Every Tuesday Single Minded highlights new tracks hitting stores (or the Web) this week. On Fridays, come back for rarities, remixes, mash-ups and more.
The Magnetic Fields, Distortion [Full Album Stream]
We wish more album titles would so accurately reflect what’s contained therein. We’d change the name of the first Mayhem record to Screaming Bloody Apocalypse, and the name of the Josh Groban Christmas record to Please Don’t Ever Play This Around Me Again.
Ringo Starr, Liverpool 8 [Video]
“I always followed my heart, and I never missed a beat,” sings Ringo in the chorus of this song. Sir Paul? Yay? Nay? Let us know the truth at the ol’ Rock Daily e-mail.
Raheem DeVaughan Feat. Big Boi, “Energy” [MySpace]
His MySpace page bills him as the “R&B Hippie NeoSoul Rock Star.” Way to cover your bases. You couldn’t have squeezed ‘polka’ and ‘native american classsical’ in there, too? Anyway — this spry little R&B single makes up for all the adjectives.
Burning Witch, “Sacred Predictions” [MySpace]
“Turning and turning in the widening gyre/ the falcon cannot hear the falconer/ …anarchy is loosed upon the world/ the blood-dimmed tide is loosed.” That was W.B. Yeats writing about Burning Witch in the latest RS. He kind of understates how terrifying it is. Find out for yourself.
My Teenage Stride, “To Live & Die in the Airport Lounge” [YouTube]
This album came out forever ago, but some people are still oblivious to its power. Let’s change that together with a video about zombies, doctors and dudes who disappear.
