Kvelertak

I have a tendency to like my metal dark and gloomy, cacophonous dirges and symphonies of doom...but goddamn, the new album from Norway's Kvelertak is fun.  "Nattesferd," out this week on Roadrunner, is a ferocious blaze of a record, compiling killer, almost classic, old school riffs, a powerful and propulsive rhythm section, and guttural vocal blasts into the ultimate high-octane, party burner.  You'll want to speed through the streets with your windows open or slam and dance around the garage with your buddies to this one.  Listen to the title track below.

Eagulls

Hey, how did i miss that we're getting a new album from the moody, post-punk Leeds band Eagulls this week?  I must be slipping in my middle age.  "Ullages" is out on Friday via Partisan Records, and finds the band doing what they do best, crafting gloomy, hard edged post-punk jams that recall the best of groups like Echo and The Bunnymen and the like.  Listen to "My Life in Rewind" below.

Daily Bowie - Prisoner of Love

That's right.  We're going with Tin Machine era Bowie for our selection today.  Listen to "Prisoner of Love" below, your Daily Bowie.
