Music News: Dragonette New Song + Album Date

Thank God this group is still going at it. They promised that they would come back into the limelight, and here they are again. Dragonette is the best thing to come out of Canada ever. Suck it, Bieber.

Though not officially, the group has already released a new single virally online, and they are at it once again with the brand spankin' new "Rocket Ship." Chock full of innuendos (or maybe I'm just perverted), this single goes back to the original feel of the group from their debut album. The song is a bit more low key and a lot less electropop than what you may be used to from them, but it still has the distinctive vocals and provoking lyrics that any fan of them would be accustomed to. Check it out for yourself.




And if that isn't enough to satisfy even the most curious, their recent mailer has announced not only the title of their third album, but also the release date!

"Dragonette are happy to announce their third album! Bodyparts will be released this September. Official release dates by territory:
US + Canada: Sept 25
Europe: Sept 24"

BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE!

" That's a lyrical taste of another new track on Bodyparts called "Untouchable," and we're presenting a unique opportunity to you. Head over to Talenthouse to see the full lyrics of the song, and and then get your creative caps on. We invite you to use these lyrics and create your own version of the song. Add music, do it as poetry, make it a film - whatever you like - make it yours! The winning entry will be the official b-side to a future single, and we'll give you a fair piece of your version (depending on what you do) if we release it. The contest ends August 17th, so pull out your guitars, laptops, hairbrushes, microphones and get recording! You can find all details here:

That's right. A contest. I personally showed my share of fail during Kwanza Jones' rap contest, so I won't be entering this one, but I know I have some talented readers out there that might want to take a stab. What can it hurt -- I mean other than your dignity. Yes, I removed the rap off of Youtube. Stop trying to find it.
