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:
Watch a short Pitchfork.tv documentary about Class of 2014 artist Mas Ysa
Music Video: Interpol – All the Rage Back Home
Watch the Bruce Springsteen-directed short film “Hunter of Invisible Game”
Music Video: Blood Orange – High Street (ft. Skepta)
Watch SNL’s Vanessa Bayer offer some “Sound Advice” to Haim

Music Video: Cloud Nothings – Psychic Trauma
Watch Courtney Barnett perform the INXS album Kick in its entirety
