Source:Phoenix spoke with us about the making of their new LP, Bankrupt!, from deadlines to finish to experimenting with new sounds. “You record for so long that you have no sense of what you are doing. I remember hitting, like, seven snares at the same time on a drum machine. That stupidity was possible because of the success of the previous album,” singer Thomas Mars told us.

Creep - Radiohead
Sometimes you wonder why this song gets played on the radio so many times.
And sometimes, you are so happy this song is playing and you just rock to it.
Button For Punishment - Everybody Else
2009 nostalgia. Everybody Else was one of my favorite bands at the time and I loved this song. The song is also easy and nice to play on the acoustic guitar as well.
One click from Reddit and I discovered this Korean musical duo. Exceptional pianist, wonderful singer. I know nothing about the language, so I have no idea what she’s singing about. I know what I hear is nothing short of incredible and heartfelt. And pleasant.
I listen to a lot of music, but I guess my ears missed the 75 artists whose albums you can vote for as the best album of 2012. However, I did recognize some of the tracks and artists that were calculated as “most blogged” so I guess I shouldn’t feel too out of the loop :D
The top tracks and most-blogged artists of 2012 have been revealed, and now we want to hear from you—which albums will you remember the year by?
We’ve partnered with Tumblr to create GIFs of 75 releases that music bloggers have been talking about this year. Visit the Zeitgeist Tumblr and reblog to vote for your favorites in the ultimate list of the best music of 2012.
Voting closes on December 20.
(Special thanks to Mr. GIF, Flux Machine, Max Capacity, and Scorpion Dagger for the GIFs)

Try - P!nk
Just an example of the awesome that is P!nk. There is simplicity in the lyrics of the song, but they give you a real, but strong and encouraging message.
