“Make It Work” – Swiss Banks
\nHoly Smiths tribute! Or is it an Interpol tribute? The vocals are straight out of the Morrissey school. But musically, this song is way closer to Interpol than The Smiths. Interesting combination. I think it works. <\/p>\n
“Different Now” – Courtney Barnett covering Chastity Belt
\nIt’s been awhile since I’ve enjoyed one of Barnett’s new songs. It took a cover to get me back on board. It still has that Barnett minimalism in the music, but I appreciate it taking her a different direction lyrically. <\/p>\n
\u201cthe slab\u201d – Slowdive
\nIt is still a little crazy these Shoegaze legends went away for over 20 years, then came back making music as good as anything from their early days. After another six-year hiatus, they are returning with LP #5.<\/p>\n
“Melancholy Molly” – Seablite
\nThere’s definitely some ’90s Shoegaze in this San Francisco band’s sound, although it leans way more towards Lush than Slowdive.<\/p>\n
“20 Years and a Nickel” – Hiss Golden Messenger
\nMC Taylor’s ode to music and how, after 25 years in the business, perfection remains elusive.<\/p>\n
“Dig Your Hips” – THE BOBBY LEES
\nInsert GIF of Beavis and Butthead banging their heads and yelling “YES! YES!”<\/p>\n
“august” – Taylor Swift
\nMan summer goes by fast.<\/p>\n
