Brooklyn Vegan has a phenomenal assortment of mp3s from The Ramones, Talking Heads, Blondie and the lot to honor the individual who was not, in fact, one of Billy Crystal's Catskills pseudonyms.

(The Modern Music) Eardrums brings us three tracks from Swedish electro-poppers If There Is Something. Electro-poppers is a word, right? Not just something served at Music Applebee's? For some reason, in the back of my mind, I keep thinking Oasis died in a plane crash eight years ago and I'm surprised whenever I see material of theirs dated after 2000. (Ain't Superstitious But...)
