Daily Jam - Sunrise

I've been doing some deep dives on YouTube lately, sifting through a veritable tsunami of obscure albums and singles from all over the world in various genres.  And the last few days have proved overwhelmingly fruitful with dozens of awesome songs coming across my eardrums to my utter delight.  Like this cool mix of psychedelia and easy listening soft rock from the Japanese group Inoue Takayuki Band.  Dig on the tranquil, melancholy sounds of "Sunrise" below, our Daily Jam.

Massive Attack & Tom Waits

I don't know about the rest of you, but i certainly wasn't expecting to hear a collaboration between Massive Attack and Tom Waits this morning.  But it's here, and it's really damn good.  "Boots on the Ground" simmers with equal parts anguish and anger, a visceral sneer and middle finger to the powers that be, and the first new work from either artist in quite a long while.  Check the track out below and get it here from Play It Again Sam.

Boards of Canada

With seemingly zero fanfare or notice today, electronic duo Boards of Canada dropped a new track this morning called "Tape 05."  And folks, it's beautiful.  Ambient waves and gentle strokes of sound to soothe you inner soul.  I've listened to it four or five times in a row now.  Check it out below and be on the lookout for what is hopefully their first new album in 13 years.

Heavy Meddo

Here's some new alt-rock from Austin band Heavy Meddo.  "Hairpiece Horseman" has a cool, lo-fi thing going on that's catchy as hell and kinda sends me back to being a teenager.  Check it out below and download it here from the band.

Daily Jam - I Celebrate Myself

I love how so many notorious Italian movies are accompanied by the lush and gorgeous film scores.  Joe D'Amato's eroti-gore entry "Emanuelle in America" fits that bill perfectly with a wonderful soundtrack from composer Nico Fidenco.  Check out the lyrical version of the film's theme song, also called "I Celebrate Myself," as performed by Italian prog band Harmonium.  Listen below, our Daily Jam.

Angine de Poitrine

Quebec band Angine de Poitrine is making a lot of noise right now.  I've been seeing their stuff pop up all over the place online, so i decided to check out the hype myself...and holy shit!  The group's got an angular post punk thing going on, but with elements of math rock, psychedelia, and so much more in the mix.  It's wild.  Listen to "Fabienk" below and try not to wiggle.  You can download the new "Vol. II" album here and pre-order an upcoming vinyl release from Levitation here.

A Somber Funeral

I love it when you hear a band name and immediately know what you're about to get into.  With Germany's A Somber Funeral, my guess was either dark and gloomy dungeon synth or noisy, lo-fi black metal.  Turns out it's both!  Check out "Maybe She's Dreaming" featuring Winterherz below and grab the "Since You Left These Shores" LP here from Silent Watcher Records.

Daily Jam - Golgotha Tenement Blues

Over 30 years later, and the soundtrack to "The Crow" still whips.  I was 15 when it came out, and it's stayed with me since.  Here's Machines of Loving Grace's contribution.  Listen to "Golgotha Tenement Blues" below, our Daily Jam.
