The Noise Pop Podcast had to put a hold on the Sophomore Slump/Sophomore Success episode; however, rest assured, it will see the light of day soon enough. In the meantime enjoy another episode that features 10 of the best tracks circulating on the internet right now. This track list ranges from the aggressive noise rock of Male Bonding to the decadent R&B pop of the Weeknd. The closing track on this episode is especially remarkable, Youth Lagoon\'s "July", it\'s one of those sad yet uplifting songs; so be careful where you listen to it, you might cry.
