A Year In Pop: Week Two

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

After last week's appetiser the chart gets back to feasting (on its young) - THIRTEEN new entries to rate and contemplate, we see now why Stevem's monthly polls were so huge. Possible points of interest include the BBC's "Sound of 07" Mika with the highest new entry, and nu-ravers The Klaxons getting their first proper hit. And of course download revolutionaries KOOPA.

[Poll #908393]

I have downloaded all of these and will give them an listen and report in the comments thread. But don't take my word for it!

Koopa do sound 'Murrican, don't they? Sorta the wanky mealymouth pop punk whine, like Blink-182 (maybe?), 'cept much worse and with Brit accents. A good average OK melody that they're ruining.
