Australian nice-guy-with-acoustic-guitar Ben Lee has covered the entirety of the recently released Against Me! album, New Wave (Sire), available to stream or download for free at his MySpace page or his blog.

Lee decided to go with Ben Lee Sings Against Me! New Wave for the title, although the reasoning behind that decision remains a mystery.

Adam and Jeremy Say: We Guarantee at Least Three References to Punk Rock.
There is a load of great music that found its way to your local Plan 9 today...
Against Me! - New Wave - Yeah the hype keeps building... if you like NOFX, the Dead Kennedys, and Rage Against the Machine you will totally love these guys!
Interpol - Our Love To Admire - The Joy Division comparisons will not stop with new album, but that's a good thing if you were already into them... and if you don't know who they are then this is a good time to find out you love them.
Bad Religion - New Maps of Hell - Ever heard the cliche "don't judge a book by its cover"? Well sometimes that's total rubbish, but even if they are a bit antagonistic they have payed all the dews and deserve a listen from you.
Spoon - Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga - Seriously I had to count the number of "Ga's" when I was typing this... but no matter... if you have ever found yourself in some hipster boutique humming something about "the way you get by" or "turning your camera on" then you are a fan of this band and you did not even know it... find out why now.
