NEW ORDER - LOST SIRENS

Ninth Studio Album

Date Released: 2013 Jan

I'll Stay With You

Hey, you, what is the matter Tell me the truth, I won’t laugh at you. Were his words cruel Were they unkind That guy’s a fool, he’s crossed the line. I’ll stay with you Till hell freezes over. We are to each other Like sister and brother. You’re one of a kind, High on my agenda, Oh, I’ll change your mind, When will you surrender Remember that day, Your world fell apart It cut like a blade Right through your heart. And where were your friends Just when you needed them They were not there Why did you believe in them

Pretty Loser

Do you know the way? Do you know the turns and the side roads? The turns and the side roads that lead all the way to your heart People say you're pretty People say you're pretty much an angel An angel but dare I say you seem to believe it too much And all the neighbors think that you're something To some extent I tend to agree But if by chance you end up alone well I think I might take you in for free You're such a pretty loser That's why I want to make you mine A pretty pretty loser You're so a loser but I don't mind You want to steal the show You think you know it all and a lot more But girl, don't you think you've stretched your drama too far I can tell you all your dirty secrets See through all your lies People scare me, people warn me People ask me ask me why Yaddah yaddah yaddah yaddah yaddah Blah blah blah Yaddah yaddah yaddah yaddah yaddah Blah blah blah Can't you see it's such a complicated task? To dissect and study the anatomy of what you ask of me You're such a pretty loser That's why I want to make you mine A pretty pretty loser You're such a loser but I don't mind 'Cause you're such a pretty baby And I just thought that maybe Maybe I could make you mine My pretty loser My own pretty loser

ALICE IN CHAINS - THE DEVIL PUT DINOSAURS HERE

5th Studio Album
Release Date: 2013 May



Stone

I know you think I'm wrong but im not your tour guide Have a guess i don't let you look inside Cold dry stone What makes you want to carve your initials in me Rained and weathered erasing hard to read Find me distant outwardly rough obscene Cold dry stone Cold and dry, a stone Cold and dry, a stone I'm not a cornerstone in a palace for you Time will bring your very own hard truth Not to worry ice covered rocks still move Cold dry stone Cold dry stone

THIS IS NEW ALTERNATIVE - ( THE SOUNDTRIPPER II - VOLUME ONE )

This here is new alternative.   You can call them what you want.  Call it Grunge, Indie Rock, or Modern Rock but it's easier to call it Alternative.  Remember when you get confused what to call the genre?,  It's better to call it the alternative meaning it's the other thing you want to call it.

These songs are fresh, which means they were released not long ago.  The best I could come up  without revisiting the other old alternative songs.  And they pretty much convey the same mood. Some bands were here for a long time now, but a number of them are really quite new.

Tracks:
01. The Journey - Big Country
02. Be Ready When I Say Go - Emperors
03. Let's All Kill Each Other - Soul Asylum
04. Be Careful What You Ask For - Everclear
05. I Don't Believe You - The Thermals
06. Speed of Love - James Iha
07. Kind of A Girl - Tinted Windows
08. Sugar - Shout Out Louds
09. I've Got a Wild Feeling - Milk Music
10. A Dip In The Ocean - Fountains of Wayne
11. Where We Come From - French Films
12. Favourite Colour - Tokyo Police Club
13. Change It All - The Breaking Waves
14. See and Be Scene - The Hard Lessons

THE SOUNDTRIPPER - COMPILATION VOLUME XXIII

My Dear Delirious
by Righex

Who misses Grunge? I mean the Grunge Crunch era that we knew. The kind of music that will make you say "Yeah, it is grungy!" Like chewing a ball of hard and crunchy "chicharron" inside your mouth or your head being sawn off, a jawbreaker. Hot, hard and crisp. But you don't need your flannels just yet, just play on and strip this sound. This volume and for this month of February, let's visit back the angst-driven, root Seattle rock scene of the 80s, 90s and beyond. This is Grunge and their counterparts. I made it a point not to feature two tracks of the same band. These here is a colloidal mixture of the best of Grunge rock on my standpoint. So grab on to your seats or get loose and into the groove with this collection of doinks. Make sure you put your ears closer to the speakers and play it louder than usual. Take the Grunge Plunge everybody.

MY BLOODY VALENTINE - M B V

Bloody Blue
by R C Kola

Echoing the news from The Guardian, "their last record was twenty two years ago". After the critically aclaimed Loveless, comes this new surprise album entitled simply as "m b v". Shields happened to be recording this on and off for two decades. This is an excellent pre-Valentine treat. Gaze on shoes or sleep a popful of dreams, this has to be the mood for at least a month's dose. MBV! MBV! MBV!

CREATION

THE SOUNDTRIPPER - COMPILATION VOLUME XXII

Al Dente Forte
by RC Kola

Before the month of January ends and for the first post of 2013, I have decided to feature a compilation  once every month. And since I still have not featured any record for 2013, I compiled more songs or tracks for this volume.Volume XXII features a mixture of different but connected genres.  Some old and some new.  Some popular and some unheard of or underrated.  You decide which ones suit your taste.  Some you may find inappropriately included, does not belong or out of place or context.  But nevertheless, you'd see and discover how different music catches and reflect our every mood. Play on and you'll find out anyway that it's mostly indie rock, pop or alternative.  Picked the best tracks in no particular concept or age in mind. Just the thought that all of these tracks might slip away from my playlist someday.  So before that happens, I am leaving it here somehow before it disappears into oblivion.  And by the way, because I am getting fewer audience here, I am not naming the tracks here hoping that you'd try and identify them yourself or dare to ask The Soundtripper. Enjoy.
