    Destroyer- "Savage Night At the Opera"

    The Needle Drop

    New video from Destroyer featuring the song “Savage Night At the Opera.” The song is set to, uh, a first-person motorcycle ride. I’m also pretty sure this dude is blowing past some red lights. Could this video be used in court against the woman who gets off the big

    Walls- "Sunporch"

    The Needle Drop

    First single to drop from Walls’ forthcoming album, Coracle. It’ll be the electronic music duo’s sophomore LP, and it’s getting a release via Kompakt. As of right now, I’m completely smitten with the song above, “Sunporch.” The groove is absolutely irresistible. It’s a little repetitive

    Red Hot Chili Peppers- I'm With You

    The Needle Drop

    One of the longest-running acts in alternative rock has a new album out, Considering I grew up with a lotta this band’s stuff on the radio, I thought I’d be a little more excited to hear the Chili Peppers have a new album out, Sadly, I wasn’t,

    Stream Hella's Tripper

    The Needle Drop

    Tripper by Hella Back to duo status, California’s Hella recently dropped its fifth album, Tripper. The band has allowed fans to stream the album on Bandcamp, which is a nice trend I’m seeing with all new Zach Hill-releated projects. Of course, I hope this give people an incentive

    Rational Animals- "Crumbling Buildings"

    The Needle Drop

    New York’s Rational Animals are a difficult breed to describe. Metal, hardcore punk, post-hardcore, and insanely aggressive garage rock all flow within the veins of these four dudes. It makes me wanna spit out one of those hybrid comparisons: It’s kinda like a cross between Drive Like Jehu

    Jack White and Insane Clown Posse- "Leck Mich Im Arsch"

    The Needle Drop

    So, yeah, this exists. Soon it’ll exist physically via Third Man Recs on a 7″ record, which features the b-side “Mountain Girl.” I don’t know whether to laugh or throw up. Let me try to figure out a way to do both.

    Timber Timbre- "Too Old To Die Young"

    The Needle Drop

    “Too Old To Die Young” isn’t my favorite from Timber Timbre’s new album, Creep On Creepin’ On, but this is becoming my favorite music video to come outta the project. With a series of crude pencil drawings, this animated video dishes out an array of disturbing transformations. Enjoy,

    Ganglians Session w/TErroreyes

    The Needle Drop

    Sacramento psych outfit Ganglians have a new album out titled Still Living, which is slathered in a slightly soured Beach Boys-like sheen. To me, it’s a mutant’s take on sunshine pop from the 60s. The band recently did an acoustic session with the people at terroreyes.tv, and

    Yelawolf- "No Hands"

    The Needle Drop

    A new video from Alabama’s Yelawolf, which is featured in Ubisoft’s Driver San Francisco. For now, this track seems kinda relegated to video game fame, but Yela still goes hard. I’m loving the beat on this one, because the horns and dreary synth chords are absolutely gorgeous.
