Today I thought I'd take a look at a punk rock band from Jacksonville, FL called Whole Wheat Bread. Bomb's Away (iTunes MP3) is the first single from their second full length album Hearts of Hoodlums. According to Wikipedia, "This album is said to have received help from Lil Jon, Tim Armstrong, MURS, and Mike McColgan." Enjoy!
John Mellencamp was one of the best rock artists of the late 70's and 80's when he was pumping out hit after hit like Jack and Diane (Video), Hurts So Good (Video) and Pink Houses (Video). Lately, he's still been recording and releasing albums, but his music has become much more political in nature. Because of this, he hasn't enjoyed the type of success he used to on the charts, but he's at a point in his career where he doesn't have to worry about the charts. I'm sure he's made plenty of money over the years.
His last top ten hit in the U.S. was Key West Intermezzo (I Saw You First) from his 1996 Mr. Happy Go Lucky album. It peaked at #10 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock charts. Troubled Land is the second single from his latest album called Life, Death, Love and Freedom. The first single from the album was My Sweet Love (Watch Video), which peaked at #25 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary charts.
U2 is back with a good one. Get On Your Boots (iTunes MP3) is the first single from their new No Line On The Horizon (Amazon Box Set) album. It's already a #1 hit in Ireland, and it's at #5 on the Billboard Modern Rock charts right now as well as #37 on the Hot 100. Below is the official music video, and over at Hi-Definition Music Videos, you can watch a wide-screen HD version of the boys playing this song live on rooftop in London. Enjoy!
The Tonight Show with Jay Leno has added a new Outdoor Concert series, and last night The Fray were the featured performers. Here they are performing You Found Me (iTunes MP3) live on the show. Enjoy!
