Blonde Redhead - For the Damaged Coda
Love the progression and buildup and I have to agree it would have been nice to hear it burn a little longer. It feels like a dramatic overture to a bigger piece, but I wouldn't consider teasing a flaw. If anything it just makes me want to check out the band more.

London Symphony Orchestra - Purple Rain
A harmonica lead? Really? I know uploads of Prince's own recordings still get taken down constantly but that doesn't mean I'll settle for some indifferent orchestral cover commissioned to drum up attendance for the next concert season. It sounded like LSO had no love for the song.

Chase - Open Up Wide
Full of frantic energy, has a freewheeling narrative quality like it's scoring a montage from a sped up blaxploitation flick. Totally rad and zany. Those organ chops near the end killed me.

Frank Turner - Worse Things Happen At Sea
He's not wrong. There's drowning, shark attacks, piracy, naval warfare, oil spills, cruise ship hangovers - all worse than heartbreak. I just wish the song were more focused on the former than the latter. A little less "woe is me she slept around" and a little more "thank god I've never had to deal with decompression sickness though". And the yelling was a bit much. The tune didn't sound bad but it's not my style.

Twelve Foot Ninja - Collateral
Damn this is some good shit. Super chunky and catchy, it never strikes me as corny (usually my one hangup with type of stuff) and the guy has a great voice. If there's one specific sub-genre of metal I'm into it's whatever this one is.
