Have you good people heard the single from the Killers?  I've probably listened to it a good 10 times and I really can't decide what I think of it.  I feel as if they've lost the zeal that initially made them appealing and then replaced it with an awkward attempt at house/dance music.  Only somehow it's not the most awful thing ever.  Weird, right?  Anyway, today I have that new track that you've been hearing all over TV in the latest iTunes commercial.  It's from Chairlift, who is an act I meant to cover before I went on my excursion, and you can find it on Does You Inspire You.  You can pick it up in digital format now, but if you want a hard copy you'll just have to wait for Kanine Records to deliver you one at the end of October.  Enjoy.

:Chairlift - Bruises:  Because this is the latest song to grace an iTunes commercial I'm not even going to bother describing its sound or anything like that.  I mean, at this point you should totally be aware of the fact that somehow Apple manages to always cull the latest and most sugary sweet pop tracks around.  It's crazy.  What I will do though is go on and affirm what you've probably already guessed as well - this will be lodged in your head for a long time to come.

Here's the video for a song called Planet Health.  The track itself isn't quite as catchy as the one above, but it's still pretty damn good in its own right.  I say give it a listen.
