Great Day For New Music: T.I., MGMT, She and Him, and Bright Eyes
Lets start off by talking about the most important song that leaked today T.I.'s "I am Back" What else could it be called when dude just got out of prison: http://www.xxlmag.com/online/?p=72576
It is more of a mix tape track and the loopy beat sounds like a southern fried version of Black Rob's Whoa; but whats evident right away is that nearly a year in jail has not hurt T.I.'s flow or and lyrically he is ferociously going at anyone who talked shit about him while he was away.
Next up, 2 news songs from MGMT leaked, Flash Delirium and the title track Congratulations and You can check em out here: http://stereogum.com/293942/mgmt-flash-delirium/mp3s/
Congratulations sounds like a Rolling Stones balled if it was done in a more trippy way. Lyrically, it takes the view point of a politician who is desperate for success soon after they win office. Flash Delirium is a constantly shifting four minutes of music that is engaging and interesting throughout. Rumors of a sophomore slump are bullshit.
The New Bright Eyes track is off a reissue of an EP they did in 04 with Neva Dinova that is going to contain 4 new tacks including the new one Happy Accident: The track is classic Bright Eyes with Conor's Dylanesque lyrics and a variety of guitars and bells. Check out a preview of it here: http://music.minneapolisfuckingrocks.com/post/437209764/mp3-bright-eyes-happy-accident
Finally, is not a completely new She & Him song because it (In the Sun) came out a few weeks ago, but the new video for said song. Zooey is dancing around a high school during the entire video, what else do you need to know? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W18_OO8TD78
