Single Minded: New Britney Spears, Plus Ben Lee Covers Against Me!, The Go! Team Cove
 

Britney Spears, [Untitled New Song]
Britney coos, “Why did you desert me, baby boy?” while an infants musical mobile twinkles in the background. And you thought irony was dead.
Ben Lee, “White People for Peace” [Against Me! Covers]
Ben Lee covers the entire new Against Me! record, quietly, from start-to-finish. Imagine if instead he liked Rihanna?
The Go! Team, “Bull in the Heather” [Sonic Youth Cover]
British buzz band turn weird Sonic Youth single into weird Go! Team single. Now lets see them take a crack at “The Diamond Sea.”
The Killers, “Cant Take My Eyes Off of You/Shadowplay” [Live Frankie Valli/Joy Division Cover]
Brandon Flowers and Co. pull off the estimable feat of aggravating two generations at once. If only they’d worked in Fall Out Boy for the trifecta.
De La Soul/New Kids on the Block, “Jenifa Taught Me/Step By Step” [Mash-up]
Humbly suggests that if wed had the Internet in the Eighties, wed be doing the same stupid stuff were doing with it now.
