New Daniel Rossen - Silent Song


While Grizzy Bear may be prepping for a new album later this year, members of the band have been doing a lot in the mean time. Ed Droste was recently married, Chris Taylor released his first studio album as CANT last fall, and now Daniel Rossen is set to release his own solo studio effort. We heard Rossen's first song "Saint Nothing,"  off the upcoming Silent Hour/Golden Mile EP a few weeks back, but "Silent Song" is more assuredly worth your time. Listen below.

Wednesday Bears: Trailer Trash Tracy's video for "Engelhardt's Arizona"

There shouldn't be much of a reason why I ask you to watch the new Trailer Trash Tracys' video for "Engelhardt's Arizona." The 'Here-there-everywhere' imagery play, spliced with the song's languid, off-center pace combine for a deceivingly memorable output. You watch.

New Pretty Lights - We Must Go On

Pretty Lights debuted his newest video for "We Must Go On" earlier today, another particularly well-done trip hop cut set with street shots. If you're trying to recognize where the video is, don't bother. The shots come from all across North America and Europe. Watch below.

New Shabazz Palaces video - Are You ... Can You ... Were You? (Felt)

Shabazz Palaces debuted their new video for (and this is the title) "Are You ... Can You ... Were You?(Felt)" earlier today, a spectacularly well-shot and well-paced video directed by Maikoiyo Alley-Barnes. The video features an incredibly attractive woman dealing with somewhat normal problems, placated by slip-ins of Shabazz-centric imagery. Watch below.

And it goes without saying that Black Up, Shabazz Palaces' latest album, is available now and must-listen.

Monday Bears: New Jack White - Love Interrupted

It's been a long time coming. Ever since the effective end of the White Stripes, it's all been a matter of the waiting game until Jack White would truly release some real solo material. And while I can't imagine this will hault the eventual work of The Dead Weather and The Raconteurs, it's better than five-minute shots on Storage Wars.

Listen to White's first single "Love Interrupted" below, and grab his first solo album Blunderbuss this April.

Friday Bears: BADBADNOTGOOD and Tyler, The Creator

Forgive me for not knowing too much (okay, anything) about BADBADNOTGOOD. There's not a ton of information out there, but from what I can tell from the group's Youtube channel, is that they're fairly high-caliber hip-hop instrumentalists. Most of the videos are worth a viewing, but the video for "Orange Juice" below featuring Tyler, The Creator is pretty fucking spectacular. Watch below.

New Tennis - My Better Self


Tennis' new song "My Better Self" has pretty much made its way around the internet already today, but in case you haven't gotten a chance to listen yourself, it's available to stream below.

Thursday Bears: Album Stream: Of Montreal - Paralytic Stalks


Of Montreal, which took me until now to find out they're actually from Athens, Georgia, are consistently chaotic, offbeat, flamboyant, and flat-out interesting, both live and in studio. That being said, Paralytic Stalks should be worth your time.

You can stream the entire album over at Pretty Much Amazing, and listen to the album's first single "Wintered Debts" below.
