Song of the Day - Now Kith

Free Throw - Now Kith from Lavender Town (2013)

Not sure why I slept on this band for so long... they have everything I love in a band: samples, references to my childhood (lots of Pokemon and Boy Meets World), and lots of that teen angst twinkly stuff. Hell, they even named a song after me... using an 'E'-less keyboard.

Øjne - Glasgow from Undici/Dodici (2013)

Italian Screamo reminiscent of Raein and La quiete.
