Song : Lauryn Hill : “Neurotic Society (Compulsory Mix)”

May 7, 12:45am My Old Kentucky Blog
Song : Lauryn Hill : “Neurotic Society (Compulsory Mix)” Lauryn Hill is back with a fury in her new song that dropped over the weekend. Apparently all it took was legal troubles regarding unpaid taxes to light a fire underneath her and bring her back to proper form. "Neurotic Society (Compulsory Mix)" is a commentary on the the injustices of our time and the money-driven world we live. We can only hope this is a taste of what is yet to come. Listen below.

Song : Twin Tigers : “Death Wish” With their sophomore LP Death Wish which just dropped April 9 th 2013, Twin Tigers , a stark, edgy band hailing from Athens, GA are pushing their brooding, angsty sound into even darker, sonic territory.

Song : Dirty Fences : “White Lies”

May 6, 11:57pm My Old Kentucky Blog
Song : Dirty Fences : “White Lies” From Brooklyn via Boston comes Dirty Fences and their latest track "White Lies" off their recently released full-length Too High To Kross . I can’t help wondering if the spelling of the album title bears any homage to Red Kross, a band from whom Dirty Fences draws influence, along with CBGB’s-era Stooges and Johnny Thunders. And it might be just me, but I detect more than a smidgen of KISS tossed in for good measure. Given that, Dirty Fences still delivers their very own take [...]
