Song of the day: Warpaint - "Beetles"

Awesome performance.

Cancer Bats to play 6 gigs during one day


Yes, Cancer Bats are set to play 6 gigs at 5 different places during one day. I know it's crazy, but in a good way. However, I am kind of worried if they can make it through the day. They are hardcore band and that means their concerts are full circle pits, mosh pits and walls of death.

Anyway, they are set to perform at these London's clubs:

11.30 - The Old Blue Last
14.00 - Nottingham Hill Arts Club
16.30 - The Garage
19.00 - Brixton Windmill
21.30 - Barfly
00.00 - The Old Blue Last

Funny thing is that if you connect all the clubs with lines, funny thing will show up.

Cancer Bats are also set to release new LP called Dead Set On Living this April. You can also hear new song that was released couple of days ago:

The Killers to release new album this year

Frontman of The Killers Brandon Flowers has told BBC Radio 1′s Zane Lowe that they will release new record this year.

He said following:

“It’s just whether it’s [released in] the summertime or the wintertime. I think the consensus within the band is to take those things that we’ve done well and really hone in on that. We don’t want to make Hot Fuss 2 or Sam’s Town 2, or Day & Age 2. We’ll maybe take all that stuff, the best of all of it and do what we know how to do.”

I am actually kind of excited about this. Also, it is a great thing that these guys will move forward again and not repeat themselves.

I have a feeling that 2012 will be a good year because we have several reunions (Black Sabbath, The Stone Roses, Van Halen and maybe even Pink Floyd) and albums from bands that were on hiatus are coming out.

Biffy Clyro to release double album


Scottish rockers Biffy Clyro have announced that their next studio album will be a double album. They hope it'll come out in April.

Their sixth, yet untitled, follow up to their last successful LP Only Revolutions will be recorded in Los Angeles.

Singer Simon Neil said to Q Magazine:

"We're going over the top as we can. It's an album about a fork in the road and how your decisions can take you on one path or the other. One path is the right decisions and one path is the wrong decisions - and each album's going to represent each path."

It sounds as a great idea, however, I think it is kind of risky move to release double album nowadays. Even though, Biffy Clyro are great and they are popular, I still think it may not be a good move. Anyway, we'll have to wait at least until April to see wether they've done a good move or not.

Meanwhile, you can listen to their mega hit "Bubbles" from their last LP:
