New single 'Cherry Bomb' is out on Tuesday - so I guess Part 2 isn't far away.

'X-Ray' has been added to the Radio 1 playlist today.

I somehow missed that Of Monsters and Men came back with a new single a couple of days ago! Hopefully that fourth album is finally on the way...

Last day to vote!

+5: Ordinary +4: Messy +3: BIRDS OF A FEATHER +2: APT +1: Beautiful Things -1: Good Luck, Babe! -2: That's So True -3: Pink Pony Club -4: The Days -5: Die With A Smile

Surprise! Foo Fighters have just dropped a new single. A solid comeback on first listen.

The digital version includes these additional tracks: West Coast Can't Stop Come Home Feel Again (With Heartbeats) Kids Something I Need Say (All I Need) Let's Hurt Tonight Distance

Avoiding Sabrina's album I guess - will be good for them to get another #1 album.
