Sounds Like

Lady Gaga's new 2011 single "Born This Way"

sounds like.....

Madonna's 2006 "Express Yourself"


but we already know that Gaga wishes Madonna would just go away so she could plagiarize all her stuff and still say she's original and gaga.

Kid Cudi's 2010 "Wild'n Cuz I'm Young"

sounds like.....

Diplo's 2009 Smash a Kangaroo. Sorta.

NEW RADIOHEAD ALBUM


The one and only Radiohead has just announced their new album, The King of Limbs, to be released digitally this Saturday. You can also pre-order the physical album, which comes with 2 vinyls, a CD, a digital download, and hundreds of pieces of artwork for May 19th.

Just like In Rainbows, Radiohead has announced their album only days before their release. It was especially surprising given that they've been mostly off the map recently besides lead singer Thom Yorke's appearance at Glastonbury festival in England and some blog posting.

The website Radiohead is using to sell the album, thekingoflimbs.com, has apparently been overloaded with visitors and is very slow to respond. On the site you can also buy just a digital copy for $9.00 versus the $48.00 for the entire set.

On another note, check out this conspiracy theory about Radiohead's album releasing pattern.

Be featured on IMA!

Hi lovely readers,

 I'm making a super short promotion video for IMA and I'm in need of some footage from you guys! If you're interested in appearing on IMA, please send super short clips of yourself (from the shoulders up) saying "IMA" (as Imma, not I.M.A.) and/or "I'm a _______." Fill in the blank with whatever you want - I'm a musician, I'm a fashionista, I'm a music aficionado, for example.

Send to indiemusicapp@gmail.com and I'll put in as many clips of you guys as I can :) Thanks for the help!

JAMES BLAKE ALBUM HAS ARRIVED (and others)


You can buy the digital copy of James Blake's self-titled, full-length album RIGHT NOW. If you're in the UK this is old news, as his album was released yesterday. Regardless, check it out. His last three LPs were amazing, and his newest full-length deserves a listen.

In other news, the more established electronic act Cut Copy has just released another album, Zonoscope.
