*Insert attempt at humourous/satirical Sugababes 'Here Come The Girls' related title*

(Calling this something related to that horrible Sugababes song would be cringe worthy, however, I am clearly not clever enough to come up with anything more original given that this post is related to female artists...)

First off: My new best friend - Little Boots.



So, Little Boots debut 'Hands' came out a few weeks ago, and I seem to have been too preoccupied with my ever increasing Dead Weather obsession to blog about it, so fear no longer, it's here.

What with Little Boots being my best friend, I am very much a fan of the release.
A perfect balance of electric disco fun, cheesey at times yes, but in all the right ways that'll see plenty of tracks becoming gay-club anthems in no time.
Fancy a dance around your room wailing singing along at the top of your voice? This is the album of the summer to do just that to.

Not that I'm guilty of that... *Ahem*

Regina Spektor - Far



A lovely, playful little album from the lady whose music is the perfect cure for 'one of those moods'. Some personal favourites being 'Folding Chair' (check her MySpace), 'Dance Anthem of the 08s' and 'The Wallet' - a sweet little tale of a lost wallet, returned thanks to a Blockbuster card inside...

Florence & the Machine - Lungs



There's been a lot of hype surrounding Ms Welch, and I think this album justifies it. Sparkly and theatrical, 'Lungs' has been on repeat in my world for days (until Horehound arrived obviously). I still find it difficult to believe that Mairead 'Queen of Noize' Nash managed her and is, essentially, the one to blame/thank (delete according to opinion) for her current number 2 album success ...
