Welcome back, friends. Another year of music is upon us and the early offerings were pleasantly soaked up with headphones under our stocking caps. The first month of the year brought us a few wintery gems spanning from radio favorites to laid back indie-pop melodies. It started off with Jane's Addiction releasing their second single off of The Great Escape Artist, the massive "Underground" which finds Perry Farrell back at the top of his game. Jam-rockers moe. delivered the alt-country thrasher "Downward Facing Dog", a tune off their brand new What Happened to the La Las where the band shows off their impressive slide-guitar skills. This month also featured the return of James Mercer's indie-rock outfit The Shins. They are back in action with the first single off their upcoming Port of Morrow entitled "Simple Song." If this is just a taste of what's to come this year, it looks like we are in luck as the alternative music world spins into a new year.
