Friday the 13th 6 pack





Friday the 13th 6 pack featuring the luck that you make for yourself in life or in love. For example, above we have young Randall and his prom dates. I like to think that Randall here, a dead ringer for Moe from the Simpson's, was born with bad luck in the looks department, but through hard work and a course in The Game, has transformed himself into... a creepy looking guy who the girls can't keep their hands off of.

Get your paws on this week's 6 pack.

Tracklisting:

Annie - "My love is better"
Breezy and poppy, but Annie's got a nasty edge to her, dissing her rival. The lesson here: Don't fuck with the Swedes.

Sleigh Bells - "Ring Ring" (HT: Maxwell of Little Ears)
This band's going to blow up huh-yuge. Great song. Just a duo, Derek Miller is the beatmaker and provides instrumentals, while Alison Krauss' singing delivery is more rap flow than chanteuse-like. I swear I thought this was a Snoop Dogg cover when I first heard it.

Vampire Weekend - "Everywhere (Fleetwood Mac cover)
On to a couple of Vampire Weekend take the coked out vibe of the original and add in some of their afropop preppiness in its stead.

Alphabeat - "Digital Love (Daft punk cover)"
A stripped down acoustic TigerBeat singalong of an electro stomper? Somehow it realy works.

DuckSauce - "Anyway"
Disco goodness. (Oxymoron? Checking..... Nope.) A new track that comes off as all retro 4/4 funkyness.

The Budos Band - 'King Charles'
Instrumental funk. Sounds like the sample for Mirwais 'Disco Science'. Slinky.

The Drums - "Let's go surfing (The Clean Shaven Grins Out There) Version"
Bonus track. Where the original of this song is like a fey version of the Ramones, this goes all boppy synth stabs and whistling.
