Spleen United - Suburbia

"You remember how it feels to fall apart"

Danish synthpop band Spleen United recently released their new album, Neanderthal. I'm not 100% sure of it as an entire album, but the opening few tracks are all brilliant. My Tribe, the lead single, miraculously missed out of my countdown of 2007 singles and I'm annoyed about that, because it is freaking amazing. Unfortunately it was just one of those songs that took until 2008 to hit me. Anyways, I'm not posting that track because it should be pretty easy to find and buy. Instead, I'm posting Suburbia, the lead track on the new album and a great, high energy electro song. This is the kind of material that the band excels at. After you've downloaded this, make sure to seek out My Tribe. You won't be disappointed.

I love the different types of music I can find from this site, you've introduced me to some really great artists - specifically 'Pleasure'.

Not to be a bitch, but lately a lot of this music feels too rocky- college type, as opposed to some great upbeat electro rock pop that you used to post.

Just an observation -

Still love the site!

Duly noted. Of course, I try not to peg myself down to one style or another, and the tracks posted will change depending on what I'm currently into, as well as what's new out there (since I try to focus mainly on very "new" music). I try to make sure though that whatever genres are highlighted are unified by the criteria that I always keep the same: a great, catchy melody.

I'm glad you've found some treasures on here and I hope you can discover many more in the future.

(also, have you listened to A Cult Called Karianna, Kaka or Daggers? I think you might like those bands)

I can understand varities in music...love the new song from 'Neon Sleep'. Love that electro-pop feel

Thanks for the other reccommendations! It's hard to find them on the internet, but I'm off to go try!

When you have a simple name like 'Daggers', you get so many searches. It was especially hard finding 'Pleasure'. When I typed it in I got all these porn sites!

All those bands are on this very blog... just scroll down.

As for Daggers, check out their myspace page (http://www.myspace.com/daggersuk) and stream Money, which has the best chorus of the year so far.
