The rattling, shaking, humming, buzzing, thumping intro into fuzz-rock songs is something it's difficult to tire of. But even if these Aussies have gone for the default beginning, there's more to this track by The Money Go Round than that. 'Endless Sun' sparkles with vibrancy and psychedelia and balances out the whole melody/distortion thing just about perfectly.

Chrysta Bell - Real Love
Wondering who the "David" is that Christa Bell has written on her cheekbone? It's probably David Lynch. Lynch and Bell have been collaborating for a decade on a musical project called 'This Train' which is soon to be released with a tour to coincide. First offering 'Real Love' bodes well, a spooky, haunting alt-pop number that shows off that rich voice.

Drenge - Necromance Is Dead
Nice work with the morbid pun for the title. Sheffield brothers Drenge have been swamped with hype lately and we really haven't been able to see what the fuss is about. Then we heard new track 'Necromance Is Dead' and it was some raw and cutting, dark, Cramps-like, almost bluesy garage-rock and it sounded ace. So here it is then. Next big things? Probably not. Quite good? There's every chance.

Jingo - Same Without You
Well Londoners Jingo look like a cheerful bunch with their colourful press shots and painted on facial hair, however their music would beg to differ. They've taken the slightly unusual step of launching their musical career together with two debut singles (see SoundCloud for more) including this brooding and heartbroken tune that's full to the brim with emotion oozing from every pore.
