Night Watch
I’m still posting standout tracks/videos every night at midnight because why not. (Click here to see them all so far.) Patty Crash is local. She’s fierce. I cannot wait till she drops a whole album.
I’m still posting standout tracks/videos every night at midnight because why not. (Click here to see them all so far.) This is the title track off Aimee Mann’s 2012 album Charmer and I think the song is lovely and the video is great. But the same could be said for “Labrador.” It was a total coinflip. By the way, both videos were directed by Tom Scharpling, legendary host of The Best Show on WFMU.
I’m still posting standout tracks/videos every night at midnight because why not. (Click here to see them all so far.) This year’s Transcendental Youth came in ninth in our Top 21. I’ve never heard a Mountain Goats album I didn’t love.
I’m still posting standout tracks/videos every night at midnight because why not. (Click here to see them all so far.) I’m not a huge fan of this video, but I think “Apocryphon” the song is one of the best things I heard all year. It’s Sabbathious, heavy and kinda nerdy.
I’m still posting standout tracks/videos every night at midnight because why not. (Click here to see them all so far.) A couple year, New Jersey flag-fliers Titus Andronicus stormed through our Top 21 with The Monitor. This year’s Local Business was more of a slow burn, something you need to spend some time with.
I’m still posting standout tracks/videos every night at midnight because why not. (Click here to see them all so far.) I’m not endorsing coke or yoga, but i recommend you get hooked on Philly rapper Ethel Cee.
I’m still posting standout tracks/videos every night at midnight because why not. (Click here to see them all so far.) I knew people liked Kendrick Lamar but I had no idea everybody was into him until I was putting together City Paper’s Top 21 Albums of the Year list.
I’m still posting standout tracks/videos every night at midnight because why not. (Click here to see them all so far.) King Tuff is great. They are on Sub Pop. Critic Mike Pelusi was really into them this year. Check out his Top 10 list here.
I’m still posting standout tracks/videos every night at midnight for some reason. (Click here to see them all so far.) I got a little bored of my own indie crap again so I asked photographer Neal Santos to make a suggestion. He sent me this. I wonder if “I’ve been everywhere, man” is a common enough phrase that Rihanna didn’t have to pony up to the Johnny Cash estate.

I’m still posting standout tracks/videos every night at midnight for some reason. (Click here to see them all so far.) There are a lot of bands with similar names; this is The Hungry Ghost (singular) a trio from Portland. They rock smart and heavy. That’s Sara Lund from the Corin Tucker Band and the late, lamented Unwound on drums and Andrew Price from Irving Klaw Trio singing and playing guitar. (I had a sizeable Pacific Northwest vinyl/cassette-collecting phase, so these people are famous to me, anyway.)
