Last Week’s Jams (9.22. 9.26)
It was a hectic week on my end, and RayRay up and left town (to travel to Detroit!), so I snuck in a bunch of gems I think you’ll really enjoy, all of them presented in a little playlist for your pleasure. I was stoked to see our friends in Pop Filter back with a new album and single, so be sure to listen to “Dirt Road Anthem.” Also in the unexpected great news realm, Tony Molina has a new LP on the way, and well, we’ve opted to include all 3 of the singles he released, as there’s never a bad time for Tony! We got UK stuff too, with new Pynch, Adults and Teenage Tom Petties, so that’s at least three continents represented in this 20 track collection for you all!
As you awaken today, maybe it’s hard to get out of bed and maybe its hard to rub the sleep from your eyes and maybe the outline of the world is bleak. So, settle into this Toriyama track, first thing. It’s a mellowed bit of slowcore magic, drifting carefully with this warped texture surrounding the craft as a whole; it allows for the vocal work to kind of reverberate and swallow you whole as it rings again and again. At a certain point, you’ll find yourself completely lost in the whole of the structure, circulating over and over, much in the same fashion as the tune itself.
