It's all about the emotion with Highlonesome. Besotted with their track Devil At The Door. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=erukHUyLQcA

Sound Of The Day : Anna Von Hausswolff
Why I haven't further explored the music of Anna von Hausswolff before I have no idea. But to be honest, I'm kind of glad that it's taken me a while to get in touch with her sound because I'm always hungry for a new musical world to explore. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5tFWBw0-g1M
Sound Of The Day : Cat Power
Can't get enough of Cat Power, specifically her excellent Cross Bones Style. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wU291yKCbBE
Sound Of The Day : Jen Titus
It was the lovely Sarah Elizabeth of Unquiet Things who alerted me to Jen Titus. The track is featured on a spectacularly spooky playlist that she put together for Death & The Maiden. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZmv7y_goLk

This is one of my favourite projects to emerge in recent years, to be honest, and I've talked about it here before. Vitkispá is a track which I find especially evocative. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w137G9Ye1q8
Sound Of The Day : Ghaal’s Wyrd
I should have been at the very first live performance from Ghaal's Wyrd in Bergen as I was volunteering at the Blekk Metal Festival, but sadly the show was at 1am and after a full day of volunteering I was falling asleep on my feet. Fortunately the show was recorded, and here you can sample… Continue reading Sound Of The Day : Ghaal’s Wyrd
Sound Of The Day : Kauan
I discovered Russian/Ukranian band Kauan and their post rock sound yesterday. I'm awe of Sorni Nai...a 52 minute single- song opus, created as a dedication to the infamous Djatlov Pass Incident. Below you can watch a video made for the first seven minutes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJwsXmM8tsc
