It's magical
Ahh, for sure
Illogical
No sense
Ambivalence
I don't know
If you're looking for a groovy week, "Dollhouse" from blue rockers The Pack a.d. makes for a great song to kick things off. The Pack a.d. is a female duo from Vancouver with a sound heavily influenced by bands like The White Stripes and Band of Skulls. Their new album also titled Dollhouse is out soon.

When I’m around you
I try to keep my distance
‘Cause what I want with you
Is none of your business
Bully rocks and Alicia Bognanno reminds me quite a bit of Carrie Akre, who is one of my favorite rock vocalists of all time. Their new album, Losing, comes out later this month and if "Kills to Be Resistant" is any indication, it's going to be a classic.
RIYL: Cayetana, Slothrust, Hammerbox, White Lung, Ume

She says that living with me is bringing her down
I know this shit that I'm on is bumming me out
I don't wanna try I wanna figure it out
Cause I know that living with me is bringing me down

I didn't either, until about a week ago. "Better Find Out", a terrific, and in this case, appropriately titled, track, showed up in one of the many playlists I follow and I earmarked them for a listen. (Get it?) Anyhoo, I've given their latest, Bulls And Roosters, a couple spins and it's a damn fine album. The back catalog has some diamonds as well. They've got a fairly unique sound; garage rock, but put in a blender and mixed up with...the kitchen sink and refrigerator too. They remind me of some of my favorite Canadian indie bands: Sloan and Library Voices, but with a bit more Cali.
RIYL: Sloan, White Reaper, FIDLAR, The Coathangers, Wavves
