No Rankings, No Best New, Just what we're digging.
Why? - Jonathan's Hope
I was talking to a friend last night about Yoni Wolf's songwriting and we came to the conclusion that in our combined lifetimes, we could never write a song like one of Yoni's. From his neurotic images that stick forever in your memory to the weird, structural shifts and insane rhythmic layering, Why?'s approach to songwriting is truly unique. You can catch the genre-melting Cincinnati dudes at Austin's Funfunfun Fest.
Ty Segall - The Hill
Damn Ty Segall, how'd you get so prolific? Twins is his third release of the year - and surprise! - it's killer. Bridgett Dawson of Thee Oh Sees joins Ty for this evil romp off his new record.
Tame Impala - Keep on Lying
"Keep on Lying" starts in media res 'cause they don't have time to fuck around. Lonerism is too good for fucking around.
Laurie Anderson - Language is a Virus
Imagine if Laurie Anderson was your grandma? That scene in Beetlejuice where the fam' jams out to the Banana Boat Song would happen every family outing. And you wouldn't even need help from Alec Baldwin's ghost.
