If there were a prediction market for albums that will make a lot of critics’ Best of the Year lists, one would risk very little betting on Baroness’ upcoming album to dominate a lot of the lists.

This track, “Takes My Bones Away”, if it’s any kind of an indicator for the rest of the album, would reduce the risk in that bet even further. I got a millie on it.

Light Asylum, for whom PSB has assembled a Freedom Fighter brigade, is back with a new video for Heart of Dust.

At 26 seconds in, right when the synth line kicks in and there is a rather gorgeous shot of lead singer Shannon Funchess whipping her muddy hair back and forth, I started to laugh and say “oh shit” out loud because I thought it was going to devolve into some scary ass Dario Argento nightmare scenario.

Instead it’s just a lot of weird, inconsistently shot scenes that my lack of education in the arts cannot parse. The video falls off for me after the 30 second mark, but it’s a good track, easily the 5th best on the album.

Feels good to hear something new from Shit Robot. Both tracks on the new EP are great, continuously building bangars. So much great new music out the last few weeks, its been a major struggle to keep up. And I keep listening to Metronomy and The Rapture remixes! Good times everyone. Listen to and dig this Robotic Shizar.

Apologies to B4B for posting on top of a stellar Teengirl Fantasy track, but I just got a bulk email blast from Yeasayer giving loyal fans an exclusive jump on their new track. As a young upstart music blog we must take these opportunities to scoop the P4Ks and Stereogums of the world and post shizz quick, irregardless (word or not? discuss…) of said music’s inherent qualities or lack therof. In this case, Henrietta is at least interesting. I was excited for the first minute, then kinda pissed at the chorus/hook, then increasingly intrigued by the latter half. Decide for yourself brothers.  

People remain awesome by shooting truly epic things like the below, then cutting it to M83:

Lastly - a) band aids and b) WTF is going on with the eyes?
