The Lacking Permanence

The fourth aggregation of musical replicas and facsimiles!

Do not be intimidated by their size, or their nudity — Naked Giants are just here to have a rocking good time.

Headstrong and filled with boundless energy, Goat bring you a world full of hypnorhythms.

If you're unsure of where you are and need to be put in your place quick, consult Amyl and the Sniffers.

Gather your sins and bring them to Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers.

The end of the year slide has commenced, and things feel somewhat lackadaisical, but there’s still a huge backlog of new music to get through. Among the highlights is a new album from Amyl and the Sniffers, which contains lots of great stuff the FCC would frown on, but I was able to find one track that required minimal editing for compatibility.

AK/DK wield their throbbing oscillators in the greater service of Electropunk.

Don’t let the luxuriant snowy cap of decidedly English hair fool you, Nick Lowe remains sharp and smooth as ever.

If you dig a big fat sawtooth wave riff standing in the front and nearly hitting you in the face with the mic stand, then Brighton's AK/DK has your number. Turn it up and ready yourself to spasm uncontrollably.
