“世界上能动能静并且最激动人心的乐队”当下非CYRSTAL CASTLES 莫属了。这支来自加拿大多伦多的电子乐队为一男一女两人阵容，ETHAN KATH 和 ALICE GLASS，做的是如今最时髦的8 BIT THRASH，他们的音乐被认为是非常具有创新意识的。CRYSTAL CASTLES 能象现在这样有超高人气不仅仅是因为乐队自身的才华和团员自身的努力，同样也因ENTHAN KATH 之前将BLOC PARTY 等众多著名大派乐队的歌曲做了出色的混音版本。
Crystal Castles成立于2003年，可谓是迅速崛起。在过去的两年里面他们成功的在美国，澳洲以及欧洲各地举办了无数演出。后来在各大杂志网站的访谈中CC说到其实他们刚开始的时候并没有心去做一个乐队，他们只是按照自己的兴趣喜好去把各种声音混合起来。第一张单曲 “ALICE PRACTICE”的制作发行完全也只是一个巧合，ALICE 当时是在为一个话筒做SOUND TEST。直到后来把这首歌放到MYSPACE上以后他们才意识到自己当时自己的这个无意行为如今对广大乐迷多么具有威慑力了。后来便有许多家唱片公司陆续找上门。
到今天为止，CC在西方国家的火暴程度无人能比。他们在MYSPACE上的网页已经有将近2800000的访问率。他们现在已经开始不知道第几伦的美国巡演了。我本人在去年9月看过CC 与 METRIC的共同专场，没有见过比CC更出色的乐队，哪怕是如今已经成为摇滚明星的METRIC，在与其相比之下也显逊色。

22岁的音乐人Dom是来自于Worcester, Massachussets的流行摇滚三人组Dom的头儿(另两名成员是吉他手Erik 和鼓手Bobby.K)。Dom有姓，但是他不肯透露，理由听起来有些可笑－因为他欠了“许多钱”。Dom 梦想着能制作出艺术性极强的色情片、和Lil Wayne一起玩电游。他甚至把自己的猫写入当地冰球队的队歌(专辑里第四首，猫的名字）。对此他觉得很无所谓，这点很了不起

After Laibach in 2006, Die Form was invited in 2007 to the Bach Fest in Leipzig to present a selection of J.-S. Bach's works (pieces) totally re-arranged in an audio-visual show.
Slipping gradually from murmur to noise, from the caress to chaos, once again in the search of a certain mystical form in the expression of desire and death, rummaging in the entrails and wandering in the labyrinth of the memory...
"Philippe Fichot's French art project DIE FORM has always been a lot more than just a music band. For 25 years DIE FORM has represented an unrivalled fusion of music, performance, photography and experimental films. After numerous collaborations with other artists and more than 30 albums, many video clips and short films plus two volumes of photographs, the unique interpretation of Bach compositions - as it was performed live in Leipzig on the occasion of the Bach week in 2006 - is released on a new album.
Once again organic and electronic noise with neo classic elements is united with experimental structures with classic harmonies and vocals. And also again cold technical elements are confronted with the warm and erotic voice of Eliane P. Due to the sensational success of these Bach interpretations the performed songs are now presented on an official DIE FORM album and unfold the irresistible charm of the original performance on the basis of harmony and rhythm.
DIE FORM has long escaped the limits of dark electronics and presents a mature and genuine album that no aficionado of experimental sound worlds can elude.

Patchy and uninspiring debut from São Paulo disco punks and Diplo pals.

The King of Limbs is the eighth studio album by English alternative rock band Radiohead, produced by Nigel Godrich. It will be released on 19 February 2011 as a download in MP3 and WAV formats, followed by a physical CD release in the UK on 28 March [1] and a special "newspaper" edition on 9 May 2011.[2] The "newspaper" edition will contain "two clear 10-inch vinyl records in a purpose-built record sleeve, many large sheets of artwork, 625 tiny pieces of artwork, a compact disc, and a full-colour piece of oxo-degradable plastic to hold it all together".[3]
The album was announced on Radiohead's website on 14 February 2011, five days before release.[4] The name of the album possibly refers to an oak tree in Wiltshire's Savernake Forest, thought to be 1,000 years old.[4] The tree is a pollarded oak, referring to an ancient technique for harvesting timber for fencing and firewood. Though it does not feature on maps, the tree is said to be 3 miles (4.8 km) from Tottenham Court House, where Radiohead recorded part of their previous album In Rainbows.[5]

Former blog-house band has fully transitioned into a sleek, urbane pop-rock outfit, taking polished cues from Steely Dan and Phoenix.

Cansei de Ser Sexy是一支來自巴西聖保羅的樂團。CSS是葡萄牙語「Cansei de Ser Sexy」的縮寫，字面意義為「我已厭倦性感」。據稱此句源出於女歌手Beyoncé之口。

Hit Thing Records in cooperation with Lobotom Records proudly presents the first full-length release from the Swedish duo Bondage Fairies. Bondage Fairies are art school dropout Elvis Creep, computer scientist Deus Deceptor and super mainframe computer Bee-Bee Prime who craft head-shredding noise spawned from raw electricity and synthetic drums in an outburst of punk and electro-madness. Bondage Fairies released a 7" EP He-man on Lobotom in 2005 which was an amalgamation of noise-pop, electro and liberal sampling, but What You Didn't Know When You Hired Me is the band at its most robotic and most explosive. Pure death punk for acid pixies.Hit Thing. 2006.

It's been over six years since Schnauss introduced the world to his wonderful blend of electronic textures and shoe-gazer aesthetics featured on his debut, "Far Away Trains Passing By". It's also been four years since "A Strangely Isolated Place" hit shelves in his native Germany and cemented his place among the elite electronic artists. That album combined the early 90's Creation Records' sound of pioneering acts like Slowdive and My Bloody Valentine with modern electronic tapestries. "Quicksand Memory" brings Ulrich's musical drought to an end, featuring two new tracks and Robin Guthrie's re-workings of two of Ulrich's most celebrated songs, "Gone Forever" and "On My Own". Look for the upcoming full-length, "Goodbye", in June.

MGMT is a psychedelic synthpop group formed in 2002 in Brooklyn, NY. The band consists of multi-instrumentalists Andrew VanWyngarden (vocals, guitar, keyboards) and Ben Goldwasser (vocals, keyboards, synths, drums), both alumni of Wesleyan University.
