It’s Thursday, which means it’s time for another weekly dip into the pool of music news, interviews and videos that I like to call This Week In Music! Yes, in addition to the normal Pick Your Poison mp3s and Soundcloud streams, I like to toss out links to a bunch of other music-related content that I’ve found interesting or worthwhile over the course of the week. I encourage you to check some, if not all of these things out, particularly if you’re looking to waste some time. There’s plenty to see, read and hear:
Music Video: The Lonely Island – Spring Break Anthem (+ “Between Two Ferns”)
Listen to Queens of the Stone Age perform 2 new songs on a Belgian radio station
Music Video: The National – Sea of Love
Watch a short film about DFA Records, narrated by Mark Maron
Music Video: David Bowie – The Next Day
Watch Thom Yorke perform Atoms for Peace’s “Ingenue” live on the Jonathan Ross Show
Music Video: Smith Westerns – Varsity
Music Video: Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Mosquito
As far as today’s Pick Your Poison goes, allow me to recommend tracks from Graham MacRae, Jesse Ruins, Lake Isle, Sam Vicari, Two Inch Astronaut, Wild Moccasins and Wise Blood. In the Soundcloud section after the jump, stream some great songs from Lust For Youth, The Mantles, The Orwells, Tree (ft. Danny Brown) and These New Puritans.
