David Bowie - The Next Day
David Bowie's
The Next Day is out now. The regular CD has 14 tracks, the Deluxe Edition consists of 17 tracks (
So She, Plan, I'll Take You There) - and the Japanese version has even a 18th track (
God Bless The Girl).
It's a good, strong record. It's not a striking change in direction as with Outside or Earthling,
for me it's more a collection of superb songs. I'm still not sure about
the cover of the record though. Yes, it's an unusual concept, but I
don't like it.
Highlights: (You Will) Set The World On Fire, The Stars (Are Out Tonight), Where Are We Now, If You Can See Me, I'd Rather Be High, God Bless The Girl
Phoenix - Bankrupt!
Bankrupt! is the fifth album of Phoenix and it's out April 22 2013.
Phoenix never failed, considering their first single Entertainment they won't do this time either.
She & Him - Volume 3
Volume 3 is the third album by She & Him (M. Ward and Zooey Deschanel), it's out May 7, 2013.
Eleven songs where written by Deschanel, three are cover songs.
Volume 1 & 2 were just beautiful, Volume 3 seems to follow this path.
