I got down on Hot Fuss for a minute, but the past few years have caught me sleeping on The Killers. I’ll give them this: they were on the Springsteen train fairly early, so now when I hear The Gaslight Anthem or the like, I can’t help but imagining Brandon Flowers’ glittery jacket. Sorry about that, Gaslight Anthem. The Killers frontman has a solo album called Flamingo hitting stores September 14th. You may have already heard “Crossfire”, and here’s another new track that features Jenny Lewis on backup vocals. Remember when Linda Ronstadt sang backup on Neil Young songs? This is nothing like that, but it’s not too bad.

Brandon Flowers ft. Jenny Lewis – “Hard Enough”

Maximum Balloon – “Absence of Light”
Best way to sell your solo debut if you aren’t quite a name brand to the record buying (torrenting) public? Get the front-man from your big time day job on a track. “Absence of Light,” which features Tunde Adebimpe, is the latest track from Sitek’s forthcoming debut Maximum Balloon and invokes TV On The Radio more than a little which is fine because who knows when TV On The Radio will get back in the studio, and of course we’re pulling for Sitek’s solo effort, this can only help.

If the imagery alone somehow sells you on No Age then we probably won’t ever be friends. Great as it is to learn inflatable gimp suits exist for specialists–the knowledge and sight of one inflating doesn’t excite me for Everything In Between, No Age’s forthcoming and so-far excellent sounding album. On the other hand Everything in Between opener, “Life Prowler,” is what you’re listening to as the suit expands and because we’re here for the music you should pay attention to that.
Speaking of creeping, if you’re cool with Arcade Fire knowing where you live and/or used to live, then check out the fascinating interactive video for my favorite track from The Suburbs, “We Used To Wait.” You may remember director Chris Milk from his brilliant video for Gnarls Barkley’s “Who’s Gonna Save My Soul.”
Matt & Kim – “Cameras”
Stop creeping on Facebook for a moment and head to Matt & Kim’s page to hear their new single, “Camera,” off their upcoming album, Sidewalks, out November 2nd. Also, stream it over at that radio station from Real World: Seattle.

Oh man, you know the players, maybe you know the particulars. It doesn’t matter. Just give this romp a spin. It’s fun.
Kanye West (Feat. Bon Iver, Jay-Z, Nicki Minaj, Rick Ross) – “Monster”
