Bass Drum of Death: ‘I Dunno’ (Demo)

October 24, 2011 0 comments

We love us some Bass Drum of Death! The Oxford, Mississippi 2-piece gave us a little taste of new material today via the band’s Tumbler. The song is called ‘I Dunno’ and can be streamed below. Along with the track, the post read “this is just a rough mix and unmastered, so you may hafta crank it.”

This is the first bit of new material from the band whose debut full-length, ‘GB City,’ dropped earlier this year via Fat Possum Records… Also check out the official video for ‘Get Found,’ which is one of many killer tracks from that LP… ‘GB City’ is available now HERE … And if you’re still craving some more, Bass Drum of Death did a set over at Daytrotter back in June. Stream that full session HERE:

Sonny and the Sunsets: ‘Too Young To Burn’

June 23, 2010 1 Comment

At first we were bummed to hear jj had bailed out of the Pitchfork Music Festival next month… but when we found out Sonny and the Sunsets were taking their place on-stage, it helped fill that void AND THEN SOME!

Get ready to hear a lot more from this San Francisco 4-piece who recently were signed to Fat Possum Records. Their most recent LP, ‘Tomorrow is Alright,’ which was released from their previous label, Soft Abuse, will be re-released by Fat Possum in August… Check out and/or download a track from that LP, ‘Too Young To Burn.’ Definitely one of our favs:
