Good (Current) Pop Songs

Decayed Rhapsody · 08.05.2009, 10:29 PM

Animal Collective doesn't count. Be as cheesy as you want to be. I am particularly fond of Glice's opinion in these matters.

^"NME shite" but it's an alright song. That dude looks like he could've been a roadie for Vanilla Ice.

That second one isn't viewable over here.

This finally grew on me. I'm getting it now.

Xenomania behind this one - Xenomania are practically incapable of failing (although this song's probably bombed).

Been caning this fucker of late.

This has been kicking around for a year or so now. I've had the CD confiscated from me by the guys I live with. I'm actually tempted to put it in my top 10 albums, so seriously gay is my hard-on for the record.

Possibly a bit the wrong side of new country for a lot of people, but it's been my favourite album this year.

I'm not getting on board with this Lady Gaga shite. I like her as a celebrity, but someone's going to have to give me a prod when she releases a song that isn't shite, because I shan't be watching her with the sound on.

I like the Ting Ting's "that's not my name" song.

Black Lips "Oh Katrina" is fucking fantastic garage pop.

(few years old I know) but gwen stefani's "what u waiting for" is pop genius.

Besides that, I'm working on it.

& I guess I use pop loosely

The part that starts around 0:54 reminds me so much of Teenage Riot.

I love the Starlight Mints

vomit, dude

pure vomit.

it's catchy. i'll give it that. but the same 3 fucking synth notes that are really loud and repeat OVER AND OVER ruin it for me. once you notice it, it's like the plague.

I think that's CSS

That Ting Tings song is great but seems to be the only one by them I enjoy.

I like the 'Love Story' song by Taylor Swift.

How about Little Boots? Much more exciting with the sound on. Less exciting appearance, though.

Remedy.

Still not sure about her - I can't help but feel that it's house music by stealth. Still, I'm not writing her off just yet.

I mentioned this on T&B's RnB thread but thought it deserved another one. Absolutely astonishing track:

Major rep-attack upon you, demonrail.

Goapele has always been brilliant (with Hieroglyphics, etc...) but this track is new to me, and new in general it would seem. Great stuff!

ROYAL HEADACHE - ELOISE
So somehow some of my best friends recordings were leaked on some blog, a couple of hours later Pitchfork sends them an email asking to put it on their "Forkcast". For fans of the Buzzcocks, the Nerves, Pointed Sticks, Guided By Voices.... I'd be happy watching this band every week for the rest of my life. 7" coming soon on my little label REST IN PEACE SOCIETY RECORDS.
