new protomartyr kicks ass, as always
for those who are into 90s indie rock-like stuff, the new bar italia album is outstanding

Picked up my blue wax copy on Sunday. Big contender for AOTY.

Protomartyr was pretty good.
Nothing yet comes close to Young Fathers.
I think this is one of the better foo albums in recent memory
I can't get into proto.. musically they're good I just don't like his vocals

Driving along in the car yesterday and hear a song by Newcastle (that's Aus, not UK) band Dust, whom I'd never heard of before. The song caught my ear so to speak. They have released their (I believe) debut EP titled et cetera, etc and its an interesting listen. I'm always a sucker for an unusual voice, and spoken word is fine by me. The whole album isn't spoken word btw, just this song here. Some post punk, some interesting soundbites, well produced.
Here's "Joy (Guilt)":

what do you think?
if you've a hankering for more, I'd say start with Under Color of Official Right, then the follow-up, The Agent Intellect.
if you don't like what you heard, delete this post.

For Tomorrow
Elimination Dances
Let's Tip the Creator
Graft Vs. Host
We Know the Rats
I know they've pretty much kept the same formula, but I don't care. This one reminds me of Under Color, which is probably my favorite album of theirs.
