Armand Hammer

The diabolical duo of Elucid and Billy Woods, AKA Armand Hammer, is back with new album "Snakes & Ladders," late night hip-hop for headphones and dark spaces.  Check out "Nightswim" below and grab a copy of the LP here from BackwoodzStudioz before they're gone.

One Wax Wing

Friend of the blog One Wax Wing dropped a new EP of chilled out, bedroom electro-sounds a few weeks ago.  Think of it as music to read to, music to write to, music to study to, or just something to close your eyes with and zone out for a little while. Listen to "Among the Jumbled Heap" below and download the "Aether Seep" EP here from the artist.

Daily Jam - Punk Rock Girl

I have been posting these Daily Jams to this blog since 2019, so it is much to my surprise that i've never done The Dead Milkmen's "Punk Rock Girl" before.  It's one of my quirky favorites.  So here we go.  Listen to "Punk Rock Girl" below, our Daily Jam.

Vanishing Twin

Dig on the trippy, krautrock and kosmische psych indebted new jam from UK band Vanishing Twin with "Twist (Version)" below.  And be sure to download it here from Fire Records.

Daily Jam - Turn Around

We did the Weird Al version of Devo yesterday.  Today, let's do the real thing.  Here's the band's great B-side "Turn Around," our Daily Jam.

Sky Problem

Ooh, i wish i had caught this one a couple of weeks back.  Eerie, autumnal vibes abound on the ethereal "Sky Problem" by Sky Problem.  I love when a band has a song that's their name.  Check it out below and download it here from Geographie.

Bleu Reine

Here's a cool and moody new alt-rock track from Paris-based artist Bleu Reine.  Listen to "I Bet You Bet on Me" below and download it here from Geographie.

untitled (halo)

LA;s untitled (halo) is one of those band names i've seen bouncing around at SXSW before that i make a note to check out, but for whatever reason, just never seem to catch.  I'll have to remedy that if they make it back as i'm really digging the throwback '90s alt-rock/pop/electronic hybrid thing they've got going for them on their just released debut full-length, self-titled album.  Check out "Aimee Lou Wood Freestyle" below and get the record here from Dirty Hit. 

Daily Jam - Dare to Be Stupid

Back in September, we took the boys to go see Weird Al live at the Moody Center in Austin.  I've seen him a few times before, but this was the first for my kids.  And it was kind of amazing just how many aging Gen X and Millennial parents were there with their children in tow.  We're all trying to bond.  Anyway, "Dare to Be Stupid" is probably one of my favorites of the artist because it sounds more like Devo than Devo sounds like Devo.  Listen below, our Daily Jam.
