Jail Weddings “Summer Fades”

–intentionally grainy mostly black and white. reminds me of sexy, moody Brit band Tindersticks as well as harmonizing laid-back 70s pop.

–the L.A. psych-punk noir group has new album Meltdown – A Declaration of Unpopular Emotion [Neurotic Yell / Burger Records] out August 27.

Slothrust “Crockpot”

–another grainy video with strange, disparate images culled together

–Leah Wellbaum has an amazing vocal style– simultaneously emotive and disengaged– that blends gorgeously with the grungy melody.
