Tom Waits has shared the b-side, “The Fly”, to the 12″ collaboration with Massive Attack.
Tom Waits shared this about the song: “Today, as in all of mankind’s yesterdays, guarantees this type of song will never go out of style. Man’s folly of fiascos is a feast for the flies. Hence, the B side of Massive Attack’s upcoming 12 inch ‘The Fly’ features my appreciation for the winged nuisance.”
CD Ghost have shared the 4th single, “Identity”, off their just released album “When The Rain Stops” out via Born Losers Records.
Tracklisty: 1. Trinity 2. When The Rain Stops 3. Lost and Found 4. No Words 5. Fallen Angels 6. Identity 7. Feign 8. Sans Soleil 9. Thorns 10. Castles
The band shared this about the song: “‘Identity’ is about struggling with self-perception, and how ego and insecurity distort the images we hold of ourselves. Our inner monologues are unreliable narrators that use selective memory to constantly reshape the past. The urgency of the synths and ringing guitars scores these emotions, fighting the tendency to overthink and instead accepting that freedom may lie in letting go of one’s ego.”
Slayyyter has released a new song, “brand new chanel$”, just after her performance at Lollapalooza.
This is the first new song since the release of her album “WOR$T GIRL IN AMERICA” back in March. Along this song during her set she also performed 3 new songs “NEKROMANTIK,” “I THINK HE’S GOT A GIRL” AND “CRANK 2.” which might hint at a new album or maybe an expanded release of her last one.
Slayyyter is currently on tour supporting the album with some shows already sold out.
Blonde Redhead have shared a new single, “Blood Spilled”, out now via section1.
Kazu Makino shared this about the song: “The last few years have been for the world and me a relentless season of loss. Devastated through this era I learned that death means the end of the body but not the soul. I am still connected to those who are no longer part of this world and the spirits that were never part of this world. I speak to them and I hear them. They show me signs to let me know we are much more than our bodies and most of all, I feel their love. There are people who are so afraid of dying and decay that they go against their own interest and the law of nature. While I know death is not the end, I’ve also come in full circle to recognize the power and magic of the body that houses the soul. This song embraces our incredible edge over those who no longer have bodies. While we are here on this earth, this is our time, our pain and our joy. We own them. I sing and scream just to hear myself do so until my soul abandons and exits the physical plane. This song is about the free will of our soul and body down to each and every cell.”

JD Pinkus had this to share: “It’s been way too long since I got to write a heavy album from scratch with such high caliber players with such complimentary styles… and we’re just cat scratching the surface of what we got goin’ on!”

The lead single features Peter Buck and Mike Mills (R.E.M.). Stef Chura shared this about the single: “I met someone who was traveling through New Orleans. We had an instant rapport and an easy chemistry, and it reminded me what excitement could feel like. I wrote ‘Danny’ as an ode to the fantasy of meeting someone who could sweep me off my feet when I felt like I needed rescuing. He invited me to a party, but I stayed home and watched the clock tick instead. Afterwards I couldn’t stop imagining the version of myself who had gone, who had seized the moment.”
