FrostWire: The Best KickAssTorrents (KAT) and Torrentz Alternative!

Earlier this month, KickAssTorrents (KAT) website went down and now Torrentz.eu shut down aswell. If you used those sites to search torrents, you may be wondering what alternative site or software you can use. The answer is simple: Get FrostWire!

FrostWire allows you to find, download and share files from the distributed peer-to-peer BitTorrent Network – music, movies, apps, ebooks, images. Any file type – no matter how big or small! In addition, FrostWire is also a cloud downloader – fetching results and downloading files from cloud based sources such as YouTube, SoundCloud and Archive.org.

You just enter a keyword and search, then pick a file from search results and download the file with one tap. It’s so simple. In only one place you can search and download. Other apps don’t have this amazing feature.

FrostWire is available for Windows, Mac, Linux and Android.

Alternative Music of the Week

Have a happy week! Today we want to share with you the best alternative music of the week on FrostClick.com. Take your time to listen to these bands. You’ll love them!

  1. Farahri: No Fear Just Play

    farahri-no-fear-just-play-cd-cover-itunes-cd-babyFarahri is an artist that cares about the impact her music has on her fans just as much as she cares about her music making people dance. She describes her debut album No Fear Just Play as “emotionally provocative” and also maintains a public diary on her website to keep her fans updated with her state of mind – being a friend as much as she’s a musician.

  2. Leah Lawson: Sheets

    SheeetttsSheets by singer-songwriter Leah Lawson from Nashville pivots around the idea that there can often be much beauty in human frailty. Showing herself at her most vulnerable, Leah makes her music easy to relate to while she attempts to capture the mood we all have after a disappointing day.

  3. Ty Andelman: At Your Age

    ty_andelman_at_your_age
    Ty Andelman
    originally belongs to the group Lyonn as its vocalist. At Your Age, his first solo project, is a collection of tracks that he wrote before the formation of his band that could not be used in any of their records since they differed from the band’s style of music.

  4. Fever Fever: Native Color II

    Fever_Fever_Native_Color_II
    Acoustic rock band Fever Fever‘s debut album, Aftermath, was a slick collection of hook-heavy infectiously catchy pop-rock. Their latest release, however, finds the band putting away their electric guitars and basses to give us a set of acoustic renditions of some of the most-adored gems from their discography.

  5. Kirsten Arian: This City Kills

    kirsten_arian_this_city_kills
    This week, let Kirsten Arian accompany your travels with feel-good alternative pop tunes in This City Kills. Featuring five tracks, Arian adds new flavors to give your everyday listening experience a kick of spice and freshness.
