Don’t ‘pick up’ latest from LA quartet

Silversun Pickups received a lot of critical acclaim after releasing their debut, Carnavas, in 2006 for the mere fact that they were trying to revitalize the old Smashing Pumpkins sound. However, Carnavas was a success in theory more than in practice, and the hype surrounding the group was more focused on their potential than their achievements. On their follow-up, this year's Swoon, Silversun Pickups falls short of delivering on their promise by failing to capture the spirit of Smashing Pumpkins again, instead producing a sound unique only for its mundanity.

Lemonwilde rocks ‘room’

Lemonwilde released their debut EP Red Room from Los Angeles, but the band is rooted right here in singer Joe Murray's hometown of Madison. As their debut spreads through the Internet's wide world of music, listeners will find something eerily reminiscent of Radiohead but with a twist of hard rock. The result is something hard to listen to if you're leisurely walking down the street, yet gripping enough to force its way onto your playlist with regularity.
