Single Minded: The Black Crowes, NIN, Bauhaus, Kathleen Edwards

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 Black Crowes, “Goodbye Daughters of the Revolution” [Official Site]
Like Radiohead and Nine Inch Nails before them, the Robinson Bros. have self-released their latest record using bold marketing innovations. For just $15.98, fans can acquire the album on a shimmering silver disc, complete with plastic case and a cardboard insert with pictures on it.

Stephen Malkmus & the Jicks, “Cold Son” [Matador]
“I feel like a nympho stuck in a cloister,” goes one line in this new Malkmus single. God bless him. Sixteen years on, and we’re still not completely sure what he’s talking about.

Nine Inch Nails, Ghosts I - IV [Free Partial Download]
Trent Reznor released this album of instrumentals through his Web site Sunday night. We look forward to re-posting these songs two weeks from now, when they’ve been sloppily paired with a bunch of Lil Wayne a cappellas.

Bauhaus, “Black Stone Heart” [MySpace]
What a coincidence! Two days after Trent Reznor releases his new album, his acknowledged forefathers, Bauhaus, release their final one. We’d like to say this one hits the high standards of their impeccable legacy. We’d also like to say that the sky is made of chocolate, and that they are making a movie out of Legend of Zelda.

Kathleen Edwards, “The Cheapest Key” [Official Site]
What’s it going to take for Kathleen to get the hip cachet that Miranda Lambert has recently acquired? She’s been just as good for twice as long.

Ive just bought Warpaint and listened to it 3 times straight. At the end i feel happy because its obvious that The Black Crowes are back being true to themselves and making great music. Warpaint feels like it could have been the follow up to Amorica. It feels honest and real, inspired with wisdom and totally unforced. I look forward to seeing them take these songs and let them grow at The Palais Theatre in Melbourne, Australia on March 29.

I think that Daughters of the revolution is a great song and now that I’ve bought Warpaint I think that the whole album is incredible, it’s where they come from and it shows where they will go in the future. The Black Crowes will fly very far.

There’s nothing I love more than Streaming Samples! Mmmmmm.

For $15.89 I hope the Crowes throw in the Southern Harmony album too. The streaming samples on the website might be worthy of the Maxim review - Yikes.
