Song of the Day - Glasgow

Øjne - Glasgow from Undici/Dodici (2013)

Italian Screamo reminiscent of Raein and La quiete.



English subtitles are provided on their bandcamp, but I honestly wouldn't know what they were saying if it was in English. Regardless, "Glasgow" is a great track.

PS: The dialogue in the beginning is from the 1984 film, entitled, Paris, Texas.

Song of the Day - 401

Goddard - 401 from Bishop (2011)

These guys sound like the coolest unknown band from the 90's if they were from the 90's. Definite influences must include Fugazi, Slint, 90's math rock, and Vernors Ginger Ale.
