Hi everyone, here's another helping of free, legal MP3s available right now on these here interwebs...
TWIN SISTER - BAD STREET
http://twinsistermusic.com/music/song/bad-street/
To coincide with Domino signing up the fantastic Twin Sister for their debut album the band have put this awesome little track out for free download on their website. The quintet are touring North America for the next 6 weeks (and if you're going to the show on the 18th in Brooklyn you also get to see the amazing Allo Darlin'). Bad Street is an awesome slice of chilled out, funky electro with traces of C.S.S. and The Fun Lovin' Criminals and bodes very very well for the band's first release.
STEPHEN MALKMUS & THE JICKS - SENATOR

Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks are another band with an album coming out soon. Theirs is called Mirror Traffic, was produced by Beck and contains this fantastic track about what politicians really want. Sounding a lot like American indie, but in a very good way, Senator carries on effortlessly for four and a half minutes, sounding at times like The Pixies, Nick Cave (who I know isn't American!), The Dandy Warhols and (surprisingly) Pavement. Mirror Traffic comes out on August 22nd.
DARK DARK DARK - DAYDREAMING

And so we end with a third song that comes in at well over 4 minutes long. After the electro funk and American indie, here's a bit of atmospheric, piano-led folk. Dark Dark Dark hail from Minnesota and are led, sonically at least, by Nona Marie Invie and her touching, dark vocals. Daydreaming is off the latest Dark Dark Dark album Wild Go, released last year. The track drags you in then swirls around you beautifully, always sounding slightly threatening, as it moves with an assured touch.
So there we go - 3 free, legal MP3s - enjoy! See you later this week for the introduction of another new band in Lend Them Your Ears.
