"We are really old" - These guys

Red Hot Chili Peppers are giving away a free EP that includes a couple live tracks. It’s not totally free though. You do have to sacrifice an email address. But if you are in to Red Hot Chili Peppers that’s probably a small price to pay, right? It’s a little steep for me but this album was never meant for me.

The tracks on the EP are as follows:
“Look Around”
“Dani California”
“Monarchy Of Roses”
“If You Have To Ask”
“Give It Away”

"We should get haircuts" - These guys

Nada Surf, one of the most underrated (ever?) bands and a personal favorite, has a new song out today! That’s fucking awesome. Sorry for the language but that is just some really great news.

The band will be releasing a new album, The Stars Are Indifferent to Astronomy, in January of next year but since that is forever away, the band and NPR have consipired to bring us a new track well ahead of the release date. Awesome. And you know what? The new track, “When I Was Young,” is fucking great. I am in love with it. I’ve listened to it about 10,023 times since this morning and I’ll probably listen to it 123,527 more times before the end of the day. And to make it even more awesome, NPR is letting you download it.

"We come from the land of sweaters" - These guys

Hey! Want some free Frightened Rabbit? Sure you do. The band is great so why wouldn’t you? That’s what I thought.

Frightened Rabbit is giving away a free EP with three new songs on it. Awesome. But, in order to get this free new EP you do have to sign up for the band’s mailinglist. A small price to pay for three very good songs I think. And this EP has some special guests on it as well. The second track, “Fuck This Place,” features Tracyanne from Camera Obscura and the third song, “,” features Scottish folk legend Archie Fisher.

Download the EP here.

What a way to start a morning!
