Struck with the realisation that at 22 they still had time to do something meaningful with their lives, and sobered with the realisation that being in Panic At the Disco wasn't it, these two average-to-accomplished guitarists (Ryan Ross and Jon Walker) have now set about writing average-to-accomplished Byrds-ian 60s pop. It's got all the emo kids rather, erm, emotional - an irony which is probably lost on them.

Listen Up No.18: Besnard Lakes - Albatross
Tweet
Slightly belated as lead-off singles go (the album dropped in March), for those who haven't picked up the excellent The Besnard Lakes Are the Roaring Night, here's a gentle reminder of why you should. Think skyscraping guitars, peaked only by the soaring melodies. As far as the vid goes... it's some kind of faux-espionage intrigue that's gone way over my head but still retains my interest. Oooo, deep.

Tweet
Bloc Party's increasingly frowning frontman releases his debut solo effort - 'The Boxer' - this week, and he's only gone and the done the whole electro/dance thing hasn't he! Who saw that coming (erm...)? Anyway, to save you the trouble of listening to the whole thing (which is fairly mediocre), here's the only track you desperately need. It's essentially a gentleman's update of Wiley's 'Wearing My Rolex', but by Jove, it's a belter.
