Myths Of The Near Future
Bottom/ Surfing The Void (Polydor Records, 2010) is the second studio album by British alternative rock band Klaxons. The album was produced by "The Godfather of Nu Metal" Ross Robinson, and was recorded in Los Angeles, California. Bassist and vocalist Jamie Reynolds described the work as a "prog doom" album. Media response to Surfing the Void was generally favorable, with many professional reviews commented on the band's progression from their 2007 debut album, Myths of the Near Future. BBC reviewer Andy Fyfe noted the band's move away from their New Rave labelling, comparing the band favorably to The Prodigy and Depeche Mode. HMV describes Klaxons as "acid-rave sci-fi punk-funk", a phrase lifted directly from Tim Chester's Radar feature in NME. Though the band's sound is rock-based, they draw upon some less common influences - notably the rave culture of the 1990s, represented in their covers of rave hits "The Bouncer" by Kicks Like a Mule and "Not Over Yet" by Grace. Top/ Say It is the second studio album by Canadian indie rock band Born Ruffians, released on June 1st, 2010, by Paper Bag Records in Canada and Warp Records worldwide. They have toured with artists such as Franz Ferdinand, Caribou, Hot Chip, The Hidden Cameras and Tokyo Police Club. In 2009 they recorded a cover of two Aphex Twin songs for Warp20 (Recreated), a compilation. Say It is the follow-up to their 2008 LP, Red, Yellow & Blue. Born Ruffians, formerly known as Mornington Drive, are a Canadian indie rock band formed in 2004, originally from Midland, Ontario, located near Georgian Bay. They are currently signed to Warp Records.

If We Don't Make It We'll Fake It
Bottom/ Scissor Sisters did it again with the gay/hedonist anthem "Filthy/Gorgeous" (Polydor, 2005), the seventh track on their self-titled debut album. Scissor Sisters is an American band named after a sex position between two women. Their style draws from disco, glam rock, pop and the club scene of New York City. Their first hit was in 2004 with the release of a disco cover of the Pink Floyd classic "Comfortably Numb". Several media outlets have noted that Scissor Sisters 'stick out like a sore thumb' on the list of artists who have sold over 2 million copies of an album in the UK in the 21st century — the others being James Blunt, Robbie Williams, Keane, Dido, Coldplay, and Norah Jones — all artists considered 'mainstream' or 'middle of the road', as opposed to the Scissor Sisters' brash and controversial image. Middle/ After a seven year wait, The Prodigy's fourth studio album Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned (XL Recordings) was released in Summer 2004. It is the first studio album by the electronica act after 1997's The Fat of the Land and its highly controversial single "Smack My Bitch Up". The Prodigy are an electronic music group formed by Liam Howlett in 1990, in Braintree, Essex, England. Along with The Chemical Brothers, Fatboy Slim, The Crystal Method, and a few other lesser-known acts, they were pioneers of the Big Beat genre. The Prodigy are a difficult band to classify, because they have developed significantly with time and continue to innovate. Their music consists of various styles ranging from rave, hardcore, industrial and drum & bass in the early 1990s, to alternative rock and big beat with punk vocal elements in later times. They have sold over 16 million records worldwide which is unequaled in electronic music history. Top/ Canadian dance punk duo Death From Above 1979 played loud synth-infused drum and bass combination. Romance Bloody Romance: Remixes & B-Sides (Last Gang Records, 2005) is a collection of remixes of songs featured on the album You're a Woman, I'm a Machine.

Truth Doesn't Make A Noise
Top/ Meg White and Jack White of punk blues duo The White Stripes delve into truth as number one theme throughout the album Get Behind Me Satan (V2 Records, 2005). In 2006, it was included in 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die, edited by Robert Dimery. On February 2, 2011, after a long hiatus, the duo announced that they would officially cease recording and performing music as The White Stripes. The announcement specifically denied any artistic differences or health issues, but cited "a myriad of reasons ... mostly to preserve what is beautiful and special about the band". The White Stripes was an American alternative rock duo, formed in 1997 in Detroit, Michigan. The group consisted of the songwriter Jack White (vocals, guitar, and keyboards) and drummer Meg White (drums and occasional vocals). After releasing several singles and three albums within the Detroit independent music underground, the White Stripes rose to prominence in 2002, as part of the garage rock revival scene. Their successful albums White Blood Cells and Elephant drew them attention from a large variety of media outlets in the United States and the UK. The White Stripes used a low-fidelity, do-it-yourself approach to writing and recording. Their music featured a melding of punk and blues influences and a raw simplicity of composition, arrangement, and performance. The duo was also noted for their fashion and design aesthetic which featured a simple color scheme of red, white, and black. The band has sold approximately 12 million albums worldwide, two million in the US alone, and their latest three albums have each won the Grammy Award for Best Alternative Music Album. Middle/ Rather Ripped (DGC, 2006) by American alternative rock band Sonic Youth is the last album the band had to release to fulfill their contractual obligation to Geffen Records. Formed in New York City in 1981, Sonic Youth are inspired by the guitar symphonies of Glenn Branca (with whom most of the band have performed), the heavy protopunk of The Stooges, the punk poetry of Patti Smith, the Krautrock of Can, the psychedelic garage rock of The 13th Floor Elevators, as well as avant-garde composers like John Cage. The band were often praised for "redefin[ing] what rock guitar could do" using a wide variety of unorthodox guitar tunings, and preparing guitars with objects like drumsticks and screwdrivers to alter the instruments' timbre. Bottom/ "You Don't Know What Love Is (You Just Do As You're Told)" is the second track to be released from The White Stripes' sixth studio album Icky Thump (XL Recordings, 2007), recorded at Nashville's Blackbird Studio. After Get Behind Me Satan, Icky Thump marks a return to the punk, garage rock and blues influences for which the band was known. Additionally, the album introduces Scottish folk music, avant-garde, trumpet, and bagpipes into the formula. Meg White has said one of her all-time favorite musicians is Bob Dylan; Jack claims "I've got three fathers – my biological dad, God and Bob Dylan".

Lazer Guided Melodies
Glasser is the one-woman orchestra of Cameron Mesirow. Her debut album, Ring (True Panther Sounds, 2010) is a singular work. Glasser entered public consciousness in 2009 with her debut EP, Apply, on True Panther, and a UK-only 12” on the Young Turks label. The intimate, luxurious music resonated widely, despite being made by Mesirow, alone and in airplanes and shoe stores, on GarageBand. With Ring, however, Mesirow worked for months with producer Ariel Rechtshaid to re-imagine her musical arrangements, incorporating organic instrumentation like strings, woodwinds, bass, and a wide array of percussion into her once-sparse recordings. Her simple, minimal melodies and rapturous vocals evoke, side by side, the optimism of a woman captivated by creation and travel, as well as the anxiety that accompanies nomadism and change. Of this duality, the New York Times said “these are beautiful songs, both sweet and abstract, deeply felt and anodyne.”
