The Flaming Lips- "The Terror"
“The Terror" is, we know now, that even without love, life goes on... there is no mercy killing,” lead singer of The Flaming Lips Wayne Coyne said once in an interview.
Yeah Yeah Yeahs- "Mosquito"
The Yeah Yeah Yeahs have always dabbled in experimentation.
Fall Out Boy- "Save Rock And Roll"
Fall Out Boy is back and they've brought with them that pop–punk sound that used to inspire our braces–clad and zit–tastic selves to scream–sing–along every time FOB came on the radio.

Music's Guide to Flinging Right
It’s a little known secret that the best day of Fling is Saturday. Don’t worry, Street’s got you covered.
Spotlight: Fling Bands in the Quad
Gigamesh Sounds Best When: Lying on your back in that existential place before shot #6 99–cent Download:"All My Life" Matthew Masurka, better known as Gigamesh, is the man behind Mike Posner’s multi–platinum single “Cooler Than Me” and just about every super–popular remix of Top 40 music out there.
Paramore—"Paramore"
You might know Paramore best from the band's 2009 hit “Misery Business,” an ass–kicking pop–punk anthem for a generation of angsty teens.
TYGA—"Hotel California"
TYGA’s new album, “Hotel California,” was released on April 9th—leaving exactly 72 hours for eager Penn students to learn all of his new lyrics before we see him in concert on Friday. These new songs will have to earn their place among favorites like “Rack City,” “Faded” and “Make it Nasty.” The new album’s cover displays a majestic tiger lounging beside a sunlit pool, because of course it would.

New Kids On The Block—"10"
Not much to add in NKOTB's tenth album
Rilo Kiley—"Rkives"
Rilo Kiley’s next release, a compilation of archival material, may be their last.
Cold War Kids—"Dear Ms. Lonelyhearts"
The Cold War Kids’ last album was a departure from the indie sound they exhibited on “Robbers & Cowards,” as they chose to go for a more mainstream sound. “Dear Miss Lonelyhearts” is a return back to their indie roots and their original sound. There’s a few misses with the title track and “Fear & Trembling,” but songs like “Miracle Mile” will pump you up just as much as “Tuxedos” will get you thinking. The album is something like the inverted giant drop at amusement parks; you start off being shot upwards then calm down a bit before another shot followed by the slow return to the ground. The title track might make you feel like the ride is malfunctioning before you hit the ground, but “Bitter Poem” brings you home safely.
DJ Profile: DJKEV
If you haven’t already recognized Kevin Crouch around campus by his incredible height and wonderful dress sense—he will definitely stand out through his music.
Tyler The Creator—"Wolf"
If you never had much faith in Tyler, the Creator’s musical abilities, now would be the time to listen to his newest album “Wolf” and bask in the glitter of his cleaner, more jazzier production.
