‘I want to go to there…’

New Soundgarden song free download on iTunes!

Great to be back at HipsterApproved World Headquarters in scenic Ocean View, Virginia.

Just completed a short visit to the hipster city of Columbus, Ohio. Watch for photos to be posted soon…like this one…

Anyway..my mailbox had some cool stuff in it… For example the new Soundgarden song ‘Live To Rise‘ available as a FREE download on iTunes. All hipsters have iTunes, right? The song is great! It’s off of the Avengers soundtrack.

Speaking of iTunes…Jack White is providing streaming of his entire debut album Blunderbuss – free for a limited time. I’ve been listening to it, and I really look forward to getting a copy of my own on April 24th 2012! It’s some of his best work…And that statement is huge!

Also, speaking of great new music…I’ve been listening to a lot of the new Shins release Port of Morrow. It’s genius. I was lucky enough to get the 4-track acoustic EP because I got it at an independent record store (Birdland in Va Beach). I recommend trying to get it.

I really like the Broken Bells release. I basically like all the James Mercer stuff I can find.

The Shins on SNL….

The Shins new line-up were great on Saturday Night Live last night.

Their new release, Port Of Morrow is coming to iTunes March 20th.

This just in…iTunes is letting you listen to the entire album for free…

From now until March 20, stream Port of Morrow for free. Anchored by the propulsive, harmony-heavy ‘Simple Song,’ The Shins’ fourth album showcases the kind of finely tuned songwriting strengths and ’60s-era arrangements that make the music of James Mercer so compelling. You can also pre-order the new album.
