Daily Jam - Even Thieves Couldn't Lie

Squeezing a Daily Jam in real quick before i have to take Robbie to daycare and head towards downtown Austin for work.  From The Black Heart Procession's debut album "1" comes the somber, wistful, and sorrowful "Even Thieves Couldn't Lie."  I love this song so much, and it makes my heart ache every single time i listen to it.  Check it out below, our Daily Jam.

Fawning

The cool peeps over at Graveface Records have created a new subsidiary label called NeverNotGoth which, you guessed it, focuses on goth-related records both new and reissued.  Their newest (first?) release comes from Bay Area trio Fawning, whose "Too Late" EP is delirious mix of goth and dreampop.  Check out the title track below and pre-order the record here.

The Coventry

Here's some cold and gothy darkwave from The Coventry.  Listen to the single edit of "The Maze" below and get it here from SwissDarkNights.

The Stargazer Lilies

In a pairing i was not expecting to see today, the lovely Pennsylvania shoegaze act The Stargazer Lilies are teaming up with Black Moth Super Rainbow's Tobacco behind the boards for their upcoming new record "Occabot."  And going from the first taste, the creeping, oozing, reverbed "Living Work of Art," both artists seem to be represented accordingly.  It sounds like somebody left a shogaze LP out in the sun for too long.  Check it out below and pre-order the record here via Rad Cult.

Daily Jam - Late in the Day

I started a new job yesterday, and i'm trying to get used to the different hours, and the traffic during the commute, and all these other things.  And it's keeping me from posting anything until i finally get back home in the evening.  So, "Late in the Day" by Supergrass felt appropriate.  Check it out below, our Daily Jam.

Daily Jam - Chain Chain Chain

I really don't know why Red Red Meat's 1995 track "Chain Chain Chain" wasn't a bigger song.  I can literally hear it in all of the '90s aping bands coming out these days.  It deserved better from us.  We did it wrong.  So let's remedy that and listen to it now, our Daily Jam.

Jarred Glenn

I do so love a fake horror film score.  And today we get "The Curse," a retro teens in peril concept from synth wave artist Jarred Glenn.  Check out the sultry and pulsating "City of Lights" featuring a vocal assist from Glitbiter below and get the album and more here from Retro Promenade.

Daily Jam - I Wasted My Tears

After listening to Gloria Ann Taylor's cover of "Jolene" the other day, i guess i've got Dolly Parton on the brain, so here's a track from her debut album, "Hello, I'm Dolly."  Check out "I Wasted My Tears" below, our Daily Jam.

Jonas Munk & Nicklas Sørensen

Here's some sprawling, trippy music from psych explorers Jonas Munk and Nicklas Sørensen.  "Magnetic" sounds wandering into some magnificent cave whose tunnels just go on forever and ever, a dark and mystifying new subterranean world unfolding before you.  Check it out below and look for the "Always Already Here" LP from El Paraiso Records.

Daily Jam (Covers Week 2) - End of the World

Ending this second covers week with the melancholy, heartbreaking cover of Skeeter Davis's "End of the World" by defunct San Francisco band Girls.  The track has been recorded by dozens of artists, but i've been partial to this one since hearing it way back in 2010.  Listen below, our Daily Jam.
