Eminem Returns for Some Reason!
1. Eminem, “Untitledâ€
Marshall Mathers is back and doing what he does best — dropping cultural references from 2002! [Nah Right]
2. Jesu, “You Wear Their Masksâ€
Jesu are the newly appointed kings of post-metal, a genre named for the way it makes you want to beat yourself to death with a metal post. [Metal Sucks]
3. Ryan Adams, “The Dark†(live)
An excellent performance from Ryan Adams’s recent Minnesota show at which he was booed. Is nothing good enough for you obnoxious Minnesotans?! [Fuel Friends]
4. Foo Fighters, “Never Talking to You Again†(live Hüsker Dü cover)
Unless you’re Courtney Love, we’d imagine it’s pretty hard to get a nice guy like Dave Grohl to give you the silent treatment. [The Good]
5. Tegan and Sara, “Umbrella†(Rihanna cover)
These identical twins think they can win us over by covering Shia LaBeouf’s girlfriend’s smash hit single — and they’re right! (We loved Transformers.) [Berkeley Place]
