In the latest installment of Christian Rock, contributing editor Christian Hoard talks up Wussy, a Cincinnati quartet with a weak name but powerful indie hooks. A listen to “Death By Misadventure” confirms Hoard’s observation that the Ohio band produces tunes that are “funny and sardonic and really pretty in spots.” Added bonus: Wussy feature former Ass Ponys singer Chuck Cleaver and, as Hoard says, “Sound like what X would have sounded like if they were an aging Midwestern indie band instead of an L.A. punk band.”

Hoard also hypes our exclusive acoustic performance by psychedelic-pop band Of Montreal. Kevin Barnes and crew debuted a new song called “Teenage Unicorn Fisting,” which sounds like David Bowie fronting Queen… with Barnes singing about unicorns eating baby meat.
