Dark and stampy.

Enough of this creeping nihilism!
Song of Everything - Sir Douglas Quintet + 2
this was the track from that LP that I actually liked, due to Kool G Rap, I guess. love the art by Futura, tho.
in the summer of '90, I wrote the lyrics to Bottle of Smoke onto my canoe paddle with a sharpie, from memory :^) amazing album.
moar Kool G Rap, plus Kane!
This room needs more jazz. Here’s Cory Henry, channeling his inner George Duke, with Snarky Puppy.
Agreed.
These guys just won the Mercury Prize:
The album which won:
Lauren Hill - Killing me softly, it’s so good!
Ah, you’re from Wales! Now is this sperm or blue-tip?
not intended to be an awesome song, just a dominant wales theme…
Ah, this stuff fueled most of my cross-country trips – hard to be sleepy when you are singing along at the top of your lungs (especially when there are great screams and hollers included…)
I tend to love discord (Carla Bozulich is my spirit animal)…
Drugstore’s cover of Wait’s Old Shoes – this always seems to affect me…
Carla’s cover of Jolene (Geraldine Fibbers) is also a fave – one of the few Jolene versions that actually seems to have the appropriate emotional content.
While I’m on a covers spree, I’ll toss this one out there…
Kinda’ falls into my pretty pop category (still a bit of discord)
Girl in a Coma’s cover of Bowie’s “As the world falls down”
Also, their song BB:
Cover your ears children:
While I’m on a covers spree
“Girl in a Coma, I know, I know, it’s serious.”
I had not heard of them before. Road to home has resonated with me the most so far.
Here I am, being an arse.
So there’s a dominant welsh theme now?
