilton – the famous face of the brand of cannabis) is a good example.
This sounds like a pop radio version of a very soft 2 Liberines Weather "A Hero, but obviously sung by a Scottish girl. Macdonald has done a pretty face, but this song is sad not to go look on the cover of a magazine. Awwww. Why? Amy Travis biggest inspiration are, so I know this is highly unlikely that the soundtrack to a riot. Also, you really do not want ugly people in the magazines right?
TOM JONES – I worried / Strange Things
What's new pussycat? Well, old fool, Tom Jones is still in its ambition to appear in the title role of a new version of 'Santa Claus: The Movie'. Have you seen him? Welsh is a silver fox right now! We admire that. Electric Banana is fully compatible with its refusal to use Just for Men products. Bravo.
I worried strumming contemplative vocal Jones stripped back on some wonderful banjo licks that sound like Mumford & Sons have attracted the attention of Mr. Jones. Perhaps only half of the praise was not hit by a Tom Jones song? Strange things Yes it is a decent offer Souly Dylan-esque. Still flatly refuse to throw our clothes inside of it … that can only be very grateful!
SWEDISH House Mafia feat Pharrell Williams
- One
This is already one of the most important tunes of the year the club – apparently – but really have no idea if this is true. Swedish House Mafia (what kind of name is that?) Finally move to the release of the filling of a dance (Your Name) with the voice of The Neptunes / NERD (not a female tennis star) Pharrell Williams.
The track is very heavy on Ibiza style elements that have most readers electrical outlets accumulation Banana … but fortunately it is not something a little more to stop us off before the song has ended.
