Song We like: The Groove by the Medium
Songs We LikeSome smart dudes from Nashville who are already famous because of a Rolling Stone guy on a motorbike bring you the entire sounds of seventies radio, smashed into one song. It sounds good. 👍
Song We Like: Cupid by DANA
Songs We LikeWeird, rhythmic and vaguely upsetting: it’s what the future (and parts of the past, like the Thrill Kill Cult) sounds like 👍
Song We like: Night Lights by Day & Dream
Songs We LikeThis is shoegaze: it goes on and on, and the colors all fade into each other, and we’re dreaming. The whole album is like that. Very nice. It’s so hard to believe that this many layers of sound were created by two people that I’m going to have to see them live to figure out how they do it.
Song We Like: Losing Form by Polly Panic
Songs We Like
In these post-Polly-Harvey days, a girl like Polly Panic needs to do more than just whack you on your head with her cello. She needs to whack you on your head with two cellos, that are mic’ed up to sound scarier than Metallica. We love it.
Song We Like: I Hear the Dead by Dolly Spartans
Songs We Like
Solid indie music that has something interesting to say. The chorus of this song makes Johnny P’s eyes roll back into his head with ecstasy.
Song We Like: Adeline by The Tenders
Songs We Like
It’s slow and fast and loud and soft, a crooning song about gun violence, with 50s harmonies and 90s guitars. Everything they attempt to do here probably shouldn’t work but it really does.
Song We Like: Two Golden Coins by Creature and the Woods
Songs We LikeYou can’t hear it yet. Because it’s not released yet. But we love it and you can hear it on our #44 podcast 😉
Song We Like: Skin by Years at Sea
Songs We Like
Expanding the range of post-hardcore with some truly interesting drums that have almost a steel-drum kind of note (John calls them ‘tinny-tommy’ drums).
Song We Like: Combat Rock by Winnie Richards/Billy Ghost
Songs We Like
Top notch lyrics plus a little-girl-singing-from-the-bottom-of-a-hole sound gets real good when they add some swingin beats and thick strings and stuff halfway through. Really nice choices.
