Favorites - Week of April 11, 2011

A couple new tracks made it onto my list this week.  Here are my latest favorites.

5. "Make Some Noise" by The Beastie Boys
The latest single from the long awaited Hot Sauce Committee album from the Beastie Boys brings up some great reminders of old school Beastie Boys.

4. "Rolling In The Deep" by Adele
Beautiful, soulful vocals and a dark blues-rock beat make for one excellent track.

3. "Two Against One" Danger Mouse, Daniele Luppi, and Jack White
The White Stripes are gone, but Jack White is still here.  Together with producer-extraordinaire Danger Mouse, Daniele Luppi, and Norah Jones, he is creating an album called ROME.  This is one of my favorites from their project.

2. "White Limo" by Foo Fighters
Back again this week is the extra heavy Foo Fighters with "White Limo".  If for some reason you haven't already bought their album, do it now!

1. "N/A OK" by Ubiquitous Synergy Seeker

A lot of amazing albums are scheduled for release May 3, but USS' EP Approved is the one I'm most amped for.  "N/A OK" is an awesome song, and I'm sure only a taste of things to come from Approved.

Another Jack White Project

While the musical project entitled ROME is actually headed by producer Danger Mouse, Jack White was recruited in late 2010. Danger Mouse and composer Daniele Luppi are working on the ROME album with White and Norah Jones. ROME will be available May 16, 2011. If that's too long to wait, they recently released a song titled "Two Against One". It is a great as you would expect it should be, check it out.
