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:
YouTube Audio Stream: Foo Fighters – Something From Nothing
Music Video: Ex Hex – Waterfall
Erykah Badu went busking in Times Square, and here’s what happened
Watch Neil Young do an interview and play a song with Stephen Colbert
RIP keyboard player Ikey Owens (Jack White, Mars Volta, other bands)
Music Video: Bo Ningen ft. Jehnny Beth – CC
Wilco are releasing greatest hits and rarities compilations this fall
Watch The National pretend to be music teachers on an episode of “Comedy Bang! Bang!”
Music Video: Foxygen – Coulda Been My Love
Once you’re done with that set of distractions, let me offer up another set via some song downloads and streams. Don’t miss songs from Bad Cop, Boyracer, Dominique Young Unique, Kai Altair, Tenderloins and Young Tongue.. In the Soundcloud section after the jump, stream cuts from Andy Stott, Cursive, Hanni El Khatib, Majical Cloudz, Owen (covering Against Me!), Parkay Quarts (Parquet Courts), and more.
