 | Many Shades of Black - Adele Feat. RacontuersThis particular rendition of The Raconteurs follow up to their last highly limited single 7" release, is performed by the British not-as-wild version of Amy Winehouse and more-vivacious than version of Duffy, Adele. Her team up with the band lends her performance a rocky edge that veers away from her usual syrupy jazzy croons. |
 | Broken Road – 12 StonesIt was Paul McCoy who dealt Evanescence’s Bring Me to Life a riveting male vocal valor, bagging a Grammy for Best Hard Rock Performance in the process. And since then his late 90’s-style rock band 12 Stones have forged through line-up changes, paternal duty calls and Hurricane Katrina devastation, to produce a commendable effort of a third album in Anthem for the Underdog, from which this song is taken. |
 | America's Suitehearts - Fall Out BoyThis is the latest release from their new album Folie a Deux. The breezy and giddy track is characteristic of the pop absurdity that these kings of Emo have championed with theatrical glee and costume over the years and its video is an apt complement, featuring a head-spinning psychedelic circus of Paris Hilton look alikes, which leaves the tweety birds of the introduction of the song fluttering around your head even all song long. |
 | Contagious - TraptTaken off their third studio album, Only Through The Pain, the decade-old rockers who limped into platinum success in 2002, deliver a less-than-robust performance in their newest release. The song is a typical angst-filled meant-for-emo love story, but is prized above all the other stereotypical tracks on the album by its catchy unassuming hook, that lingers in your brain longer than a Malteaser at the very least. |
 | The Fear - Lilly AllenThe song has all the instantly likeable simplicity of Lilly Allen-isms in its lyrics and vocal style until it is kicked out of the pretty pink and blue caravan of its promo video onto a beat-stomped track of Japanese electronic weird-bliss, giving us a possible sneak peak of the new kind of sound that can be expected from Lilly’s new album It’s Not Me, It’s You, set to be released in February. |
