Since I am undoubtedly a sad girl most of the time I most certainly appreciate a good sad girl jam and Australian Alt-Pop chanteuse Julia Jacklin’s hauntingly beautiful new single “Body” is definitely a sad girl jam. “Body” is out now via Polyvinyl records. Julia Jacklin

Twin Temple – Sex Magick (Video)
I’ve been following Los Angeles based Satanic Doo-Wop duo Twin Temple on Instagram for some time now. They kinda blew me away earlier this year when they dropped “Lucifer, My Love” as a special Valentines Day present via their Soundcloud page. But their new, very NSFW, video for the song[…]
Starcrawler – Chicken Woman (Video)
I loved the shit out of “I Love LA”, a slice of scummy retro Glam-Rock, when youthful Los Angeles based quartet Starcrawler dropped it late last year. They’re back, and still mining ’70s sleaze, both musically and visually, with a new single and video titled “Chicken Woman”. The song brings[…]
Unknown Mortal Orchestra – Hunnybee (Video)
I can admit it, a lot of the shit I post here tends to be “feel bad music” in one way or another. But that doesn’t mean I don’t like to get down with a feel good jam now and then. The Summer season just happens to be the perfect[…]
Viva Melinkolya – 1:00AM (Video)
Is it possible for something to be chilly and sultry at the same time? Because that’s exactly how “1:00AM”, the new single and video from Kentucky bred Shoegaze revivalist Vyva Melinkolya, sounds to me. “1:00AM” is taken from the self-titled full length album she released earlier this year. Vyva Melinkolya
Monday Magick: Dent May – Take Me to Heaven (Video)
I know. I know. I never update the fucking blog and it’s been ages since I did a Monday Magick post! I kinda doubt anybody is even reading any more so my excuses are probably going to fall on deaf ears, but my mental health has been erratic at best[…]
SURFBORT – LES BE IN LOVE (Video)
Just in time to be severely late for Valentines Day Brooklyn based Punk quartet Surfbort drops a video dedicated to spreading love, breaking people’s realities open, and taking over corporate America so they can make art, have fun, friendship, and music forever for their brief but infectious new single “Les[…]
of Montreal – Plateau Phase/No Careerism No Corruption (Video)
I love all of of Montreal’s music. But there’s always at least one song, if not a handful of them, from every one of their albums that really speaks to me. “Plateau Phase/No Careerism No Corruption” is definitely one of those songs. Yeah, it’s ear-catching with its blend of booming[…]
of Montreal – Paranoiac Intervals/Body Dysmorphia (Video)
Kevin Barnes continues to evolve his drag looks in the video for of Montreal’s newest two-in-one jam “Paranoiac Intervals/Body Dysmorphia”. “Paranoiac Intervals/Body Dysmorphia” is the first single from the Athens, Georgia-based Indie-Pop band’s fifteenth studio album ‘White is Relic/Irrealis Mood’ which is out March 9th on Polyvinyl Records. of Montreal
Son Lux – Slowly (Video)
I have no idea what the fuck is going on in the beautiful but creepy video clip for Baroque bedroom Pop act Son Lux’s new single “Slowly”. But the music is haunting in a way that is very typical of Son Lux’s output over the years. “Slowly” is the first[…]
Chicano Batman – Freedom is Free (Video)
I post a lot of horror-inspired videos but the clip for Chicano Batman’s “Freedom is Free” is horrific in a whole different way. In seeming opposition to the upbeat, almost deceptively care-free, vibe of the song, the video depicts the LA-based foursome undergoing the torture of “enhanced interrogation methods” as[…]
MGMT – When You Die (Video)
Abandoning the uncharacteristically Gothy New Wave sheen of their last record, “Little Dark Age”, MGMT go for a decidedly more subdued classic Indie-Pop sound while keeping the glum content intact on their snotty new single “When You Die”. I’m not that nice I’m mean and I’m evil Don’t call me[…]
