Stax of wax for the summer
I always love to listen to hip-hop and punk rock during the summer. But there is such great stuff to pull from lately that does not fit into either of these categories so here are some songs that will be on heavy rotation on my hi-fi this summer.
1. Vivian Girls “Going Insane“
What a great way to start the summer off. Dreamy songs, and even dreamer voices created by three hip, cool chicks Cassie, Katy, and Frankie. A song I will let speak for it self.
2. Pylon “Functionality“
Year nineteen hundred and eighty, was a good one for the band Pylon pretty much the primo rock & roll sound between no wave and punk and electro. Thundering baselines, and short loud vocals.
3. TL & Esoteric “3 Minute Classic”
This song would make 2live crew blush. A great little ditty but not for the overly sensitive ears, this song is such a groover I can’t help but to listen to it over and over.
4. Carbonas “Phonebooth”
It is primitive, it is brutal, and it is immediate. Perfect.
5. Black Tambourine “For ExLovers Only”
The first strum of this guitar is struck and hangs there for a second before it coolly walks on. A solid drumbeat is topped by distant soft vocals, And then the vocals - dramatic , defeated, distant yet so fucking cool.
6. Times New Viking “ We Got Rocket”
Does this band matter? You bet your sweet ass this band matters! Damn if this song isn't infectious. This song starts off with a cool funky beat. Then vocals come in and - zip zip the song gets even better! They are punk, garage, and talent show sitcom all mixed into one.
7. Lamps “Now That I’m Dead”
Throw a heap o' reverb and raspy vocals on top of having a bit of anger and angularity into the playing. The result? A fucking great song!
8. The Breeders “Saints”
I always have a soft spot in my heart for the Breeders. I am proud to present to you a great summer shaker.
