Speaking of the new Explone record, I spent some time last weekend putting together "YouTube singles" (for lack of a better term) for each track of our forthcoming Telescope + Satellite EP, and I figured, why not do Dreamers/Lovers too. So running up to the release of T + S I'll be posting a few of my favorite tracks from Dreamers/Lovers here.
(YouTube perplexes me. Tons of people use it for music discovery, and it seems the easiest way to embed songs anywhere without requiring listeners to have a Spotify or Rdio account. Way to drop the ball, everyone (Except Bandcamp! (and SoundCloud!)!))
"Girl w/ A Black Eye" is one such favorite, and showcases Pat's talent for mashing up Cheap Trick vocals with Hüsker Dü power chords. I always thought this tune never got the love it deserved.
