Who's up for lunch?
MP3: Mika Miko - Turkey SandwichMP3: Mika Miko - Beat the RushIt's been a few months since Mika Miko's "We Be XUXA" was released, and luckily it still seems to be enjoyable. I played out the record when I first got it and now it's finding new life again. Sounds like a keeper. Plus, anyone who points out that "I want turkey sandwich" is the catchiest chorus ever to me should be appreciated. Than...

FUCK YEAH: Red Fang
-
Artist:
MP3: Red Fang - Prehistoric DogIt occurred to me that even though Red Fang has not released any new songs in a hot second, their self titled nationally available record and the genius "Prehistoric Dog" is never old news. You know the score: Red Fang is the best band from the Earth and will one day lead us to glorious doom. Happy birthday.

MP3: Black Moth Super Rainbow - Gold SplatterA band like Black Moth Super Rainbow could easily make the same songs and records over and over again and still be great, but luckily they released "Eating Us", a complete progression to the trademark BMSR sound.The song that I can't get out of my head or stop listening to is "Gold Splatter": it stops time and fills the space with beautiful music. So...

David, you're a fucking gem.
MP3: The Radio Dept. - DavidSeeing as this blog has made so many return trips from the dead, I try to make sure we come back strong and fierce. I mean, in it's downtime, you'd hope I would have been climbing mountains or walking kittens. Not so much...But in the Radio Dept.'s downtime, they've made a 3rd record and released an ep/single/masterpiece in "David". Here is the title track. You'll lo...

MP3: DOOM - Microwave MayoDOOM may not be advertising his metal fingers anymore, but inside the liner notes in the production credits, they were all over this beast. It's been far too long since we got any new DOOM, but we've got it now and are better for it. He sounds fucking hungry, and today we get to eat with him, sampling a little Microwave Mayo... whatever the fuck that is. Welcome back f...

Skulls and clouds with Mark Sultan.

Artist:
MP3: Mark Sultan - Hold OnThis is a no brainer: I'm a huge King Khan & BBQ Show fan and Mark Sultan has beyond proven himself as a brilliant songwriter and his newest release, the "Hold On" 7 inch, projects him further towards complete genius.I've posted the A side here today and it is not to be missed. The B side, a cover of Joe Meek's "I Hear A New World" makes for a flawless piece of wax, ad...

Bill Callahan and the enveloping gloom.
MP3: Bill Callahan - Faith/VoidNOTE: Today's contribution comes from the Matt Giordano, who sent in this post in perfect conjunction with my recent Smog/BC kick. Extremely enjoyable? Fuck yeah!It's been a while since I've gotten an album that I am initially floored by. Perhaps it's the gloom that envelops New York for nine months of the year, but this album fits perfectly with it all. Perhaps, ...

MP3: Loney Dear - Airport SurroundingsMP3: Loney Dear - I Got LostFrequent contributor Matt Giordano pointed out a little while back that it was insane how this blog hasn't posted anything about Loney Dear's newest record "Dear John", which came out this past January. It's true: it's insane. I think that he's our most posted artist (or close to) and we've gushed over this music so many times. W...

MP3: Montt Mardié - Bang, Bang (Echo In Warsaw)NOTE: Today's contribution comes from the Matt Giordano, who might like fine carpeting. Do you? Fuck yeah!After an excessively unneeded "Best of" compilation (the three new songs are killer and serve as a segue to this) which took from two albums, Montt Mardié's proper label delivers us his third album. Out on the 9th April via Hybris, Skaizerkite .

The Best Song Ever: Give Him A Great Big Kiss
-
Artist:
MP3: The Shangri-Las - Give Him A Great Big KissGolly, I wish I was on top of great music in my high school years, because "Give Him A Great Big Kiss" by the Shangri-Las has all of the instructions of landing a bad ass woman: shades, be tall and be good bad, not evil. Then you can dance close all night long and make her wanna shout "L U V!".If you dig this (and why wouldn't you), seek out anyth...

I posted on their 7 inch last year and loved it a ton, and now they're back with "Dim Light", 8 songs that rip through and rule just as much as the 7 inch if not a little more. Real relaxed and gnar, just how everybody loves it.Don't miss this one from PPM, cd comes with the 7 inch songs fo...

Nite Jewel, you burned my eye.
MP3: Nite Jewel - What Did He SayMan, how I wish Nite Jewel's "Good Morning" lp was better than it is. Still, it's pretty okay and there's a couple of rippers like "What Did He Say" (mp3 above) and "Artificial Intellegence" (radical video below). Maybe I'll plant it and hope it grows...

MP3: Children - Power SpiritWhat the fuck: We haven't done a 'FUCK YEAH' post since October. That is weak, though it isn't my fault as music has been particularly vagina-like for a good bunch of months now. In fact, 2009 hasn't really delivered anything worth jamming hard at all... until now.Children are the most exciting new band ever. I wanked off about their "Death Tribe" one track lp back i...

MP3: Bonnie 'Prince' Billy - I Don't Belong to AnyoneHoly shit, here it is: mp3 post #250:We love Will Oldham and his Bonnie 'Prince' Billy records, so much so that I bought his newest record "Beware" on all 3 formats. Jeeeeez. Completely worth it though, and what an album it is. It certainly is his most accessible which would explain the massive press push Drag City is doing behind it, but acc...
