White's Not My Color This Evening - Cherry Glazerr

Everything about this is just hella dope. Love how Clementine Creevy's voice is sweet and harsh. Love how garage band punk the sound is. Love the music video of the menstruating girl kicking the crap out of some asshole sk8r boi for laughing at her. And love the shoes she wears. Too bad that video is not available on here for some reason. So here's a live version.

 I was looking for some punk/alternative rock with female vocals and Cherry Glazerr is what I was drawn to. I will always be drawn to this kind of sound. It's so great. Sadly, I don't know much else about the band except they just came out with a new album, Apocalipstick.

They appear to be touring quite a bit this year, even making an appearance in dear old Des Moines, IA 9/13/17 at the Vaudeville Mews! I might have to go if I can get my shit together and remember to do so.


UPDATE 9/16/17:

I did end up going to the concert in Des Moines with my friend Cody. It was pretty rad. Also, the Vaudeville Mews as a venue was much smaller, and also much larger than I pictured. I basically stood next to the wall the whole time trying to see between the heads of tall blonde girls. Even in my favorite platform sandals, I was still too short. My only critique would be that the vocals were not coming in as clearly as they could've, but that could have been anyone's fault, not necessarily the band's. They still sounded great!

Where Would I Be? - Gwen Stefani

If you don't know who Gwen Stefani is, I'd like to know what rock you've been living under. Must be a pretty nice rock or something to never leave it. Anyway, I've been under my own rock apparently since this song came out in 2016 and I just heard it yesterday. It's basically been on repeat since.

It has a very Lily Allen feel to it, and Gwen's voice, which is always rad. Apparently the Lily Allen vibe is because it was produced by Greg Kurstin, who wrote/produced two of Lily Allen's albums. That bouncy reggae beat with the warped vocal blends, just begs you to jump up and dance. I didn't set out to find a dance song when I was randomly song hopping on YouTube yesterday, but I'm glad I did. 

I'm also glad Gwen is doing some solo stuff lately that I can appreciate. Also on my current love list for her (although they are constantly on the radio) are Misery, Used To Love You, and Make Me Like You.
