New Big Sleep - "Bad Blood"

Another wicked dose of the Big Sleep here. The push to lull you into Sleep Forever began with the gliding, open-hearted "Pinkies," guitarist Danny Barria stepping up to the mic while issuing horizon-surfing six-string bends and pulls. He gets things going here, too, setting an illusory groove with spacious quarter-note chord tones -- until Gabe Rhodes's beat shifts things, the BK trio regrouping and ramping up into a driving post-punk riff-rocker. Sonya sings about her visions, her fears, and trouble close to home -- all while you're pumping fists and realizing suddenly your cruising well over the speed limit. For the commute home, then:
