Some Girls Featuring Karen O, Sleater-Kinney, and more
BY CARLY CARIOLI

To download an MP3, right-click the song title and select "save as."

Some Girls featuring Karen O, "The DNA Will Have Its Say" (Epitaph) (reg. required)

Adidas’s newest pitchwoman strikes again, this time going gargle for gargle with former Give Up the Ghost frontman Wes Eisold on the title track of his spazzcore supergroup’s Epitaph debut — and she gives him all he can handle. "When we did vocals, I threw up on a couch and passed out," Eisold recalls, "so I don’t even remember it too well."

Headphones, "Pink and Brown" (Suicide Squeeze)

Synth-pop side project by accredited indie-rocker? Well, it worked for the Postal Service. On this track from Pedro the Lion frontman David Bazan’s Headphones (out May 10), the buzz is all antiqued and analog: warmer, fuzzier . . . and duller. Bazan is still incapable of writing a less-than-brilliant chorus: you’ll just wish he’d saved this one for PTL.

Sleater-Kinney, "Entertain" (Sub Pop)

"If you’re here ’cause you want to be entertained, go away, please go away," Carrie Brownstein seethes through clenched teeth as her Rickenbacker feedback scares lizards out of trees on this teaser from S-K’s The Woods (out May 24). Then Corin Tucker loses her shit as if it were Call the Doctor time. So . . . guess this means no cameo on The OC, huh?

Spoon, "I Turn My Camera On" (Merge)

From Gimme Fiction (out May 10): Britt Daniel sets his falsetto to Bee Gees, orders up a rubber-soled three-note bass line from DFA central casting, and vamps till the dance floor caves in.

Stephen Malkmus, "Baby C’mon" (Matador)

Now that the Jicks have been ditched — from the marquee, if not entirely from Face the Truth (out May 24) — Malkmus cuts loose by borrowing the chords to "Undone (The Sweater Song)," cranking the flange to 11, forgetting not to rock.
