SSLYBY @ DAYTROTTER

It's been a good couple weeks for free music. Delivering with fresh takes on some of their newest album "Pershing's" best tracks, Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin is the latest band to make a triumphant return to Daytrotter.com. "Glue Girls" and "Think I Wanna Die" are two of the band's strongest new offerings and they are included in the session along with two other album tracks. "Think I Wanna Die" translates wonderfully in the live studio rendition possessing a real spirit of liveliness despite the tunes ironically morose title. "Glue Girls" on the other hand struggles a bit to match its recorded glory, and sadly leaves a little to be desired. The final addition to the session is an interestingly chosen cover of the Hole song "Miss World" (very much in the vein of Okkervil River's recent session where Will Sheff chose to cover a female narrative as well.) Shoot on over and give it a download, I assure you it is well worth the effort. My only real complaint is that "Heers" is nowhere to be found because that has easily grown into my favorite track from the new album. But, it's hard to complain with five free songs now isn't it? SSLYBY is set to play Great Scott in Allston with Via Audio on April 20th. The show is an 18+ affair, sorry kiddies.
