Lose Tunes, Track 02

Today's edition of Lose Tunes is brought to you by Pow-Wow Botanical Rye, not because they are paying for it but because I am drinking some while writing this entry. (The crack Sales & Marketing staff here at IPL World HQ needs to get busy selling some advertisements.) This is the most weirdly interesting bottle of usquebae that I think I've ever had. Once you get over the fact that it doesn't take your ordinary usque, you just sort of settle in for a nice, easy ride. You can get really hammered on it if you're not careful, because it's so mellow.

Track 02 on the Lose Tunes soundtrack comes from a band from that bastion of rock'n'roll mayhem that is Provo, Utah. This band is called The Moth & The Flame and I was pretty much hooked by the drive of the bass riff the first time I heard this song. And the screaming out of the word "Sorry!" at the end of the song pretty much destined it to be added to the soundtrack of IN PLAY LOSE, "Sorry" being the generic, almost automatic first response to a great many acts of failure in this lifetime.

This band's new EP is a great record, with lots of sound sculptures and a good amount of ambient terror. You should check it out. And as for this video, is there any greater example of ambient terror than life in the 1950s?
