Apparently all of the best music is hiding in Scotland? Yesterday, we brought you the fine indie-rock stylings of Selkirk’s Frightened Rabbit. Today, however, we’re going in a slightly different direction with CHVRCHES. The Glasgow-based trio draws inspiration from Prince, Robyn, Depeche Mode, Kate Bush, Lil Wayne and […]

In Dreams: “Crazy Enough”
Canadian duo In Dreams could have a hit on their hands with “Crazy Enough”, if anyone ever bothered to listen. The addictive, high-energy pop tune’s been around for nine months now, and I’ve yet to hear it playing on the radio, getting mixed into DJ […]
AlunaGeorge: “Attracting Flies”
AlunaGeorge‘s “Attracting Flies” was accurately described by Stereogum as “probably the sweetest song about telling someone he is full of shit”. It also serves as the first time I’ve officially understood the growing hype around the English duo, who have gained both critical and public […]
Little Boots: “Motorway”
Singer-songwriter Victoria Hesketh, better known to the world as Little Boots, has made deliriously wonderful electro-pop singles since 2009, when she released the completely amazing triumverate of “New In Town“, “Remedy” and “Earthquake“. If you read music blog,s she is probably a household name and […]
Betty Who: “Somebody Loves You”
Today is Valentine’s Day, a bullshit holiday where even the sluttiest sluts realize they have hearts and can’t be satisfied by back room dick-sucking alone. While I hate to go all “soft” on all of you, I’d like to enlist the help of up-and-coming Australian […]
Nick Pes: “I Remember”
As those of you who actually pay attention to our music posts know, I’m rather predictable in my love for sparkly electro-pop with a lot of feelings. Nick Pes delivers hard in that department with his debut single “I Remember”, a guitar-laced and thoroughly ’80s-esque track about summer […]
Aural Only: Teddybears & Robyn
We write about Robyn way too much on Manhunt Daily. If you have a problem with it, then maybe you should tell her to stop being so fucking amazing. Seriously, fellow blogger J. Harvey and I were this close to begging for Manhunt to send […]
Aural Only: Ke$ha
You asked for it, and we’re finally caving in! We’ve had several requests to add Ke$ha‘s “Blow” to our Weekly Top Ten countdown within the past couple of weeks, and we threw them on the back burner for two simple reasons—a) the official video hasn’t […]
Aural Only: Cut Copy
We apologize if Cut Copy’s new music video brings back memories of awkward gym class moments. You know, those times when you were playing a game of basketball/gymnastics, and it suddenly turned into an epic, Lord of the Rings-style battle? So embarrassing! Nonsensical jokes aside […]
Aural Only: Garçon Garçon
It’s been a while since we first introduced you to Australian electro-pop duo Garçon Garçon, and it looks like their official debut single is finally here! “Stay In Touch” made its premiere earlier this week, much to the delight of the gay blogosphere and beyond. If […]
