Daryl Johnson is the host of Disposable Existence, airing every Monday from 1 to 3 p.m., where he plays a vast array of delightful music.
Nirvana – “Aneurysm”
One of my favourite Nirvana songs. Not only was it a display of Cobain’s knack for songs that are simultaneously too catchy to resist while delivering satirical references to either drugs or terrible person to whom he was attached, but it is also one of the best tracks from the Incesticide single.
The Number Twelve Looks Like You – “Bambi The Hooker, and A Case of Beer”
TNTLLY are an experimental/math-core band from New Jersey. This song, short and sweet, starts out brutal, gets technical for a second, and then screeches you to a place of auditory displacement not for the weak of mind.
These New Puritans – “5”
A departure from the others on the 2010 album Hidden, the chiming introduction is a clear sign of the emotional soundscape ahead. Supported by a bass horn section and electronic samples, this song’s representation of this band’s future is exciting and bright.
Girls – “Hellhole Ratrace”
Girls’ 2009 Album was one of my top of the list albums of the year; a combination of hip, aloof awkwardness, stellar song writing and sincere immaturity, Album has worked its way into my consciousness. A sensational song from an equally sensational album.
