2. City of Thieves

A writer visits his retired grandparents to document their experience during the infamous siege of Leningrad. His grandfather tells his tale reluctantly, and the result is the captivating odyssey of two young men surviving against desperate odds. Set within the monumental events of history, City of Thieves is an intimate coming-of-age tale with an utterly contemporary feel for how boys become men.

4. We Started Nothing

Jules de Martino and Katie White aka The Ting Tings unleash their distinctive brand of fun, kooky, cool electro pop in this their debut release We Started Nothing. Dubbed the Sonny and Cher of Salford, North England, The Ting Tings have undoubtedly started something with their infectious, outrageous first singles Great DJ and That's Not My Name. Listen up.

 
3. Yes!

Yes! is full of practical tips based on recent academic research that shows how the psychology of persuasion can provide valuable insights for anyone interested in improving their ability to persuade others - whether in the workplace, at home or even on the internet. It combines the counter-intuition of Freakonomics with the popularising of Does Anything Eats Wasps?

 

5. Weezer (Red Album)

Power pop's clown princes set the internet abuzz about their new Red Album with the phenomenally popular viral video for Pork & Beans - a mash up featuring YouTube celebs. As a whole, the album is a sonic departure for Weezer, with producers Rick Rubin and Jacknife Lee stepping in and leader Rivers Cuomo handing the mic over to his band mates.
