Arca – “Sad Bitch”

A track off of Arca’s new album Xen that might be looked at as an interlude that should really be looked at as one of the better tracks on the record. The track feels like it has a purpose, unlike … Continue reading

Crystal Castles – “I Am Made Of Chalk”

For some reason I never bothered to get to the end of Crystal Castles’ 2010 album II, which is a shame because it had this gem at the end of it. A perfect album closer.

Ariel Pink – “Black Ballerina”

Even though I don’t really dig a lot of what this troll says on the internet and in the media, I dig this song a lot, along with the rest of the album. The chorus is just killer and has … Continue reading

Hungry Cloud Darkening – “Hold This Moment”

This record is gonna go under the radar for a lot of people this year and that’s a shame. These dudes come from the Phil Elverum camp of Anacortes, WA and have served as his touring band in the past. … Continue reading

Quirke – “Break A Mirrored Leg”

There was a huge burst of activity around this dude when this song first came out in the middle of the year, but then everything died down. I still think this is one of the best songs of the year … Continue reading

Wasn’t really too big of a fan of this band, but I’m really into this song. Hope they put out a full-length on Suicide Squeeze that’s in sort of the same vein as this. Can’t really get into a lot … Continue reading

Luluc – “Without A Face”

I’ve seen these two Aussie lovelies twice now and both shows were wonderful. They make some somber music that I’m pretty into. This came into the station when I was working in NYC, so I didn’t get to listen to … Continue reading

The Smiths – “Well I Wonder”

I’ve been listening to a lot of Smiths lately and this one and “That Joke Isn’t Funny Anymore” have been really resonating with me. For the longest time I always thought that The Queen Is Dead was my favorite Smiths … Continue reading

Porches – “Forgive” (ft. Greta Kline)

I saw this band on Saturday and they blew me away so much that I bought this 7″ for $10. It’s probably the most I’ve ever paid for so little music, but like, it’s worth it. Check this song out … Continue reading
