WELCOME, to Ball Park Music's Museum of MUSIC...

Oh my Grandma (no offence grandma:)) this band just recently released a new album which was AMAZING. Their arty farty and alternative, acoustic sound of their new album makes me VERY happy! One of the songs on this record is 'Coming Down', and boy when I first heard it I honestly thought it was from Ron Sexsmith's new album,and I just had to get it! Many of BBM's other hits are also on this collaboration, making this one of 2012's BEST ALBUM's in my eyes,what do you thing Mrs Coyote?:)
                           
                                                  umm... here's the youtube link!

                                         

The shins

'Port of Morrow" is The Shins newest album, with a electro twist and a bright idea to the whole, Electro theme going on in the music bizz at the moment.OK, so this album is from a couple of months ago... but hey? Its still awesome right? I also voted for this album on the Triple J top album of the year page.

Check out their amazeballs video for 'The Rifles Spiral' here!

Jackie Onassis's Crystal Ball shows good signs

Jackie Onassis may not of hit hollywood yet, buthe is definatle rockinng the shores of australia with his hip-hop/dance vibe.Like most peerformers today they cater for the 30 and under crowd  of music, but with everyone trying so hard  to get to the tops these days, some songs can just be well... really really bad. But this duo of Tai Kan and Raph Dixon have stayed true to their plan and are really caring about what vibe their music is sending off. 'Crystal Balling' was their first  single from the duo with a bit of everythinng smoothed into it(i.e trumpets rapping). Their a bit of 360 mixed with a spoonful of The Razzle Kicks and a head full of Hilltop Hoods. This is one of Australia's secret superhero bands that    wont be under our belt for much longer, So good luck to them both!

rating: 5/5Definitely flips the switch on the laidback style you've shown us so far, but you do this so well that I'm not fussed when it's this good

Macklemore, Do you really wear your grandads clothes?

Oh My God, I CAN NOT GET ENOUGH OF THIS GUY!

His song 'Thrift store' Sounds better and better the more you hear it...even my mum likes it!

Yes, there is some creative lyrics like: I wear my grandads clothes, I look incredible,but it all just adds to his 360 cross Illy uniqueness. A well deserved 4 and a half stars from me;)

Bat your eyelids for this!

The Haunted Man is the third album that Bat for Lashes have let fly, and a beauty it is. 'Laura' has always been an amazing song ever since it was released. And now that the bundle of BFT british third child comes wrapped in blankets, its well worth the wait!

"sounds like a bold, confident album that strips away a lot of the sonic embellishments from Khan's sound", The Guardian

"while The Haunted Man deals in less trinkets than its predecessor, it's not scant in splendour",New Musical Express's Ben Hewitt.

                                   Bat For Lashes third album, The Haunted Man, Out Now

They won't be sighn' no more!

WOW. If any of you guys got to see these four play on their australian tour last month, boy your lucky!
The serenitiy and exitment of the Mumford's is brilliant. They know exactly what what they have to do to get back in the game. Though if the new album is anything to go by, just get the GOOD songs on Itunes. Babel is an actually OK song to make the name of your album. But something went wrong in the recording studio with I will wait. When I went to see them play in Australia I was actually DREADING I Will Wait to come on. Now im not being harsh but this is actually an OK album seeing I practically begged my teacher to copy it for me;-)

She was never born to die.

One of this years most renowned artists who has the lungs of Adele and the creativing and special zing of Lady Gaga, Lana Del Rey brings everything to the gold plated table. Her new edition to the breakthrough album, Born To Die, brings a fresh fell to her groovy lungs and fans.

'Ride' is one of the editional songs on Born To Die,and with its mini short-music film adding another layer to the glory, she has topped of the year with one to remember.
