Rumor has it French electro nutters Mustard Pimp grew up as metalheads. Videos of them playing festivals in Municipal Waste tees and slam dancing behind the DJ booth appear to confirm this, as does this neck-snapping, gun-toting, mosh-stirring reboot of Eagles Of Death Metal's "Secret Plans." More aggro rave fodder can be found on their new Rock Paper Scissors EP, which is out now through the similarly converted heads at Dim Mak.

Technology and relationships don’t really go well together. Tablets, smartphones, laptops, the attention vortex of the Internet–an addiction to these things can tear people apart, and this is the essential premise of Solvent’s “Loss For Words.” Some food for thought there, but lest we send you away without an MP3, here’s Solvent’s own CompuRhythm mix, wherein his synth-pop receives a slight facelift of blips and bleeps.

"Wait Up (Boots Of Danger)" might as well be indie whippersnappers Tokyo Police Club's calling card: barreling rhythms, clanging guitars, a melody you're not forgetting after one listen–these are things the Canadian foursome do very well.

Both incarnations are below; Tokyo Police Club's new album, Champ, is out June 8 through Mom + Pop.
