Last Week’s Jams (9.9 – 9.13)

Seemed like a strange week for some reason, but there were some definitely tunes that just broke my heart, in the best way possible. I continue to be impressed by Merce Lemon‘s new stuff, and “Crow” was just a beast. Porridge Radio, too, offered up a song that just wanted to shatter spirits, though if that’s the case, I won’t mind one bit. Alas, there was some pop in the week, like the new record from Young Scum and new single from Jim Nothing. Plus, old favorites the New Tigers are back, as is Germany’s Roller Derby. Indulge yourselves by pressing play below, but be sure to start with the powerhouse hit from The Wickies.

Night Court Drop Mistakes Become You

One thing that gets me going on a Monday is a huge hook and a whole lot of flare, just like the newest single from Vancouver’s Night Court. They don’t have a lot of time here, so they just right into the fray, banging out those angular punk riffs and snapping hits on the drum; they smash it down perfectly when they hit the chorus, emphatically entering a classic breakdown, albeit one with that has to work frantically so they can get right back at banging away at the hooks. Those vocals too, singing in unison, just bring out so much incredible energy, it’s going to be hard not to find yourself enjoying what’s in store. Shit Machine will be out on November 1st via Recess Records.
