Songs of the Day: King Krule, Rostam Batmanglij, Guided by Voices
King Krule- The Noose of Jah City
London’s very own Archy Marshall is only a 17-years old boy who looks far too young to produce the deep vocals that engulf his first EP. The Noose is haunting yet dreamy. You will float slowly through this track, and through the remainder of his five-track album.

Rostam Batmanglij- Don’t Let it Get to You
