HOT TRAXXX: Cloud Nothings - Stay Useless

MP3: Cloud Nothings - Stay Useless

Holy shit - Cloud Nothings went from a really cool band to something truly special in the blink of an eye! I saw them earlier in the year and it was a hell of time, and goddamn this new album is everything you would want it to be. "Stay Useless" is easily Attack on Memory's centerpiece, a total rock song with Dylan Baldi hitting some chill inducing notes, all masterfully recorded by the great Steve Albini.

It sounds fresh, exciting and most importantly enduring, something that I hope becomes the trend in 2012 - now with the added pressure of the bar being set so high by January's Attack on Memory. Don't miss it.

This Cloud Nothings dude is the real deal. His self titled full length is full of comfortable winter sweaters with the right amount of lint of them.
