The Sicilian Slice

What We’re Listening To This Week

Steve’s got these on repeat:

Baby Girl – Disco Lines

Keeping the HAUS train rollin…a product of the Boulder, CO native, Disco Lines is for the people. I hope this kicks off your weekend vibes.

Vandal – STXRZ

Been listening to PHONK, specifically “Aggressive Phonk,” music all week, and it’s wild. Urban Dictionary describes the Phonk genre more generally below:

“An underground style of hip-hop/trap music directly inspired by 90s Memphis rap, mostly present on soundcloud as trill style beats with old funk and nostalgic samples, often accompanied by vocals from old Memphis rap tapes. The dark lyrics from these tapes with funk and modern trap creates a contrast which is aesthetically pleasing to the 90s and 2000 kids. The music is brightened and modernized by producer between the age of 16 and 22, thanks to these funky, jazzy sounds mixed with vocals from Triple Six MafiaDJ Paul, DJ Patt, and many more.

The Real Deal – Cold World

Hit ’em with a local HC rec from our bartender at Manatawny, thanks KT.

Gianca’s spinning:

Minister of Rock ‘N Roll – Lenny Kravitz

Find a sexier bass line, don’t worry; I’ll wait. This song is so groovy, and Lenny flexs his vocal range, one of my favs off Baptism.

Breaking the Habit – Linkin Park

Twenty years of this album is making me feel old / some type of way. I remember buying this on CD. This track is just the ultimate breaking out of the void song. We miss you Chester.

Firth of Fifth – Genesis

Prog rock o’clock, do yourself a favor and listen to some of the best 9 minutes of music you’ll ever hear. Old school Genesis hits different.

SONG OF THE WEEK

Last Remaining Light – Audioslave

DROP WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND LISTEN TO THIS ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH. An immaculate production, Tom, Brad, Tim, and Chris came together to put out one of the best albums of the early aughts. Like Chester, we, too, miss Chris immensely. The 7ft Sicilians love this track, but its raw and sobering lyrics open the door to Cornell’s struggles.
