TRACKLIST:
1. Already Dreaming 2. Wanting on Air 3. Listen to Music and Cry 4. My Zhe Zhe 5. Take the Form 6. When 02:32 7. Hack it Up 8. Lacan in the Family 9. Having a Moment 10. From the Font of You 11. To Nothing’s Reward 12. Now We Cringe at the Thought 13. Dismissal Mosaics
Kevin Barnes shared this about the song: “‘When’ is more a song about yearning, sadness, confusion, frustration…than it is a song about having sex. Clearly all of the things listed in the verses are the things I actually desire. I’m hiding behind a shield of sexual bravado and pretending as if my only needs are physical. It’s very transparent that I’m longing for much more than just libidinal fulfillment, but those other things are being withheld. It’s much easier to say ‘When can I fuck you again?’ than it is to say ‘When will you be loving, affectionate, and emotionally generous and make me feel whole again?’
Jon Spencer has shared the first single, “Knock ‘Em Out”, off his upcoming album “Songs Of Personal Loss and Protest” out June 12th via Stove Records.
TRACKLIST: 1. Fanfare (Another Point of View) 2. Vermin Attack! 3. Hangover 4. Knock ‘Em Out 5. Give It Up 4 the Devil 6. Mr. Lion 7. Orange Slice Blues 8. Slip Away 9. Step On the Gas 10. I’m Taking Off 11. Wet & Wild 12. No More
Jon Spencer shared this about the album: “I’m in a time of spiritual reckoning. These past few years there has been a lot of emotional conflict and personal loss—the passing of time takes its toll. Losing friends, losing family, and all of this set against a world gone topsy-turvy where it feels like we are losing basic freedoms… I’m trying to balance a lot of things, but the answer is always rock’n’roll. Rock’n’roll is America’s true gift to the world—the sound of revolution! It came out of the sky, a screaming, chrome-plated flying saucer, like an outer space monster, landed here on Earth so the freaks could have their say. It is the hip-shaking sound of rebellion. The blues is my bible, rock’n’roll is our battle cry!”
1000 Rabbits have shared their second single, “Rubik’s Cube”, available now via Young.
The video for the song was directed by Cuan Roche.
1000 Rabbits shared this about the song: “Thank you for dancing to ‘Virgin Soil.’ We hope you dance to this too. “Rubik’s Cube” has a similar danciness, but energetically it feels like an inversion, with darker verses and bright releases in the chorus.”
American Football have shared the second single, “No Feeling”, off their upcoming album “LP4” out May 1st via Polyvinyl.
The video was directed by Cady Buche & Travis Barron of Unlimited Time Only. They shared this about it: “Our goal with music videos is to tell a story that captures what we think and feel while listening to the song. When we listened to “No Feeling” for the first time, we thought a lot about mysterious places like outer space and the bottom of the ocean, they’re beautiful and they also kind of freak you out. The music also brought to mind the idea of going down with the ship or a sense of crushing inevitability. Then we thought, what if you flipped that? What if you opened on a sunken ship and that was the beginning? What if this sunken ship were a thriving habitat for ghosts who live there? What if something came along that jeopardized their beautiful afterlife?”
Mike Kinsella shared this about the song: “Brendan Yates came into the studio to sing along to a ‘gang vocal’ call-and-response part I’d written for the chorus of ‘No Feeling,’” Kinsella says. “I had imagined his voice would be one of many voices scream-singing it, and was excited for it to be a sort of Easter Egg on the album. But after tracking the original parts, he asked if he could try a higher harmony that he was hearing. As soon as he started singing it, all of our jaws dropped, and we all were looking at each other like ‘Oh shit! THAT’S the dude from Turnstile!’ His voice is so singular, and once he sang the part in *his* range, it was clear that the part now belonged to him and him alone…”
