Novidades musicais californianas

Ontem, o No Doubt divulgou seu novo single depois de longo hiato longe dos estúdios. Settle Down é a primeira música de trabalho do álbum Push and Shove, que deve chegar em breve.

O clipe foi dirigido por Sophie Muller (diretora que já trabalhou outras vezes com a banda, inclusive tendo dirigido o vídeo-hit Don’t Speak) e a música traz tudo o que o fã de Gwen Stefani e cia. quer: batida pop/ska, os deliciosos overdubs vocais de Gwen e um refrão pra lá de pegajoso. Tem tudo pra virar mais um hit da banda.

E, não menos californiano, o The Killers também se prepara para lançar seu disco novo, Battle Born, em setembro. O primeiro single, Runaways, foi divulgado há pouco tempo. Ouça a música e veja um trailer do álbum novo.
