New in New Music Friday, two things. First, for each song posted, I'm going to list the genre, or at least my best guess. And B, for each artist I post, I'll link back to that artist page in Zune Social. From now on, when you click the band name in each of the NMF links, you'll get to their page in the Social. We're cool like that. Ok, let's get to it:
- First up this week, Stereogum has a new track from What Made Milwaukie Famous (rock)
- Tromboneforhire, a buddy of mine in Social is hosting a free MP3 on his site: soul singer Natalie Martin.
- Head over to 'tracks for a great remix of NIN's classic "Hurt" (gothic/industrial rock?)
- You Ain't no Picasso has a track from The Monkees, which he calls "delightfully psychedelic"
- Sweet! Head over to MOKB for three Tapes N Tapes tracks (rock that is awesome).
- Cool mashup - Vampire Weekend (rock, also awesome) vs Styles P (rap), get the MP3 over at Gorilla vs Bear.
- Check out Drug Rug, over at Rockinsider, who urges "look past the name." And you should; they are awesome (rock).
- And, Frightened Rabbit rock Cleveland (rock)
- More in the long line of awesome covers that are awesome: check out The Decemberists frontman Colin Meloy covering Morrissey (rock), over at Aquarium Drunkard
- And last but certainly not not-awesome, folk/country singer Barton Carroll has a pair of tracks at 3Hive
If you think I totally got the genre wrong, leave a comment; I'll fix. Ok, have a great weekend everybody!
