My favorite Minnesota band (Sorry, Now, Now) Poliça has a new song (and video) wherein lead vocalist Channy Leaneagh interrogates her doppelgänger to a literal bloody mess. Let’s see, there’s punching, choking and bit of water boarding for good measure. Sounds like a recipe for throwing a “Tiff,” if I ever saw one. But violence aside, the song also features Mr. Justin Vernon and is taken from the band’s forthcoming sophomore release Shulamith out later this year. Continue reading “poliça // tiff + justin vernon = official music video”

In life there is both light and darkness. Where you chose to dwell is up to you. But admittedly at times we lose our way trying to make it through the labyrinth of our existence.

Kilo Kish is potent as is, a testament to her tendency to seduce a track right out of it’s aural confines is her latest rendition. On this one she take Jordan Knight‘s Give It 2 U and strips it bare, then adds her own special homegrown blend of spacey and hypnotic. It works. Peace.
