Art Brut: Still TALKING Like THIS!

The latest MP3s to hit the blogs

1. Art Brut, “Direct Hit�
Even after the success of 2005’s Bang Bang Rock & Roll, Art Brut front man Eddie Argos still hasn’t bothered with learning to sing. And we salute him for it. [Angry Ape]

2. Kanye West, “Can’t Tell Me Nothing�
According to the dubious lyrics of this leaked Graduation track, there was once a time when Kanye West suffered from ego problems. [Nah Right]

3. Smashing Pumpkins, “Tarantula� (clip)
This 30-second clip from the impending Smashing Pumpkins’ reunion album will disappoint you in record time. [AOL]

4. Paul McCartney, “Only Mama Knows�
It probably won’t win back anyone who gave up after Venus and Mars, but so far Memory Almost Full sounds at least as good as Flaming Pie. [Modern Music]

5. Spoon, “Don’t Make Me a Target�
After Monday’s leak, some were worried that the upcoming Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga would be Britt Daniel’s bid for a Kid A–style career reinvention. To allay those fears, here’s a song that sounds like Spoon. [I Guess I’m Floating]
—Lane Brown
