The Butcher Upstairs.

Much exciting Academy Is… news today.  William Beckett recently admitted to finally beginning writing for their fourth album.  After a brutal media bashing of Fast Times at Barrington High, there should be pressure to create a new direction.  Let’s pray it is not as drastic as Panic! at the Disco.

To the lesser known member of The Academy Is… Andrew Mrotek has posted two new songs for free download on the bandcamp site of his side project, The Animal Upstairs.  And they are great.

Killers cover Bright Eyes.

Hot off the Spaceman EP, The Killers covered a classic Bright Eyes tune, Four Winds.  Check it out and leave your thoughts.  Is Conor better off to catch onto the synth trend or should we leave him at folk luster?

Calling All Cars – Hold, Hold, Fire

Calling All Cars originated in Tilba, Australia but the three boys Haydn Ing, James Ing and Adam Montgomery have taken over more than just that town. They’ve started rule over the entire country. Starting their career with two explosive EP’s, the band has finally banded together to produce their debut album, Hold, Hold, Fire which strips your ears of their preconceptions. Whether you listen to Jack’s Mannequin, Paramore, Death Cab For Cutie or Owl City, Calling All Cars have proven themselves accessible and favoured by fans of any genre. The rock group are not bound by noise but forge a path through conventions.
