And those words are stained upon your skin.

If you haven't heard it yet, you should really check out Hanni El Khatib's album "Will The Guns Come Out".
Super solid release.
Here's a gem to entice you.

Shocking, shaking.

Got a promo of Egon from Stones Throw's latest effort in his ongoing aural archaeology series.
This time it comes from Indonesia. Indonesian psych prog/funk/rock to be exact.
It's called "Those Shocking, Shaking Days. Indonesian Hard, Psychedelic, Progressive Rock and Funk: 1970 - 1978" and the whole album kills it.
Check out the title track:

Don't want you to be sad girl, don't want you to be afraid.

And here's the actual track. From the heart-shaped 7". 

I was jamming this track in my DJ sets all last fall and this past winter. 

Good times.
