The next Concretes album is planned for release in February 2006 according to a news update at the band's website. For the uninitiated, download some mp3's from the band's self-titled first album here[kinda slow, but hey it's free...and oh, it's a russian site].

[The live sessions usually begin around the 20:40:00 mark(about 8:40 London, England time or about 2:40 Eastern Standard Time). Or else the shows are usually archived for a week.]
Teenage Fanclub performed today on BBC 6 Music's Gideon Coe program, performing the nice country-ish "It's All In My Mind", the first track off the band's upcoming CD "Man-Made", and "Save", a more sombre-sounding countryish tune, also off the new CD. Listen here[around the 20:40:00 mark, and the show's only archived for a week].
The Guardian Unlimited discusses the recent trend of artists covering other artists recent songs, specifically mentioning a new album called "Cosmosonica", 'an eclectic collection of exotic and unexpected cover versions' which will be released next month. Other covers on the album include Snow Patrol's version of Beyoncé's "Crazy in Love" and Razorlight's reworking of Outkast's "Hey Ya".
Download the mp3 hip-hop mix "Everyday Wordplay". This is the same mix included on the CD that they were giving away at the last Dynamite Soul night(the one Republic of Safety played) in Toronto...the one which I had picked up, put in my jacket pocket, but which had fallen out of my pocket by the time I got back to my car that night. As I had remembered reading on the CD cover, it is a hip hop mix featuring some mid-90's hip hop....y'know when hip hop was still good. [download link found via 20hz]
