SistersFeet In the groundSpartan records [bandcamp width=100% height=120 album=3915109158 size=large bgcol=ffffff linkcol=0687f5 tracklist=false artwork=small] Any band that describes themselves as minor threat being recorded through a queen of the stone age machine is bound to pique my interest.

Play of the day is a feel good Friday
Overall there's a feel good Superchunk factor right through here for your Friday. A vibrant indie rock re-take on the Bedhead EP the band released a decade ago

Play of the day from the Steves
Iron Lung re-release of the Steves extremely limited 7" - too robotic to be “punk” and too unruly to be anything else
