Daily Jam - On the Way to the Club

I guess it's kind of a lesser Blur album, but i still really dig "Think Tank," even with Graham Coxon's absence.  It's got a certain kind of groove to it that separates from the rest of the band's output.  Listen to "On the Way to the Club" below, our Daily Jam.

Zetra

UK metal-tinged goth synth pop duo Zetra just dropped new track "Adrena" yesterday along with a couple of remixes.  Listen below and download it all here from Nuclear Blast.

Daily Jam - I Saw a Ray

Here's some lovely drone from Grouper to...well, not to get you started this morning.  This kind of dreamy fuzz isn't really meant to get you moving or anything.  Let's say it's to get you settled in.  Listen to "I Saw a Ray" below, our Daily Jam.

Genital Shame

I love that i saw that there is an artist called Genital Shame and pretty much guessed exactly what they would sound like.  I don't meant that derogatively at all either.  I do love it, a mix of death and black metal from LA's Erin Dawson.  Listen to "I Want to Die Before You" below and get the "Wellness Plan" LP here from The Flenser.

Daily Jam - Sleeping Bag

Feeling a tad overwhelmed today after last night's election results.  I'm really proud of my state for finally (finally!) voting a lot of those horrible fuckers out of office.  And i'm going to celebrate, at least for a couple of minutes, with a song from one of my favorite Beck albums.  Listen to "Sleeping Bag" below, our Daily Jam.

The Cat's Miaow

Australian band The Cat's Miaow began over 30 years ago as a project between friends, recording lo-fi bedroom pop songs onto a 4-track recorder and playing shows in their native Melbourne for a few years.  Then they faded into obscurity, revered by those few in the know (not me unfortunately) until their material was compiled and released a couple years ago.  A reunion followed and now we've got a new album, the band's first official full-length release, with "Why You Smiled and Turned Away."  The whole thing is lo-fi, psych-tinged, jangle pop bliss.  Listen to the wonderful title track below and get the LP here from Slumberland Records.

The Thorn

Here's a cool and fuzzy new track from UK psych folk outfit The Thorn.  "Darkest Part of Winter" leans more into the psych side of things and feels like autumn between bursts of crunchy guitar riffs.  Check it out below and download it here.
