    The Needle Drop

    Śmierć w miękkim futerku by Niechęć Polish alternative jazz outfit Niechęć has its new album streaming via the widget above, and it ‘s a pretty nice blend of improvisation, aggression, and a driving rock sensibility.

    Fatal Jamz- "Scorpion Chain"

    The Needle Drop

    A video from Los Angeles’ Fatal Jamz for the fast-rockin’ “Scorpion Chain,” which sounds like an interesting cross between the modern and messy punk energy of Jay Reatard with the over-the-top presentation of glam.

    The Needle Drop

    Singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and sonic explorer Nik Fackler has a new, self-title album out on Team Love Records, and “Saw A Blind Dad” is one of the tracks from it–and it’s an attention-grabbing track at that.

    DrumTalk- "Airbourne"

    The Needle Drop

    Soundway Records has always been a compilation-based label, but they’ve spent a good part of this year building up its catalog with releases that are legitimately new. They’ve even dabbled in some electronic music, and this new track from DrumTalk seems to be their latest endorsement of that.
