My Morning Jacket shares their heavy and propulsive new single, "Squid Ink," today and it's available now at all streaming services. A psychedelic and visually arresting official music video for the dense and delightfully warped track powered by bassist Tom Blankenship and drummer Patrick Hallahan's massively heavy grooves under a bit of shapeshifting vocal work from lead singer Jim James also premiers today and is streaming now on YouTube.

"The idea behind 'Squid Ink' is that certain people carry a negativity that fills the room like a squid shooting ink into the water," says James, noting that the song arose from a basement jam with Hallahan. "It's about trying to get out of those murky waters by believing in yourself, and when Patrick and I were jamming I got the idea to sing part of the chorus really low - almost like putting a beard on the face of the vocal."

Derision Cult returns with the explosive new single "Joker's Wild (Kings Are Dead)", a genre-defying track that fuses Chicago blues call-and-response with massive industrial metal beats. Featuring guest performances from Chicago cowpunk legend Pete Berwick and Brazilian organist Ronaldo Rodrigues, the track is a high-voltage ride through rebellion, self-exploration, and the struggle to maintain personal integrity in a world that constantly distorts reality.

Originally demoed a decade ago, the song sat untouched until producer Sean Payne immediately saw its potential for thunderous drums and raw energy. What emerged is an electrifying fusion of Buddy Guy and Albert King-inspired blues dynamics ramped up to full industrial aggression. Instead of traditional blues guitar licks, the band brought in Rodrigues to lay down a swirling, URIAH HEEP/DEEP PURPLE-style organ solo, adding a vintage experimental texture reminiscent of '90s industrial pioneers like SISTER MACHINE GUN. Berwick, a Chicago music veteran known for pioneering cowpunk and writing the gonzo-style biography of '70s Illinois band THE BOYZ, delivers a beat poet-style rap that rounds out the track's chaotic, high-energy feel.

How did they get that sound? That is the question we attempt to answer as we celebrate National Guitar Day with the launch of our new series That Sound. For this kick off edition we revisit our classic conversation with Fleetwood Mac legend Lindsey Buckingham where he discussed his guitar sound on the classic hit "Rhiannon".

Our interview editor Morley Seaver had the opportunity to speak with Lindsey back in 2008 about his new album at the time "Gift of Screws". During the interview they touched on his sound in the classic song as well as "going his own way" with his music, especially with the "Tusk" album. (continue)

Brooklyn-based indie/dream pop duo The Dream Eaters recently released their "Deathbed Visions" EP and to celebrate we asked Jake Zavracky to tell us about the single "Spank Bank". Here is the story:

I was in my kitchen humming to myself and those words just came out, "every little picture of you is like a present for my spank bank" and I just went upstairs and grabbed a guitar and sang the chorus into the voice memo recorder on my phone, and in listening back to it just now it was remarkably close to the way it ended up, which is rare for me. It's always nice when you get an idea that comes with lyrics and it's already all essentially fully-formed. It makes the whole songwriting process considerably easier. (continue)
