No Age: "Send Me"

-
Myself currently employed at a corporate entity, I've certainly been exposed to and/or required to attend the sort of soul-sucking meetings addressed in the latest No Age video for the song, "Send Me."  I will say, though, I haven't had to be taught how to use a stapler, so this video certainly depicts a level of day job hell I've yet to experience. 

As far as the song, "Send Me" is the type of glossy, lo-fidelity track No Age is known to produce, jangly riffs and a quivering tonal backdrop that deepens the duo's sound.  This song is featured in the band's Drag City debut, Snares Like A Haircut, which is releasing January 26th.

Check out the video below.  All info on the release was provided by mutante-inc. 



No Age Save The People

Looking for an escape from the thundering monotony of the nine-to-five? Sign up for the New No Age, Snares Like A Haircut! The album is classic No Age - well considered from several angles, and handsomely produced to shatter the windshield of your existence - so that you can feel the wind of LIFE in your face for one screaming moment! Snares Like A Haircut rips with drive and haze like a well-oiled machine, condensing raw force into the shape of a pop song with unusual flair. Thanks No Age!

 Directed by visual artist and filmmaker Jonn Herschend in collaboration with No Age, the video for "Send Me" features Beth Lisick, representing the ID in the workplace, fleeing from the drone of Randy and Dean as they demonstrate the latest office supplies and the procedures to follow them. Maybe you too are more interested in saying "fuck it" to the 9 to 5 lifestyle? If so, "Send Me" gots your back! Watch the video over on SPIN right now and catch the band at the following dates here in the new no age of 2018.

A veritable sea of hits began with Ellie Greenwich, who passed away yesterday at the age of 68 . "Leader Of The Pack" ”Da Do Run Run” Without trying, you've heard at least a dozen of her songs, her name synonymous with "girl groups," and a pre-lethal Phil Spector . Farewell to a hit machine.

The Mailbox Giveth: Sleaford Mods

Sleaford Mods Chubbed Up + Ipecac Recordings Released:11.29.14 Sleaford Mods is an interesting entity. Following much of the rhythmic and minimal throb of Factory-era post-punk and, of course, hip hop's rise from being a "sample sport," as Public Enemy once put it, to the largely trap-centric hit machine it is today, Sleaford Mods embodies a tirade-level synthesis of the two: a beat-powered device with which to bathe in poetic and profanity-laced commentary. The group (vocalist Jason Williamson and track maker Andrew Fearn ) gained some notoriety stateside with its 2013 release, Austerity Dogs , despite having been about five albums deep in its discography. The group's new release, Chubbed Up +, is a singles compilation that includes three previously unreleased tracks. It was released by Ipecac Recordings. The mostly repetitious loop'd loop of springy bass riffs and flat percussion offer Sleaford Mods the distinction of being the more sophistica

What I Heard This Morning: Breton

I received an email via Sure Shot PR that was promoting Hemlock Recordings as well as their new acquisition, Breton . The band has a new EP out: A digital release entitled, Counter Balance . “RDI” is the song I sampled and it is a post-rock-meets-electronica mixture that seems to capitalize a bit on Foals , (an assessment all too accurately made in the press release by a writer for NME). The melodies they pick, though, are catchy and “RDI” really didn’t leave my head all day. They’re not typically a band I would discuss, but I thought Breton were intriguing enough to note. ”RDI” Here's the press info: HEK010 BRETON - Counter Balance EP Digital release: "RDI" "Counter Balance" "December" "Pop Death" "Hours Away" 12" Vinyl: HEK010A: "December" HEK010B1: "Hours Away" HEK010B2: "Counter Balance" With incendiary debuts from James Blake and Fantastic Mr Fox , Hemlock has built
