Music ... brings the people ... together ...

[mnemosyne]

I am obsessed - obsessed - with the new Sleater-Kinney album. It is so, so good. So good.






We speak in circles
We dance in code
Untamed and hungry
On fire and in cold
Exhume our idols and bury our friends
We're wild and weary but we won't give in

[mnemosyne]

Man.

Love them.

So let's just drown the room with this love
We can drain our love of power, power
Steal from the makers who have made us
Leaving nothing to devour, devour

What are them raw material
Make me plastic, make me fuel
I can be, I can be, I can be any, oh

No one here is taking notice
No outline will ever hold us
It's not a NEW WAVE
It's just you and me
Eyes are the only witness
That will prove we ever lived this
Invent our own kind of obscurity

[Howl]

I'm not sure if you guys are familiar with This is my Jam, but it's a good way to share music (and also get exposed to some cool new stuff.) It's also great for lazy people like me, because you can set it to post songs to other social media sites (if you want to.)

I've been on there for a while, and it would be awesome to be able to share music with you guys in a more organic way, so if anyone else uses the site or is thinking of using it - let me know. I could totally use new people to follow.

Sorry Howl, I am terrible at all types of social media.


That said:

Oh my fuck:





Doomtree - Generator

Is that moonshine in a champagne flute?
Old English in a new tattoo?
What we do to be last the man standing
Break an ankle to stick the landing
And I’ll be singing in the silo, let that echo clear my head
Learn to tolerate the iocane, got real good at playing dead
Call to arms young statuettes
Coquetting’s clever yet, bet
Venus de Milo’s better with her bayonet

I am not huge on hiphop, but dude.





Like I won’t let it slip until I get light
I’m burning all these old bodies, holding no vigils
See which pieces send smoke signals
No combing the ash, let the breeze sort it out
Boarded-out, that house I tore it down

Ob. Sessed.

I can very rarely claim to love every single song on an album, but all of the tracks on the new Other Lives LP (Rituals) are gorgeous and amazing. It's totally worth a listen.

This one made me think of Mage:





And here's one for Werewolf:





Sadly there aren't any with obvious Vampire titles, but this one seemed appropriate anyway:

Kate Tempest - The Beigeness

Them things you don't show, I can see
Them things you don't say, speak to me
Them things you hide ain't hiding
No firm ground but we ain't sliding

Them things that haunt you, let them be
That thing you weep for, leave it

All life is forwards, you will see
It needs you to need it

Zola Jesus - Night

I’m on my bed
My bed of stones
But in the end of the night we’ll rest our bones
So don’t you worry
Just rest your head
Cause in the end of the night we’ll be together again

Parra for Cuva ft. Anna Naklab - Wicked Games

World was on fire,
No one could save me but you

The Asteroids Galaxy Tour - Navigator

I want to navigate through your soul,
through apocalyptic black holes
