    Bad Bad Not Good's Debut EP

    The Needle Drop

    BADBADNOTGOOD by BADBADNOTGOOD Last month, I talked up some live videos from Canada’s Bad Bad Not Good, which is a young jazz trio of sorts. I’d call them “jazz fusion,” but that hardly addresses what they’re fusing together. Rather than welding jazz with some rock or funk,

    Toxic Holocaust- "Nowhere to Run"

    The Needle Drop

    I heard about Toxic Holocuast’s new LP, Conjure and Command, from one of my most trusted sources on all that is metal: JGC Sound. If it wasn’t an easy guess from the album cover and band name, this is a thrash metal album. And it’s nice to

    Herman Dune- "Tell Me Something I Don't Know"

    The Needle Drop

    The highlight track from the French duo Herman Dune’s recently-reviewed new album Strange Moosic has an interesting music video. In the clip, Mad Men‘s Jon Hamm stars alongside a furry blue creature as they take a drive into the city to see the folk band perform at a

    Herman Dune- Strange Moosic

    The Needle Drop

    France’s Herman Dune has come correct with another batch of light, breezy indie folk tunes that make for a perfect summer listen. Like always, the band’s frontman, David, brings these songs to live with his approachable voice and personality. To me, some songs really do pale in comparison

    Samiyam- Sam Baker's Album

    The Needle Drop

    On Sam Baker’s Album, Samiyam pulls together some pretty great grooves and sounds. My problem is not much of it moves or develops into anything interesting. This release is more like a sampler of various atmospheres this L.A. producer can create, and that’s fine. Maybe it’ll

    Part Time- "I Wanna Take You Out"

    The Needle Drop

    MP3 Coming out July 5th on Mexican Summer, Part Time’s debut album, What Would You Say?. Fronted by singer-songwriter David Speck, this release should lovingly seduce the ear drums of anybody who is into the nostalgic hip swaying of Ariel Pink or John Maus. Dig on a video for
