(01) Florence & the Machine - Rabbit heart (Raise it up) (9 / 10): Much of the hype around Florence in the UK is to some extent justified, because the British see in her a new "product" , which has a separate style and can make success around the world. With many elements of Tori Amos and something from Kate Bush, Florence has created one of the best songs I heard this year. Listen to the whole album ( "Lungs") here .
(02) Arctic Monkeys - Crying Lightning (9 / 10): Excellent first single from the upcoming new album of Monkeys "Humbug" (expected to be released on August 19). With elements from "505" of the previous album, but a little more dynamic, the "Crying Lightning" keeps the seal of the band, along with the experimentation of Last Shadow Puppets. Listen to here .
(03) Pearl Jam - Got Some (9 / 10): Not released yet and we have heard only the emission of Conan O 'Brien on NBC. This video has been watched by millions of music lovers. "Got Some" belongs to the new album of the band "Backspacer", which is expected on September 20. This is a song that reminds me of times "Vs" and "Ten". Watch here and tell me your opinion.
(04) Manic Street Preachers - This Joke Sport Severed (9 / 10): The "This Joke Sport Severed " gives a different note on the album with the lyric (excellent!) and finish with searches throughout the course of it. One of the songs that stand out this year, not a single like "Green Day - Know your enemy". Listen and download here .
(05) Kasabian - Thick as thieves (8 / 10) : In an excellent album, in "Thick as thieves' is one of the quiet moments with respect to most of the songs, but with very strong super Chorus. Back in the 60s - 70s in a Zeros way. Listen to the entire album here .

The "All for the best" is Miracle Legion's and you can listen to it here .
