SONG OF THE DAY: Russian Circles – “309”
The first track off the new Russian Circles album Empros is dense, bleak, and sprawling. Listen and connect yourself to the autumnal node.
SONG OF THE DAY: Om — “Thebes”
Put the “OM” in your somnolent Friday afternoon with this lengthy meditation from the Al Cisneros/Emil Amos powerhouse. It is the opening track off their 2009 album God is Good, out now on Drag City.
SONG OF THE DAY: Polvo — “A Link in the Chain”
Infinitely defer your auricular discontent by putting Polvo on infinite repeat. This tune is a great place to start/end/continue. More words and sounds after the jump.
UPCOMING SHOWS: Low with Eef Barzelay of Clem Snide
TOMORROW, Sun. Sept. 25, Low is coming to CC’s Armstrong theater. Tickets are $10 at the Worner Desk with a student ID, doors open at 6:30, and the show starts at 7:00. See you all there.
SONG OF THE DAY: Low — “Try To Sleep”
Low haven’t a blemish on their lengthy discography, and 2011′s C’mon holds its own (to say the least) against the best of their past eight LP’s. The band is bringing their soft-core to CC’s Armstrong Theater on Sunday, September 25th, thanks to KRCC. Until then, listen to C’mon‘s leading track–it will wash you clean.
SONG OF THE DAY: The Field — “Is This Power”
Check out this cosmo-bursting opening track from The Field’s new album, Looping State of Mind.
