Click to listen to Peter Murphy's 'Gaslit'

The moody, richly atmospheric "Gaslit" is the opening track on The Secret Bees of Ninth, an EP collecting b-sides and outtakes from Peter Murphy's most recent solo album, Ninth. The former Bauhaus frontman is as dark and intense as ever on the track, which is just as strong as anything on Ninth. The Secret Bees of Ninth is in stores now, but you can download "Gaslit" for free here.

“Youth Knows No Pain”

Lykke Li | 2011

“Like on 'Youth Knows No Pain' — we are the ones that should demonstrate, because we can take it,” Likke Li said. “We can pierce ourselves, take Ecstasy, dance all night and still go to work at our McDonald's jobs.” Despite the hedonistic sentiment in the song, the Swedish singer also admitted in hindsight her youth had repercussions. “I remember when I was 18-19 and feeling that I know it all,” Li said. “I always feel that I know it all. But that song is about realizing you don’t, and reflecting, ‘Boy, if I only knew what would follow.’”
