Beck “Go It Alone”

Things have gotten a bit crazy today so it’ll be a short one. Here’s “Go it Alone” by the multi-instrumentalist, weirdo, hip hop/folk blending mastermind...Beck. This song comes from, in my opinion, one of his most underrated albums, “Guero”.

The Murlocs "Loopholes"

Melbourne, Australia is absolutely killing it in modern psyche-rock music these days. You might have heard of bands like Tame Impala , King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard , and Courtney Barnett . Maybe it's the hot temperatures and the sun...who knows. But whatever it is I hope it stays that way and killer music continues to be made. The Murlocs, as you might have guessed, hail from Melbourne. Their Bandcamp page describes them as " Five skinny kids with roots firmly placed in their own blown-out, distorted brand of soulful RnB." They're trippy, they're funky, and they're pretty psychedelic. Check out "Loopholes".

Power Trip "Executioner's Tax (Swing of the Axe)"

Warning: very heavy! I've heard Power Trip's name over and over throughout 2017. Their sophomore album "Nightmare Logic" has be accumulating quite the response. I finally gave it a shot this morning ...I'm now listening to it on vinyl. I had to buy it. After one full listen of this thing I see why it's getting all the praise. This thing is gnarly! Power Trip is a thrash metal band from Dallas, TX, on a mission to obliterate your ears. "Nightmare Logic" is only their second full length album over an almost 10 year span. I have yet to listen to their debut, "Manifest Decimation" but I definitely plan on it once I wear this thing out. You know the one or two songs that really stick out to you upon first listen of a new album. Well on "Nightmare Logic" it was and still is the second song "Executioner's Tax (Swing of the Axe)". It's got this long chug after the power intro that I still can't get enough of....

Leisure Birds “Burn the Beach”

Got another beachy vibe for ya. As I’ve stated before I’m a huge fan of surf rock jammers. This is up there with some of my favorite. It’s the only song I have ever heard from the band and I don’t know much about them. I found this song on a sampler/compilation mixtape back in the mid 2000’s and it has remained on my playlists ever since. It’s a quick and fast dancy sort of song that makes you feel like running through sand dunes and basking in the sun. Pretty fun groove. I always told myself I would use it as a skate video song if I ever had a part. Hopefully someday that could happen. We’ll see! Unfortunately I was unable to find the song on YouTube. But here is the Spotify link...it's also available on Apple Music. https://open.spotify.com/track/3hBvyfNLlczMIj8DC5uaBc
