It’s Monday and to ease the considerable pain of being back in work we’ve got some downloadable and streamable goodies for you.
First up is ‘End To The Lies’, the first taster from Jane’s Addiction’s The Great Escape Artist album, which is out in August.
The track is yours by signing up to the [link]www.janesaddiction.com/splash[/link] mailing-list.
[link]play.converse.co.uk/?p=8337[/link] is the place to go to for ‘Desire’, the latest song commissioned by the Converse posse and which features the combined talents of Paloma Faith, Graham Coxon and The Coral’s Bill Ryder-Jones.
On the filmic front, Adam Green’s “screwball tragedy” The Wrong Ferarri is available for gratis from [link]www.thewrongferarri.com[/link]. Among those making cameo appearances are Macaulay Culkin, Devendra Banhart, Har Mar Superstar, Jeffrey Lewis, Sky Ferreira and flying the flag for dear old Ireland, BP Fallon.
Meanwhile, Electric Picnic headliners Pulp have set up PulpTube as a repository for both fans and celebrity admirers covering their songs. These range from Keane giving ‘Disco 2000’ an outing at a BBC 2 Live gig to Joule from France strumming her way through ‘Like A Friend’.
Have a goo – and upload your own Cocker-esque offering – at [link]www.pulppeople.com/#index[/link].
From there we proceed to [link]www.gomeztheband.com/#email4media_box[/link] where a spot of Twitter or Facebook sharing earns you ‘Options’, a taster from the British band’s Whatever’s On Your Mind elpee, which is out in June.
Similar social network-ery at [link]www.facebook.com/annacalvi?sk=app_115579955183636[/link] will result in you getting your mitts on a delicious cover of Elvis’ ‘Surrender’.
Finally, Architecture In Helsinki have done some extremely nice things to Cut Copy’s ‘Need You Now’. Enjoy!
