MP3: Agent Side Grinder - Sleeping fury
Along with the new Susanne Sundfør, here's another one for my best-of-2012 list. Agent Side Grinder's latest LP "Hardware" builds off everything they've done before and yet again further hones it towards perfection: stronger songs, wider dynamics, more diverse and interesting sounds. More moods too. For example, take "Sleeping fury": it has a swagger that's rare for industrial music, but there's no mistaking the simmering rage underneath. Lead single "Wolf hour" was a straight-up verse/chorus pop song; this is something different and far more sinister.

PSA: New Nitad on Spotify
It's a slow newsday due to the Easter holiday weekend, but not all of us get the day off y'know. To help you make it through, allow me to recommend Nitad's excellent new album "Rastlös och vild", now on Spotify. Jesus would approve.
