Preview the first track from the forthcoming Nikki Lane album, All or Nothin’ (May 6th). Hopefully the whole record is primarily this upbeat.. personally I think that’s where she shines the most.
Promised Land Sound – “Oppression (Live in the Morgue)”
Nashville Cream is doing some great things with their Live in the Morgue series – such as this exceptional performance from Promised Land Sound. Excited to see more of these, especially if they’re all this good.
Those Darlins – “Jolene (Dolly Parton)”
Join Eef Barzelay and Those Darlins as they discuss Dolly Parton, her legacy and then actually cover “Jolene.”  Love seeing Nashville artists on the AV Club!
Faux Ferocious – Striking Distance
These four brand new tracks from Faux Ferocious alternate between manic energy and the more laid back, building stoner jams. Long story short, it’s an enjoyably solid offering.

Got these special editions in the mail from Primitive Violence today. We’ll have a small amount of them at the East Room free show on Friday 5/2.
If you haven’t heard Forest of Tygers yet (and consider yourself a fan of some deep, dark, black metal), do NOT miss this amazing limited edition package for their record Bruises. IT COMES WITH A KNIFE. Get yours.
JOTA ESE – SUPER DANK III
Jota Ese released Super Dank III yesterday, April 20th. It’s a fitting release date for an undertaking presumably designed to space the fuck out to. It’s effective too. Watch the accompanying video and stare straight ahead, devoid of thought and life complications just for a little bit.

Kaleidoscope goodness from Tristen and friends.

Roy Ira – “Hunted by a Freak†(Mogwai)
You might not think a band self-identifying as “Folk Indie Country“ would be able to cover the post-rock goodness of Mogwai with much delight but Roy Ira proves to be the exception to the rule. Be sure to watch the rest of the set as well: ”Waltz for Aidan“ and ”Friend of the Nightâ€
As I said on the tweets, bummed I missed this great 8 Off 8th for Lance Conzett but happy to see the results appear on the ole YouTube.
