MP3 Solo artists Thao–of Get Down Stay Down fame–and Mirah released a nice little record on Kill Rock Stars this week. It’s filled with co-written songs built on strummed guitars and breezy vocals. The two of ’em actually brought on tUnE-yArDs to co-produce some of the material
MP3 This is some heavy doom right here, and the only thing better than heavy doom is free heavy doom. (Edit: Yeah, it could be “Sludge,” too.) Lento hails from Italy, and tends to keep their tracks completely free of vocals; allowing their deep, resonant guitar tone to rattle skulls
