Friday Horror Trailer - Dead Alive

AKA "Braindead"

Daily Jam - Everybody's Got To Learn Sometime

You may know this song from Beck's version recorded for the "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" soundtrack.  Honestly, i heard that version first.  But it led me to the original 1980 track by UK band The Korgis.  And i think i might like it better.  Check out "Everybody's Got To Learn Sometime" below, our Daily Jam.

Daily Jam - Dayvan Cowboy (Odd Nosdam Remix)

Last month, electronic duo Boards of Canada dropped their first new album in 13 years.  I'm a big fan, and that release has had me revisiting the group's older material ever since.  Like this track from 2006.  Listen to Odd Nosdam's humming remix of "Dayvan Cowboy" below, our Daily Jam.

Daily Jam - Papaya

I will be going off the grid for the next few days, hopefully calming and centering myself while listening to the sounds of the ocean.  I leave you with some obscure grunge from the '90s.  Listen to Smile's "Papaya Clearance Sale" below, our Daily Jam.

Perennial

I've been fortunate enough to catch New England garage rock band Perennial a few times over the years at SXSW.  They're one of those bands that ends up playing 20 shows over a 5-day period while they're in town.  I can't even imagine.  Anyway, they've got a new album heading our way in September with "Modernism," and judging by lead-off single "What's New on the Beat Scene," it's gonna be a rocker.  Check the track out below and pre-order the LP here from Ernest Jenning Record Co.


Formal Sppeedwear

Here's some off-kilter, angular, new-wavey post-punk from UK band Formal Sppeedwear.  The group's new album "Punch Card" is out in August.  Pre-order it here from Melodic Records and listen to "Who Needs Spain Ball" below.
