Let me start off with an apology for my lack of posts in the last few days; sorry!
Drake posted a video for “Marvin's Room” on his October's Very Own blog yesterday. In the clip, we see the hip hop crooner drowning his sorrows to ease the pain of unrequited love. Watch below.
In addition to “Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall,” Coldplay have debuted two new tracks to be included on their still-untitled album to be released this fall. I was surprised with the sound of these songs. Where “Every Teardrop” is quite reminiscent of their previous work, “Major Minus” and “Moving To Mars” seem to take the Brits in a new direction. “Major Minus” has a echo effect layered over some fuzzy guitar, while “Moving To Mars” starts with Chris Martin singing in super low baritone over the piano, it then transforms with synths and twinkling guitar work. Listen below.

The Suburbs, Arcade Fire's Grammy winning record, tells the story of a dystopian neighbourhood, home to people who have become heartless and hopeless. In the video for the album's title track we saw teenagers bike riding through the streets while some sort of military attack was underway. The clip played as a trailer to a short film the band promised fans would be released in the near future. Well the Spike Jonze directed piece is finally available for your viewing pleasure. Scenes From the Suburbs is a 30-minute mini-movie which debuted at the Berlin International Film Festival in February. You should be able to watch it here, but if you live in the U.S, Canada or Germany, some strange restrictions apply. Do not Fear! The film will be on the band's deluxe edition of The Suburbs hitting stores in August, or if you patiently wait, I'm sure someone will have it floating about online shortly. The deluxe edition will feature two new tracks: “Culture War” and “Speaking in Tongues” featuring David Byrne.
