LUV MUSIC - Lo-fi Thursday

Ahh, give me a little fuzzed out girl rock and i'm beyond content. Today, i've got a couple excellent examples of such-one of which i was fortunate enough to see play last night. Both bands encompass the spirit of lo-fi perfectly- with a raw, cassette tape aura that's equal parts scratchy, haunting and completely catchy. 

Dum Dum girls played a short, yet fantastic set last night. And talk about stage presence - in the light of a Lana Del Rey meltdown - these girls commanded the room. Lead singer Dee Dee Penny and her voice, movements and style not only channeled Chrissie Hynde in a Pretenders coolness, but balanced it with a feeling of pure grungey punk - it was perfection. Hope i get a chance to hear them again.

 Next, a little more chill, but equally as interesting, i was recommended Still Corners by a good friend and this song has been on repeat for the past week. Again, a little eerie, but also very pop- enjoy and have a great Thursday!
