“Sweetest Touch”

From The Sweet Sound of Nothing’s Bandcamp page:

Gross Magic is Brighton based dude Sam McGarrigle, this is his debut release “Teen Jamz EP” featuring 5 tracks recalling the pop sensibility of ELO, the grunge riffs of early Nirvana, the care-free adolescence of Loser-era Beck and the lo-fi production of Ariel Pink.

****FLASHBACK FRIDAY****

Nirvana

“Even In His Youth”

“Even In His Youth” was the B-side to “Smells Like Teen Spirit” released on cassette single September 10, 1991.  

I can not remember how I ended up with that cassette single, but I’m glad I did.  I would burn through it and eventually Nevermind would be the first CD I ever owned.

For me, Nevermind stands less as a great record that I was into as a kid, but more as the catalyst of change that would permanently alter my perceptions of, and desires for, recorded music.

“Nobody Eats My Dinner”

I love the raw Nirvana meets Strokes vibe of this single from Brooklyn’s Motive.  It is classic self-loathing slacker rock with a hint of fuck off and a smile.  I might be biased because I mixed this cut, but I don’t think so.  

Get it.
