Every Tuesday Single Minded highlights new tracks hitting stores (or the Web) this week. On Fridays, come back for rarities, remixes, mash-ups and more.
Coheed and Cambria, “The Running Free” [Official Site]
Didn’t Iron Maiden do this song with more whiskey and less falsetto? Hey, we’re not hating, kids! This is a tightly-knit rock journey about coming home, an abode which may or may not be in hell.
Babyshambles, Shotter’s Nation [Full Album Stream]
In between court dates Pete Doherty penned a few tracks about the hardship of “getting out of bed.” Could it be because the ten kilos of addiction pressing on his chest?
Serj Tankian, “Empty Walls” [MySpace]
Taking political commentary from a demon-eyed metal operatic in a top hat may seem counterintuitive, but System of a Downer Tankian makes excellent use of a ball pit in this track’s video.
Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, Rich Woman [Full Album Stream]
Robert Plant finally found a way to avoid chillin’ awkwardly on the piano during those twelve-minute guitar-drum solos: a pristine blues remake.
Dave Gahan, “Kingdom” [MySpace Page]
Depeche Mode’s Gahan rules his own domain with marching electronic beats and unapologetic existentialism. Let’s see some angsty flying monkeys and agnostic hobbits next time, thanks.
