The Oedipus Project
Johnny Rotten, provocateur, malcontent, ex-Sex Pistol and old mate, is Public Image Ltd. with an ever evolving band.
“What the World Needs Now…”, PIL’s latest (since 2012) continues with the spit and anger missing in most modern music.
“Double Trouble”
“Know Now”
New Order, the band that rose from the ashes of Joy Division in 1980, have given us a most compelling album in 2015.
Their first without seminal member Peter Hook, Music Complete is indeed a complete album.
Listen here to “Restless” and “Plastic”, the latter featuring Elly Jackson from the band La Roux.
“Restless”
“Plastic”

Currently I am wandering Europe, so I have been a bit out of touch with this blog.
Superhumanoids have given us a marvelous 2nd album, Do You Feel OK?
As I have just experienced the Biennale in Venice, the song “Anxious in Venice” is appropriate.

Its’ been 5 years since we have had new music from the wonderful Joanna Newsom; the early days of this website.
In the interim she has been acting in a variety of films and the Oedipus Project has flourished.
Her new disc, Divers, is due in October.
“Sapokanikan” is the early release.
Holly Herndon pushes the limits of sound.
If she were a painter she would be considered abstract. She does the same with her music.
“Chorus” and the spoken word “Lonely at the Top” are from her latest album Platform.
“Chorus”
“Lonely at the Top”
Berlin’s finest, Jonathan L.
