It\u2019s been a rough music week. As you can imagine, I have been listening to a lot of Frightened Rabbit\u2019s music. Their songs always had a difficult quality to them. Those elements have been amplified since Scott Hutchison\u2019s death.<\/p>\n
But it is time to move on, so here are some new tunes for you. No video this week, as I\u2019m waiting on our fourth visit from AT&T this week and videos aren\u2019t loading right now. (Update: dude was here for three hours and was unable to completely fix the situation. Apparently we have a rogue wire that is hidden behind some ductwork that may need to be fished out at some point. But this involves holes in walls so we\u2019re going to put that off for now.)<\/p>\n

\u201cI Am a War Machine\u201d – SONTALK. \/\u00a0\u201cLake Erie\u201d – Wild Pink. These two tracks have both been highlighted by music writers as songs for people who are into The War on Drugs. They each hit different parts of TWOD\u2019s sound, and do so rather nicely. The SONTALK track probably hews a little closer to classic TWOD. The Wild Pink track veers more towards Americana, although that late solo is pure Adam Granduciel. They\u2019re both nice songs.<\/p>\n
\u201cHowlin\u2019 Heart\u201d – Richard Edwards. Indy\u2019s Edwards had a rough few years. He became very ill. His marriage ended. In this song you can hear both heartache and hope.<\/p>\n
\u201cSpecial\u201d – Angel Olsen. I didn\u2019t devote too much attention to Olsen\u2019s Phases<\/em> album, which came out last year and featured leftover tracks from other projects. This one is quite good, though. I love how it smolders and builds and eventually roars to the finish.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It\u2019s been a rough music week.
