    With their new post punk sound in the vein of Fugazi, The Blamed have put out four more solid songs. Happily surprised am I when I catch up to the b-side band of this split — Noisetoys. The Denmark natives (who sing perfect English) are more than just noise, (but) harmonious vocals that reach the heavens with their worship. Their sound is that of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and some of that "new" garage rock that's so hip right now.
