Prostitute "All Hail"

Thanks to the Instagram algorithm I was fed Prostitute a few days ago, who will soon see their debut album released around the world on Mute records March 13. This is not a comfortable or easy listen, similar in that aspect to Death Grips, though Prostitute unleashes their rhythmic cacaphony through the medium of noise rock. Hailing from Dearborn, Michigan with Lebanese, Polish, Roma, and Maltese members, their music is an unrelenting assault on the ears. Prostitute may not be for everyone, but if you give it a chance you'll be rewarded with a unique musical experience. Enjoy! Attempted Martyr by Prostitute

Reminder: It's Bandcamp Friday Tomorrow!

What is Bandcamp Friday, you may ask? All you need to know is right  here . It's always good to support independent artists and independent music, especially when Bandcamp is foregoing their cut for 24 hours. Here's what I bought last month ! Buy something cool!

Avicii & Sebastien Drums "My Feelings For You"

This is the first track I ever heard from Avicii, albeit a collaboration with Sebastien Drums, and from that first listen I knew immediately that this was a banger! It's sad that someone who brought so much joy to people could not escape his own demons. He released so many great, booty-shaking tracks, but this one will always be my favorite. Sometimes you just want to dance. Avicii made that very easy to do. Enjoy!

Black Nail Cabaret "Totem and Taboo"

Last year in November I highlighted another song by this group off of this album because at the time it was hard for me to choose between "Autogenic" and "Totem and Taboo." Here, on the second anniversary of the release of Chrysanthemum ,   I wanted to highlight another fantasic track by this band that deserves far more attention. Hope you have a great week!  Enjoy!

INXS "Don't Change"

INXS, one of my favorite bands from the 80s/90s, and honestly, the first band I was obsessed with before I discovered Depeche Mode, has finally been nominated for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame . Their return to the news of course has me reflecting on their music and some of my favorite tracks of theirs. Sure, there are the big hits like "Need You Tonight," "New Sensation," "Suicide Blond," "Never Tear Us Apart," and many, many others, but that's not the one that I chose today. It's not a particularly important memory, but whenever I hear "Don't Change" I think back to my teen years, specifically a day during a sunny day at my friend Dan's house, where I believe he and another friend of ours, Marre, were swinging in a hammock and one/both of them asked me to play this song again. A whole group of my friends were there, just hanging out as teens do on a warm, pleasant day, and it's just a few seconds of a memory tha...

Elbow "Six Words"

Sometimes I post because I have discovered some new artist or song and I just have to share it as soon as possible. Other times I put on an album I haven't listened to in a while and as it plays in the background I am struck by the power and brilliance of a rediscovered tune. Today is definitely the latter, because wow, "Six Words" is peak Elbow and oh so sublime. Enjoy!
