Just found this new album from Violens, TRUE. Can’t. Stop. Listening. Since this NYC psych-pop, indie rock outfit with shoegaze tendencies got their name from combining “violins” and “violence” together, you would expect them to produce a noise similar to orchestral movements meeting clashing sounds, and in the non-literal sense, they do. See for yourself what the fuss is about. Recommended highly for chilled out nights.

Let’s not forget about the time that Adam Yauch pulled the original “Kanye” at the VMAs (start watching around 2:30).
RIP the man who “had all the ideas for Star Wars.”

Can’t wait for this release. I heart MetricMetric have revealed the official artwork and tracklisting of their forthcoming new album Synthetica. The cover, depicting an inverted window and upside-down world, was created by Toronto-based photographer and designer Justin Broadbent.

The hype is deserved. Alabama Shakes are just different enough to stand out, just similar enough to draw worthy comparisons to past R&B/Soul greats. Worth a listen.

Oh Merrill, you’ve done it again. Wonderfulness in the form of a music video. Please to enjoy.
