Quickdraw: Squid, Shame, Weakened Friends, Chastity Belt, Spiritualized
Enjoy.
Squid – America (Bill Callahan Cover)
This song is no longer Bill Callahan’s, it’s Squid’s. Side note, I’m bummed that they’re not coming to Austin on their tour.
Shame – This Side Of The Sun
“It’s a pure banger, listen with a piña colada in your left hand.” Well, they weren’t lying, this one-off single from Shame is indeed a banger.
Weakened Friends – Tunnels
Here’s another wonderfully angry slice of alt-rock off of Weakend Friends’ upcoming album, Quitter (due out November 19). Even with the LP’s late release, I wouldn’t be surprised if it still made my year-end list.
Chastity Belt – Fear
Chastity Belt have announced a new 7″ single, FAKE / FEAR, and it’s due out December 3. Considering how great this B-side is, I can’t wait to hear the main track on the release.
Spiritualized – Always Together With You
This is such a pretty (and engrossing) track. Spiritualized will release a new album titled Everything Was Beautiful on February 25.
