Ok ok ok it's a Tuesday and this update is coming late, my apologies new music pioneers. My corporate life took over and pressed me to this late New Noize write-up. But hey it's a new month, a new quarter, and here is the latest in New Noize.
Before I blast off I want to mention that this Sunday's New Noize is dedicated to both my younger brothers, Hamza and Rohan, both born on October 1st. They are 8 years apart and have been a constant source of brotherly ridiculousness. All jokes aside clan Ahmed is always strong even though we are physically apart. There is not a day I am in awe of these 2 amazing humans which I call family. Happy birthday little bros.
Ok up first is the New Noize Song of the Week is technically a song that came out the week before but in my defense do you know how much actual new music I go through? It's A LOT and things slip through but luckily I go around to play the new Pile this past Sunday. Their latest single "The Birds Attacked My Hot Air Balloon" of their upcoming EP Hot Air Balloon is worth your time.
So many album drops make picking the New Noize album of the week a burden but an exciting burden. The Wilco record is the solid cover to cover, Cherry Glazerr just released her best work to date, Slow Pulp is on the fast track of dopeness with "Yard" and least we forget all metal records I played in hour number 2! So who ended up on top? Blonde Redhead secured the New Noize Album of the Week. It has been a long time since their last record and I almost forgot how well crafted their albums are. It's like getting a postcard in today's times from that one friend that is always too busy galivanting in some other country and could have sent you a text but instead writes you a handwritten note with some sort of food foreign sauce stain that cause emotionally positive reaction immediately after reading it. What I am trying to say is check out "Sit Down For Dinner"
Again so many wonderful album releases it was hard to keep up but I did want to give an extra mention to YENSHIN!, a still an unsigned artist that produces tracks that everyone should hear. Seriously check out his latest ep "THIS MAKES THIRTEEN" which coincidentally has some serious Halloween vibes.
I saw Foo Fighters and Odezsa (Thursday & Saturday) both at the SBBowl. Two of the best shows almost back to back make for an exciting social life and a tired Ahmed.
Last point, October is a stacked month for my fellow haduken throwers. As my video game backlog keeps getting bigger decisions on what to play and what to wait on weighs heavy on my gamer soul. Spider-Man 2 and Super Mario Wonder both drop on the same day, which one should I play??? Maybe I'll let the people decide. For real let me know what I should pick up.
Catch you post Friday the 13th.
