What I'm Listening To....

The whole Radioactive Dreams soundtrack is brilliant. It's a bizarre little film about two lads who have grown up in a bunker sheltering them from a nuclear apocalypse and finally leave the bunker with the ambition to be detectives like they've read about. (You can see it here if you're interested. There's no DVD release planned.) Though the movie's sort of fun, even while watching it I couldn't help but be more interested in the music in the background. This is just one of the awesome songs on that album:

XTC - "Living Through Another Cuba"
I find this 80s band a bit hit and miss, but there's something very different about their music. I first came across them with the song "Making Plans For Nigel". I've always found something really catchy about this particular song.

The Foals - "Cassius"
I'm regretting purchasing two albums by this band as their debut album "Antidotes" contains by far their best material. This is the opening track and its just such a fun and exciting song, reminding me somewhat of local ska-punk bands when I was still in school.
