How Can I Describe A Place So Dark That Life Has Lost Its Face?

Beastellabeast “Clean On The Dirty” – All I know about Beastellabeast is that they are a duo from London, and they put out a 7″ single on Horseglue Records. This song is not from that single. I have no idea what this song is from, actually. The one thing I know is that I’m a sucker for a song that sounds like The Kills dressing up like The Slits for Halloween. (Click here for Beastellabeast’s label’s site, although it is totally uninformative.)

Cobra Killer & Kapajkos “Heavy Rotation” – Cobra Killer unplugged? Ah, not realllllllly, but an album that recasts their back catalogue with Eastern European-style folk arrangements is about as close as they are likely to get. Overall, the songs are much less harsh and leaden, and gain quite a bit from an added jauntiness. Very clever. (Click here to buy it from Boomkat.)
