On this week’s Monday Morning Tape…

…lots of goodness to check out after taking last week off — we’ve got time for neither jibba nor jabba.

Happy Monday.

Louis Berry – Restless

Well this is just fantastic — a little Langhorne Slim vocal rasp (albeit a couple octaves lower), a little “Where the Streets Have No Name” guitar delay/reverb, and a whole lotta fun.

To use a phrase that almost surely doesn’t exist in Mr. Berry’s hometown of Liverpool: “Giddy-up.”

—

Brett Newski – Garage

A good song, appropriately titled.

Land Air Sea Garage is 11 days old and is ready to be your favorite retro-sounding Replacements-ish album of the year.

Bon Iver – 22 (Over Soon) [Bob Moose Extended Cab Version] / 10 dEAThbREasT (Extended Version)

Nice to see Mr. Vernon entering the Thom Yorke phase of his career, complete with head-scratching song titles and synthesized bleeps & bloops.

Sometimes it works very well (see the first song below), sometimes it sounds like a bit of a mess (see the second).

The new record from Bon Iveradiohead is due September 30th on Jagjaguwar Records.

Tasseomancy – Do Easy

Canadian twin sisters get weird on the title track from their forthcoming album. The phrase “serene, drug-induced trance” now has a one-song soundtrack.

—

Tyler Lyle – The Farewell Party / Floating Empire

Tyler Lyle writes good songs. It’s just his thing.

And his Secret Lair project is one of the most unique music distribution methods you’ll likely see this year.

—

Father John Misty – Prius Commercial Demo 1

Well of course this guy released a new demo in a damn Prius commercial.

Of course he did.

—

Tyler Childers – Universal Sound

More goodness from Kentucky’s best-kept musical secret.

Until next week, cheers.
