It’s been a long wait — some 24 years, in fact — but the surviving members of The Cars are back with a new album, ‘Move Like This,’ and RollingStone.com has an exclusive stream in advance of next week’s release.

Bassist Peter Hook appeared on British radio today to premiere two tracks off the upcoming EP of Joy Division re-recordings — including his new take on an unfinished Joy Division track called ‘Pictures in My Mind.’

Thanks to a well-timed tweet from Chain of Flowers, we were tipped to this mesmerizing cover of The Cure’s ‘Disintegration’ by Los Angeles dream-pop duo Snow & Voices just in time to squeeze it onto the playlist for this week’s radio show. And now you can download the MP3.

With the release of ‘Remixes 2: 81-11’ still more than a month away, Depeche Mode continues to treat fans to sneak previews of the disc’s new mixes, and the latest is an overhaul of the 1981 track ‘Puppets’ by Norwegian duo Röyksopp.

The Pet Shop Boys last week released their latest single ‘Together’ — the lone new song on last year’s U.K. best-of ‘Ultimate’ — in the U.S. for the first time digitally in a number of different configurations.

Can’t say we know a lot about Birmingham, Ala.-based indie-folk outfit The Great Book of John, but we were knocked out by their raw, bluesy cover of the classic INXS ballad ‘Never Tear Us Apart.’ Watch the video and download a free MP3.

Fans of Kate Bush this morning got another sneak peak at her forthcoming collection ‘Director’s Cut’ when the singer released a sample of a third track off the album, ‘Flower of the Mountain.’

Out on tour in support of his new mostly acoustic solo album ‘Several Shades of Why’, Dinosaur Jr frontman J Mascis hauled his acoustic up to the studios of Minneapolis’ 89.3 The Current to perform a trio of songs live on the air earlier this month.

Last week, as Peter Murphy’s just-completed U.S. tour made its way through Pittsburgh, the former Bauhaus frontman dropped by the studios of 91.3 FM WYEP for a nearly 40-minute on-air interview and live acoustic performance — which can be streamed in its entirety.

For the third straight Monday, Depeche Mode has dropped a new track off its upcoming remix compilation — ‘Remixes 2: 81-11,’ featuring contributions from former members Vince Clarke and Alan Wilder, and due June 7.

A week after revealing the tracklist to her forthcoming collection ‘Director’s Cut’ — featuring 10 retooled songs form 1989’s ‘The Sensual World’ and 1993’s ‘The Red Shoes’ — Kate Bush today dropped a sample of a second track off the album, ‘Lilly.’

After Perry Farrell debuted a brand-new Jane’s Addiction track on South American radio during the run-up to the band’s headlining appearance at the inaugural Lollapalooza Chile, the track spread across the web — so the group decided to give away the finished version for free.

Kate Bush returned to the studio to record all-new vocals for the 10 tracks off ‘The Sensual World’ and ‘The Red Shoes’ that comprise her forthcoming collection ‘Director’s Cut,’ the singer announced today, revealing both the set’s tracklist and its first single — a reworked ‘Deeper Understanding.’
