blog 2014/08/28 - edging on the details

Almost the peak:  http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20140828.zip


A Shoreline Dream - The Heart Never Recovered:  Float on the janglepop express on the new album The Silent Sunrise.

A Sunny Day in Glasgow - Crushin':  This new one from Sea When Absent is all subtle ecstatic waves.

Beth Orton - Bamboo (River Come Down):  Another track from that quirky Son of Rogues Gallery: Pirate Ballads, Sea Songs & Chanteys comp.

Datassette vs Kate Bush - Running Up That Hill:  Was passed this from a friend, and I really think we all needed this in our lives.

Death Cab For Cutie - Amputations
Death Cab For Cutie - Bend To Squares
Death Cab For Cutie - Your Bruise:  So yeah I am continuing with my dive in to the Death Cab catalogue, so here are some highlights from Something About Airplanes.

Dinosaur Jr. - Now The Fall
Dinosaur Jr. - Ricochet:  Dinosaur Jr are such an incredible institution that got even better as they got older.  These 2 great tracks come from a 7" single, and are both winners.

Merdarahta - Dusk:  Saw this band live and holy shit they were amazing.  A perfect blend of dark metal and drone.  This recording here doesn't quite capture it all, but I can't recommend them enough.

Quasimoto - Greenery (instrumental)
Quasimoto - Life Is... (instrumental)
Quasimoto - Players of the Game (instrumental):  The thing with Quas is that…. Yeah OK you know what the thing is.  That's why Further Instrumentals is such a great ride sometimes.

Speedy Ortiz - Bigger Party:  So who'd have thought the Adult Swim singles program could be so good?

Tim Hecker - Amps, Drugs, Mellotron:  Oh yes, it's that good.  Shocked face.

Warpaint - Billie Holiday:  A lovely little cover tribute.

White Lung - Down It Goes
White Lung - Drown With The Monster
White Lung - Lucky One:  Deep Fantasy is such a powerhouse of an album.  It's like when you first discovered grunge in 1992 and were like fuck yes, let's do this hard.  HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
