A Place To Bury Strangers - "Straight"

New TracksadminComment

New York's A Place To Bury Strangers has announced a new album for 2015, and they just dropped the first single, and it's titled "Straight." This is one of the most ferocious noise rock bands on the East Coast, and they live up to that reputation with rumbling distortion, squawking guitar feedback, and a driving bassline.

While the band's last record seemed a little distant and underwhelming, this new single sound up close and personal, which is just the way I like it.

Look for the new A Place To Bury Strangers album, Transfixation, via Dead Oceans on February 17th.

Reks- "Autographs" (prod. Statik Selektah)

A new collaborative track from producer Statik Selektah, and a rapper who dropped one of my favorite 2011 hip hop releases, Reks. After the job these guys did together on R.E.K.S., I can't wait to hear what they've got cooking on this forthcoming release, Straight, No Chaser.

"Autographs" starts things off on a positive note, painting the long, winding road Reks has walked during his years in the rap game. Seems like everything is on the up and up, too.
