 The key word to describe We’ve Got A Map is spontaneity,” says Leis’s bandmate, drummer Mie Araki. “Much of our current songwriting style is based on this word.”

Leis also notes the new sound of We’ve Got A Map as compared to the band’s previous album, owing this to his ongoing deliberate effort to create a more uplifting listen and to get away from the heaviness and headiness of his natural writing style.   “We had moments of that kind of celebratory joyousness on If…, but this time around I wanted the overall feel of the record to reflect this attitude,” he explains.

Probably not. But I probably should.

For this month’s installment of the Legend Series, we honor new wave sensation Blondie.

Fronted by blonde bombshell and former Playboy Bunny Debbie Harry, this band came out of the Big Apple and into our hearts! Not only was Harry a hottie, but the band’s music was bad ass.

From the Caribbean/summer feel of “Island of Lost Souls” and “The Tide is High” to rapping in “Rapture” to rocking out to “Call Me” to an implementing an Oldies sound in “Denis” to its new wave-y  ”Heart of Glass” and “Dreaming,” Blondie had its sound on lock. And you know what? You could probably argue that any of those songs could go into any other genre, just because every person’s influences came through in each song.

Harry was the perfect mixture of hot chick with a rockin’ attitude, and for that, we thank her!

Tasmania is a small, isolated place recognized by few, and in many ways exists as a vacuum. This is just one of the reasons that Enola Falls’ music is quite different, often described as “unconventional.” Since their formation several years ago, they have begun to add their name to the state’s modest list of accomplishments.

This week’s Artist of the Week is none other than Gogol Bordello. Not only does the band put on raucous shows, this band is all about the fans as it proves with its persistent touring.

Fusing gypsy music similar to Devotchka’s influences with punk influences, Gogol Bordello creates high-energy, mosh pit-inducing tunes, many of which directly focus on immigrant life. Lead singer Eugene Hütz was born in Ukraine and made his way to New York through a long journey with his family after hearing about the Chernobyl disaster. This journey included many stays in Eastern European refugee camps. This, coupled with his relationship to a line of gypsies, makes for great song writing to go along with the great music.

Gogol Bordello have acquired Artist of the Week for, as we say here in America, keepin’ it real. By sharing the struggles of immigrant life, and even pointing out that we are ALL immigrants in America (unless you’re NATIVE American, of course), Gogol Bordello reminds us that no one has the right to bring others down, even calling immigrants to revolt at points in its catalog.

In the end, it seems Gogol Bordello and Hütz are calling out for justice in America, and for fairness amongst its people so everyone can just have a damn good time. And maybe that’s just what we need!

In this edition of the Playlist we are looking back at the Beastie Boys after the passing of Adam Yauch.

Beastie Adam ‘Ad Roc’ Horovitz recently posted a message of thanks to the band’s tumblr, along with the above pic, saying:

“as you can imagine, shit is just fkd up right now. but i wanna say thank you to all our
friends and family (which are kinda one in the same) for all the love and support.
i’m glad to know that all the love that Yauch has put out into the world is coming right back at him.
thank you.

Adam Yauch was a Buddhist and a loving, positive human being. He is someone we can learn from, and are continuously inspired by.

We miss you, MCA! Your memory lives on…
