Band Of Skulls have unveiled the video for their new single ‘You’re Not Pretty But You Got It Goin’ On‘, which can be viewed via YouTube below.

Titus Andronicus have offered up a first taste of their forthcoming third studio album after previewing the new material in a live setting during the past few months.

Beady Eye frontman Liam Gallagher has said Paul McCartney and his brother Noel are ‘too nice’, adding that the ‘madness’ involved in John Lennon‘s songwriting is one of the reasons why he is a bigger fan of the late Beatles legend.

Not many modern bands can be classified as ‘heavyweights’ of the musical landscape.

Indeed, most modern bands would scoff at desiring such a thing, but The Killers undoubtedly occupy the upper echelons when it comes to stadium appeal, international success and sheer bigness.

Wearing their ambition and bluster with pride (frontman Brandon Flowers once declared 2006’s ‘Sam’s Town’ as “one of the best albums in the past 20 years”), they now unveil ‘Battle Born’, their fourth studio album of original material and the follow-up to 2008’s commercial smash ‘Day & Age’. And in keeping with the band’s penchant for not beating about the bush, it’s a doozy.

Former Oasis songwriter Noel Gallagher has said the peak of Britpop in the mid-90s when his own band, along with contemporaries such as Blur, Pulp and Manic Street Preachers, dominated both the charts and the nation’s consciousness will never again be repeated.

The Killers have praised their UK-based fans for laying the early foundations of their success back in 2004.

Biffy Clyro have rubber-stamped the final details of their forthcoming double album.
