The perfect place to crash for a hub of news and reviews on all the Music, Films, TV and Games that are making a noise in short bit size pieces and all in one place on a weekly schedule. If it's a smash hit, it's on crash hub.

Ok, after the music overload of last week, I have found a whacking great number of news stories. 1, to be precise...
Madness Preview Oui Oui Si Si Ja Ja Da Da
Very soon, Madness will be releasing their awesomely named new album Oui Oui Si Si Ja Ja Da Da. To drum up a bit of excitement for the album, you can now listen to 5 tracks from the upcoming album if you have spotify. Click here to have a look.
Will see you next week, hopefully with a bit more to talk about... Tom
Long time, no music! I'm sorry we haven't been keeping Crash Hub up to date over the past few weeks, we've been busy...being busy! But hey, we're back, and we're hoping to broaden Crash Hub out a bit and bring you a bit more exciting info, reviews and general opinions.
Anyways, music. Now for a blitz of everything I've missed over the donkey year we haven't been blogging...
Adele Does Bond
While writing this I'm listening to Adele's knew single Skyfall, which is to be the theme tune for the upcoming Bond film of the same title. I'd say the best word to describe it is probably "fine". It's a pretty average Bond anthem, and does nothing new to try and be a bit more creative as Jack White and Alicia Key's Another Way To Die did for Quantum of Solace. However, it's very traditional, and is a welcome addition to the 007 playlist.

Labrinth and Emili Sandé Duet
Labrinth's new single featuring Emili Sandé, Beneath Your Beautiful, has landed. And again, it is something radically different from what Lab has done before. I personally really like it, and the addition of Emili Sandé is an absolute treat. My only criticism would be that the video is pretty dull, but this doesn't hinder the music at all.
Brian May and Kerry Ellis Go Unplugged
Legendary Queen axe-man Brian May and West End star Kerry Ellis are embarking on another tour together this November. The duo will be performing 11 intimate, acoustic gigs across the country to raise money for the Born Free Foundation.
May and Ellis will also be releasing a cover of the classic song Born Free, the theme tune written by John Barry from the 1966 film of the same name.
While I was away, alot of new stuff has hit the shelves. The biggest one has probably been Muse's rather unpredictable The 2nd Law; but lots of other cool stuff has appeared including Ellie Goulding's Halcyon, Diana Krall's Glad Rag Doll, Van Morrison's Born To Sing: No Plan B, The Overtones' Higher, Richie Sambora's Aftermath of the Lowdown, The Killers' Battle Born and Green Day's ¡Uno!.
Madness New Album Release Date
Madness' new album Oui Oui Si Si Ja Ja Da Da has now got a release date. The album, which features the single Death of a Rude Boy, will be released on the 29th October.
Ok, I think I've covered everything, even if it is all a bit a brief. If you feel I've missed something, let us know in the comments...
