The Unicorns drop a treat from their reunion—a bonus track from the re-release of their 2003 landmark album 'Who Will Cut Our Hair When We're Gone?'

"Although this is the end of the band, I hope my fans will embrace me as a solo artist in the same way they have embraced Crystal Castles."

"Bear Biscuit," the latest track from Mr Oizo, should come with a whiplash warning.  Opening with an ominous drone, the track explodes into head-banging stupidity, and I mean that in the very best way.  For almost three minutes disconnected voices, abrasive fire-alarm squeals, and steroid-injected glitch mosh together in a beautiful demonstration of organized chaos.  As the dust settles and a broken-record vocal loop closes out the track, one gets the feeling of being in a post-Godzilla Tokyo; equal parts confusion, terror, and amazement.

My first tribepost.

Ruelle is a very new electropop band based out of Nashville, TN - their music has a very dramatic feel to it, which is why you'll likely be hearing it in trailers and television shows if you haven't already. Luckily I love dramatic music. (Reuploaded due to error with previous snap)
