Guestlist: Yuck


We Talk Musical Influences and Favorites with Yuck

As hopeless music lovers, musical etymology is always fascinating to us. Learning what made a certain work what it is always gives us a richer understanding and appreciation of someone’s craft. In this guest list we linked up with UK’s Yuck, who released their fantastic debut album on Fat Possum earlier this year.

Catch Yuck on tour with Unknown Mortal Orchestra in the US through July and over seas through out the fall.

We’ve got 5 pairs of tickets to their 7/18 show at Turner Hall to give away.Drop a comment here, on our facebook, @reply us on twitter to win one.

PURE X – Twisted Mirror

“The lyrics are so great. pure x are like the new galaxie 500. i think their new album will be incredible.”

Fanzine – Rocket Fuel

“An amazing new london band. they just released an EP free with a funny zine. their songs are really beautiful and melodic. the songwriting is actually mind-blowing. i love the perfectly out-of tune guitar solo at the end of this song. and the rest of it. it’s a perfect perfect perfect pop song.”

LUCINDA WILLIAMS – BLUE

I’ve got really into a few lucinda williams songs recently. This one’s so simple and beautiful.

Machine Gun – Slowdive

“I have recently been listening non-stop to the album ‘Souvlaki’ by Slowdive, this is my favorite song from that album. I find the sounds and instrumentation of this song so unbelievably powerful and emotional.” (Max)

The Velvet Underground – Sister Ray

“This track was recorded in one take and sounds so dirty in every sense. Deep pacific love…” (Mariko)

Ozma – Game Over

“This song comes from Ozmas album Spending Time on the Borderline, one of my all time favo(u)rite albums. Wonderfully melodic vocal melodies combined with awesome synth/guitar harmonies. Oh, and maaassive riffs, what’s not to love?”
