Starving artist. Literary genius. Weasel under the cocktail cabinet.

In other words, the inimitable Tess Grover.

“I’m Your Queen, I’m Your Cream” - Nostalghia


Something subdued and haunting from Ciscandra. As if anything Nostalghia does isn’t haunting. Subdued, though, that’s a sporadic one, considering Ciscandra has one of the most impressive screams in alternative music, though she uses it sparingly, gracefully. This ain’t screamo punk, after all, it’s gypsy punk for the post apocalypse. And this song in particular is one for when the nuclear reactors are burning low late at night.

 

“Cool For Chaos” - Nostalghia

A new video from the wild children of Los Angeles. My favorite song by the duo, though, will always have to be “I Am Robot Hear Me Glitch.” If you haven’t heard it yet, listen to it below. Listen to it right now.
