Snoop Dogg

Sorry about the flakiness in posting over the past week. I’ll try not to make a habit of it. Today’s playlist!

The Dead Kennedys, “D.M.S.O.”

This, from the Kennedys’ final album Bedtime for Democracy, is a pretty atypical track from them. Far from their usual blazing hardcore attack, we’ve instead got something that sounds more like a noir-ish song. Of course, Jello Biafra’s usual sarcasm and unique delivery are still present. The Kennedys were a staple of my high school years, and a lot of their work has held up pretty well over the years, but this is their least essential studio album.

From noise nonsense to gangsta rap to classic soul, we’ve got you covered today!

OK, it’s just those three genres.

Sightings, “Chili Dog”

I originally mistyped this as “Chill Dog”, which is a title I like better. I like it when dogs are chill.

Sightings are an electronic rock-ish trio creating waves of noise on top of often primitive songs. It’s all designed to be difficult to listen to and punishing, and really needs to catch me in the right mood.
