[Listen] Deap Vally - "(She's A) Wanderer"

A few days ago we offered up a brand new track from Alabama Shakes which is to be used on Volume 4 of True Blood's new soundtrack release. Today we get another brand new gift from the vampire loving show from Deap Valley. I may not be a fan of the show but what does that matter when the musical gems they feature on it are this damn good. Titled "(She's A) Wanderer" it's raw and guttural from start to finish. it's making me doubt my choices it TV shows. Check out the duo's track below courtesy of CoS.

True Blood: Music from the HBO Original Series Volume 4  is out on the 28th of May via ATO Records.

[Watch] Biffy Clyro - "Black Chandelier" (Live in London)

I have a habit of playing music I love far too much. This year I've done it with a few albums already. This image kind of sums up my feelings towards music in general. Anyway with that in mind I've seriously given Biffy Clyro's latest studio release, Opposites, some heavy play. Multiple plays on a weekly basis and when it was released it was pretty much all I listened to for a month. I'm not kidding. Yet I still absolutely love it, and it's nice to see Biffy still offering up fans new stuff for fans on the regular. At the start of the month they released a live video of them performing "Different People" live at London's 20,000 capacity O2 arena, and today they give us a peek at them in the same venue rocking through "Black Chandelier. Check out the video at the top.

Opposites is out now.

[Listen] Stream Disclosure's Infectious New Single "When A Fire Starts To Burn"

Disclosure continue to impress. Seriously, these brothers have yet to release a track that I dislike. They just know how to get my booty shakin' with infectious beats. Their newest cut "When A Fire Starts To Burn" is one of their best yet, a clubby number met with a repeating vocal sample ("When a fire starts to burn, right / and it starts to spread"). It's pulsating, four-on-the-floor goodness. I'm as excited as ever for their debut album Settle to drop.

Settle is out on June 3rd.

As promised earlier in the week when posting the video "Diaper Money" from The Lonely Island, they've returned once again, following up "Spring Break Anthem" and "I Fucked My Aunt". Enlisting the help of Solange for an equal parts hilarious to educational track titled "Semicolon". Who doesn't like learning when you're getting a laugh at the same time especially when it's about "a comma and a fucking dot; semicolon". Watch the lyric video below.

[Watch] Arctic Monkeys debut new song "Do I Wanna Know?" Live in Ventura

Remember 2012's Record Store release from Arctic Monkeys? It was the glorious and air drum worthy "R U Mine?". Since then though we've only had a few whispers of what the guys are up to via Matt Helders Mother. They're recording in the Desert but as to what new material is sounding like, that was a mystery. Until today that is. 

Last night the Sheffield lads done good performed in Ventura, California and brought along with the a brand new track which has a few names being thrown around. The most popular one from a little dig around online though seems to be "Do I Wanna Know?". As is the norm these days, someone was on hand with their phone to record the entire thing. You can check it out below. We'll keep digging and try to find some better footage throughout the day. Arctics fans may also be pleased to hear that it sounds like the band dug into their back catalogue good and proper too, playing "Old Yellow Bricks" for the first time in years and some other oldies being thrown into the mix too. Check out the set list after the jump.

[Watch] Empire of the Sun Perform "Alive" During their First Concert in Two Years

Empire of the Sun are nothing if not theatrical. The Australian duo are known for their ridiculous outfits and fantastical presence, as evident in their recent video for the single "Alive." That theatricality lends itself perfectly to the stage, and last night the band performed for the first time in two years. The concert, taking place at House of Blues in Dallas, was bright with neon colors and vibrant outfits and Yahoo!'s On the Road series caught footage of them performing their new single. It was flashy, glamorous and downright awesome. Check out their performance of "Alive" below.

The band's sophomore album Ice on the Dune is out on June 18th.

[Watch] The xx and Jessie Ware Cover Stardust's "Music Sounds Better With You" Live in Berlin

There's been a lot of love lately for Stardust's lone hit single "Music Sounds Better With You" (see Giraffage's fantastic remix here), and that continued last night. During The xx-led Night + Day concert in Berling, the band brought fellow Londoner Jessie Ware onstage to help them with a unique cover of the song. Ware's vocals add a touch of sensuality to The xx's atmospheric instrumentation. Let's hope a studio version hits the web soon. For now, you can watch the live version below.

The next and final Night + Day concert takes place at London's Hatfield House, with The xx leading a bill that includes performances from Solange, Poliça, Kindness and Mount Kimbie.
