Bondo

LA band Bondo have a very cool, old school post rock thing going for them, with flashes of slowcore alt-rock and plenty of fuzz.  19-year old Tommy is having a field day with this one.  Check out the moody jam "Running Back" below and snag a copy of the band's self-titled LP here from Solid Brass Records.

Resavoir

Here's a cool mix of jazz, psychedelia, and electronic music from Chicago collective Resavoir.  Dig on the trippy, tranquil sounds of "4th Cloud" featuring Gregory Uhlmann below and pre-order the upcoming "Above the Clouds" LP here from l'univers.

RIP Tim Curry

Man, so yesterday, less than 24 hours after hearing about Dolly Parton's death, we lose another icon with actor Tim Curry, one of the most versatile character actors to ever grace stage or screen.  This one stings too.  Join me and listen to Curry sing "I'm Going Home" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" below.  RIP Tim Curry.

Daily Jam - Northern Lad

I am tired.  Tired tired tired.  Here's some mellow, yet dramatic music from Tori Amos.  Listen to "Northern Lad" below, our Daily Jam.

Shudder to Think

Next month, Washington D.C. based alt-rock band Shudder to Think are dropping a new digital EP with the forthcoming "Who Sent You?" album.  Their dramatic flair remains intact.  Check out the title track below and pre-order the download here from Dischord Records.

Daily Jam - Night Life

Here's some nice, easy listening library music from Italian composer Fabio Fabor and Fabor's Orchestra, taken from the 1984 album split "Softly Softly" LP with fellow Italian artist Carlo Savina.  "Night Life" kind of sounds like the hold music in heaven.  Check it out below, our Daily Jam.

Flowers Must Die

UK psych rock band Flowers Must Die is back with a new album of cosmic freakout noise to rattle your ears and shake your souls.  Listen to new tune "Nåja" below and grab the new "Tystnad" album here (download) or here (vinyl) from Rocket Recordings.

Crying Laughing

Here's a woozy mix of jazz, post-punk, and all around general weirdness from Baltimore quintet Crying Laughing.  Dig on "Ricemeat" below and pre-order the "Talking" cassette here from Hausu Mountain Records.

Daily Jam - The Bargain Store

I wasn't originally going to post a track from Dolly today, but the circumstances being what they are, here we go.  Listen to "The Bargain Store" below, our Daily Jam.

RIP Dolly Parton

Oh man, not Dolly.  I don't know if i can think of another artist that inspired the kind of all around adoration that she did.  Metalheads and punk rockers held her in the highest regard, just like county music fans.  Religion, race, creed, political affiliation...it just did not matter.  Everyone loved her.  She was good people.  RIP Dolly Parton.
