Couple of days ago, YouTube star Lana Del Rey released new music video for her track "National Anthem". The video is full of ironies and metaphors (ASAP Rocky' plays John F. Kennedy etc). It is pretty controversial music video. You can watch it below.

The Vaccines announce second album details


This morning, The Vaccines revealed title and artwork for their sophomore album. It is called The Vaccines Come Of Age and it will be out on September 3. Now they added additional information.


In an interview with NME, singer of the band Justin Young said:

"I don't think there's any danger of us making the same record twice. But I think anything people found attractive about us the first time round has been retained. I'm really confident we've got the balance right... I wanted to look inwards with this record. Honesty goes a long way in music and it's therapeutic. There's a lot about the way I'm feeling. One minute you're a shit-kicking 21-year-old and the next you're playing a song you've written in front of 20,000 people chanting your name. But that's tongue-in-cheek too, it's not me taking myself completely seriously."

The record was produced by Ethan Johns, who previously worked with Kings Of Leon, Laura Marling and Tom Jones.

Tracklising of The Vaccines Come Of Age:

"No Hope"
"I Always Knew"
"Teenage Icon"
"All In Vain"
"Ghost Town"
"Aftershave Ocean"
"Weirdo"
"Bad Mood"
"Change Of Heart pt.2."
"I Wish I Was A Girl"
"Lonely World"

First song of the album "No Hope" was previously released with music video.

Watch interview with Billy Corgan

The Smashing Pumpkins just released their anticipated new record Oceania, which is part of their 44-song project Teargarden by Kaleidyscope. I don't really get this project and what the point of it is. However, I really do like Oceania. I feel like they are finally back and still relevant in today's music. The album has tracks reminding old Smashing Pumpkins, but it also has tracks with their new sound.

Frontman Billy Corgan recently did an interview with Fuse. The interview has so far 4 parts (more parts may be coming). First part focuses on Oceania and Kaleidyscope project, second part focuses on the album and whether it is dead, third part focuses on Billy's love for wrestling and the last part focuses on aging in music industry. You can now watch all four parts below.

As you all know, Green Day are releasing album trilogy over next 6 months. Based on trailers revealed for ¡Uno! and ¡Dos! new albums will sound little differently than usual records from this band. However, I love their new sound and I'm excited about these new albums.

Watch new video from Yellowcard

Pop-punkers Yellowcard, who are most famous for their 2003's mega successful record Ocean Avenue, are back with new track and new music video.

After release of their last year's record When You're Through Thinking, Say Yes, they were forced to take some time off. The reason was cancer of one of their members - violin player Sean Mackin. Apparently, he is well now and they are even currently touring with Vans Warped Tour.

    


Also, they announced new album (it is called Southern Air and it will be out on August 14) and they made a music video for the first track revealed. It is called "Always Summer" and you can check it below.
