I pulled back from frequently posting here as it grew increasingly difficult to come up with something daily to share that was truly blowing me away, especially new releases. That changed upon receiving Siskiyou's Keep Away The Dead in the mail last week. Completely new to me upon pressing play, I was even more excited to learn that Colin Stetson lends his talents to the third track, " Twigs & Stones. " You can download that track below. Siskiyou is comprised of Colin Huebert and Erik [...]

Roadside Graves release their new album, We Can Take Care of Ourselves today on Autumn Tone . They've been historically one of our favorite bands - both live and on record. Their new one is a continuation of what I've always loved about the band and cannot recommend it enough. This post, authored by Roadside Graves front man John Gleason, began as a story told over breakfast in Milwaukee last April. Since then I've listened to the soundtrack and watched the movie. His recommendation, as always, is on target. [...]

"For my whole life I've dealt with extreme anxiety." says Powers. "Not anxiety about passing a test or somewhat normal things, but weird.. bizarre things. Things that only I know. I sometimes feel like I'm literally being eaten up inside. So I started writing these songs. Not just songs about my anxiety, but about my past and my present. Songs about memories, and all those feelings that those bring. I know that if I can be honest about what is inside my mind, there will be others that will be able to relate to it." Youth [...]
