When Saints Go Machine: Love And Respect ft. Killer Mike
Killer mike rules, this beat rules and the video rules.
1994!: never into it, definitely over it
1994! is a 2 piece punk band from Lancaster PA that fucking rules, enough said. Go pay what you wish for this album on their bandcamp.
Turbowolf: Let’s Die
Listen past the first 60 seconds and then you will understand what Turbowolf is about. They’ll remind you of a highly evolved Black Sabbath. The video for this song is super rad too.
Kvelertak: Bruane Brenn
We read a review of the new Kvelertak album Meir on an unnamed metal blog and they said it was a sophomore slump. Well fuck them this shit rules. Check out the rad video. They are also streaming the whole album here.
Blood Sister: Why Would You
From the ashes of Night Manager a new Blood Sister has risen. Great sinister fuzz rock with a kewl video.
Great Red Spots: Wolf Queen
Great Red Spots is a great two piece from Philadelphia that will be playing this Friday the 15 at Kung Fu Necktie along with DEATHSNAKE. Download this track for free off their bandcamp.
Single Mothers: Christian Girls
Single Mothers broke up in 2009 – and have been playing shows ever since. Buy this EP off band camp for super cheap.
The Growlers: Graveyards Full
The Growlers rule, their singer Brooks Nielsen rules, this video of ‘Wandering Eyes’ rules. They have a new album that is coming out 2013 and it is going to rule.
Coheed and Cambria: Key Entity Extraction II – Hollywood The Cracked
Coheed and Cambria are back with another chapter in their epic tale. The album continues the mix of metal riffs and cosmic landscapes we’ve come to love from these guys but this track has a certain twang that fits them but you wouldn’t usually expect.
A Lot Like Birds: THINK DIRTY OUT LOUD
A Lot Like Birds is a ‘post-hardcore’ band from California with some gnarly kick. You get a sense of a little Fall of Troy mixed with some Number 12 Looks Like You with a even further style change with clean vocals by Kurt Travis from the band Dance Gavin Dance. Get ready for the Equal Visions record coming 2013.
Immortal: Sons of Northern Darkness
10 years ago right before Sons Of Northern Darkness was released Iscariah left Immortal leaving all of us to believe it was the end. After wondering in a black metal desert for 5 years, they reformed in 2007. If you don’t know who Immortal is they are these guys and also these guys.
Pat Jordache: steps (DAMAGED GOODS)
This song kinda sounds like what Soul Train would sound like if it was produced by PBS in the 1980s… and you were on acid watching it. The tones are awesome especially that shrill shaky keyboard that winds and twist throughout the whole song and you gotta love the saxophone solo. Check out this rad fan video someone made for the song.
White Denim: I Start to Run
This is a little bit of a throw back but if you’ve glossed over White Denim in the past you should take another look. This track is off their album Fits that came out in 2009 and its just one of the five album they have out now. If you’re working on something try hitting play on their whole discography and letting it go, you wont get board.
Reignwolf: Electric Love
Reignwolf aka Jordan Cook is rock n roll. There isn’t really any other good words to describe the awesomeness he holds. This track is from a live session in which he plays all the instruments and sings (including the kick drum and full kit sounds at the end) worth the watch.
White Lung: Two of You
After releasing one of this years best punk albums Sorry, White Lung is back with more riot-infused girl punk rock on their new 7″. Also on the record is a track called Hunting Holiday which is just as good. The whole 7″ is available as a full stream on their bandcamp, check it out.
Robbie Basho: Blue Crystal Fire
This is the original tracking of Blue Crystal Fire by Robbie Basho off his 1978 album Visions of The Country. Recently, How To Dress Well came out with a cover of this song but there is just something about Robbie’s signature vibrato that chills you to the bones. When Holy MTN played the BL∆CK ROOM last month they did an amazing uptempo version, watch here.
Tame Impala: Elephant
The new record from Tame Impala, Lonerism will be out next week (Oct 9). So to get you ready here’s an attitude driven jam from the upcoming record. Check out their new video for it.
Philip Glass: Rubric (Tyondai Braxton Remix)
Arguably the greatest living composer, Philip Glass is about to turn 75 and as a awesome ass birthday gift Beck and others are putting together a 2xCD remix album of his work called Rework: Philip Glass Remixed. Check out the track Rubric remixed by Battles member Tyondai Braxton.
