Lo Moon Announce New Album, Release New Songs ‘Water’ and ‘Connecticut’

0

Lo Moon has announced their third LP, I Wish You Way More Than Luck. It’s set to arrive on April 5 via Thirty Tigers/The Orchard. The follow-up to 2022’s A Modern Life Both was produced by Mike Davis, with Alan Moulder on mixing duties. Today, the psych-pop quartet has shared two tracks from it, ‘Water’ and ‘Connecticut’. Check out the Saoli Nash and Warren Fu-directed video for ‘Water’ and listen to ‘Connecticut’ below.

“Since all the songs on our new album were inspired by the moment I found my artistic voice as a teenager, I started Water with the riff on an acoustic guitar,” the band’s Matt Lowell explained in a statement. “It really reminded me of something I might play when I was sixteen. It felt whimsical and nostalgic and when the band jumped in it felt like refreshing new ground for us. A couple days before the song appeared I had re-read David Foster Wallace’s transcript of a commencement speech he gave at Kenyon College in 2005. It had a much more profound effect on me from the first time I read it, and I thought the last line of the speech I Wish You Way More Than Luck could work perfectly within the musical framework. In some ways the song felt like it came to us, it’s hard to explain when those things happen, but we’re happy it did.”

Since the Decemberists’s last album, 2018’s I’ll Be Your Girl, Meloy has written several children’s and YA novels. His Wildwood series is currently being adapted into an animated film starring Carey Mulligan, Mahershela Ali, Angela Bassett, Jermaine Clement, Tom Waits, and more.

Tomato Flower Unveil New Single ‘Temple of the Mind’

Tomato Flower have previewed their upcoming debut album No with a new single, ‘Temple of the Mind’, which follows last month’s ‘Saint’. Check it out below.

Toby Keith Dead at 62

Toby Keith, the country superstar who became a symbol of American patriotism and masculinity in the mid-2000s, died yesterday (February 5). According to his website, Keith passed away peacefully in the night, surrounded by family. Though no cause of death was disclosed, he had been diagnosed with stomach cancer in 2021. Keith was 62.

Born on July 8, 1961 in Clinton, Oklahoma, Keith formed the Easy Money Band in the early 1980s while he was playing on a semi-pro football team, the Oklahoma City Drillers. The group began playing at honky-tonks in Oklahoma and Texas before Keith moved to Nashville in the early 1990s in hopes of getting a record deal. He eventually signed to Mercury Records, where he released his self-titled debut album in 1993. It was led by the single ‘Should’ve Been a Cowboy’, which went on to become the most-played country song of the 1990s.

After his tenure at Mercury, Keith signed to DreamWorks Records, achieving a commercial breakthrough with the title track from 1999’s How Do You Like Me Now?! Its follow-up, 2001’s Pull My Chain, went double platinum and spawned three No. 1 singles. In 2002, Keith released ‘Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue (The Angry American)’, a divisive song written in response to the terrorist attacks on September 11, as the lead single from his album Unleashed. Though he described himself as “a conservative Democrat who is sometimes embarrassed for his party,” he later re-registered as an independent and performed at events for Presidents George W. Bush, Barack Obama, and Donald Trump.

Keith’s highest-charting Hot 100 single came in 2012 with ‘Red Solo Cup’, and he continued dominating the country album charts with records like 2013’s Drinks After Work and 2015’s Hope on the Rocks. He put out a total of nineteen albums, most recently Peso in My Pocket in 2021. That same year, Trump awarded Keith the National Medal of the Arts.

Mannequin Pussy Drop New Single ‘Nothing Like’

0

Mannequin Pussy have shared a new single, ‘Nothing Like’, lifted from their forthcoming LP I Got Heaven. It follows previous entries ‘I Don’t Know You’, ‘Sometimes’, and the title track. Check out its accompanying video, which was generated using AI by director Connor Clarke, below.

“‘Nothing Like’ is pure fantasy,” Marisa Dabice explained in a press release. “Originally inspired by a stoned out night 6 years ago spent watching an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer in which Buffy is forced to kill her lover, Angel, before he destroys the world. The song existed in fragments until it finally met its final form last year. Young love is so often all consuming, dangerous, and heightened to mythological proportions – ‘Nothing Like’ sought to mix the balance of both the light feelings of new love and the absolute depths that obsession can bring you to.”

I Got Heaven comes out March 1 on Epitaph.

Pissed Jeans Share New Single ‘Sixty-Two Thousand Dollars in Debt’

A. Savage Unveils New Single ‘Black Holes, the Stars and You’

0

Parquet Courts’ A. Savage has released a new standalone single, ‘Black Holes, the Stars and You’, which was recorded in the same session as his recent solo LP Several Songs About Fire. Listen to it below.

“’Black Holes, the Stars and You’ was recorded in the same session as Several Songs about Fire, but didn’t make the record because albums can only be so long,” Savage explained in a statement. “It was a tough decision to make, but ultimately I felt it was good enough to get its own release. I love the groove that John Parish and Dylan Hadley lay down here, using various latin percussion instruments. It’s a song that I’d been working on for a few years, that had way too many parts and lyrics, which John really helped me sculpt down into what it is now, bless him. The song is about the different ways people see each other, and how the smaller we feel the bigger others seem. Sometimes you find yourself orbiting someone who has no idea of their own magnitude. Sometimes you feel like they are examining you in a Petri dish, their gaze a magnified eye in the sky.”

How To Make Money In Online Casino: 5 Trendy Ways To Start

Online casinos have become very popular among people who want to earn money in an easy way. However, not everyone can make a profit from it. If you are one of those people, it’s time to ask yourself why that is. 

To be successful in gambling, you need to update your skillset constantly. Otherwise, you won’t be able to earn well using outdated methods. 

There are many online casinos to choose from, but not all of them are trustworthy. If you’re having trouble selecting a reliable one, consider some trustworthy US-based online casino sites

They provide information on the best casinos, such as bonuses, different payment methods, and reputability.

But out of this, after selecting a site, how can you make money in online casinos?

So, to help you read this article, we have discussed some fantastic tips that can help you make money in online casinos.

5 Tips How To Make Money In Online Casinos

Online casino sites provide various opportunities to earn good profits. However, not everyone is fortunate enough to take advantage of these changes. But you can definitely move forward in this journey by remembering some effective tips. In this regard, let us explore some different ways that can assist you in making more money while gambling online.

1. Always Choose The Authentic Online Casinos

It is always recommended to conduct proper research before choosing online casinos or applications, whether you are a beginner or an experienced gambler. Reading reviews posted by other users can be a helpful way to gain more information about a site. These reviews can provide valuable insights from people who have already had some experience with the site.

In addition to reading reviews, it is essential to check whether the games or applications are compatible with your device before choosing an authentic gambling site.

There are also independent casino sites in the online casino industry that offer unique features. Experienced players often mention these features, making them worth considering while selecting a casino site.

2. Do Not Risk All Of Your Money

We understand that many gamblers aim to make significant profits while betting. However, we strongly advise against investing or betting all your money in these games. It is important to begin by taking smaller risks. Gambling is unpredictable, and one must understand that it is not wise to put all their finances at stake as there is always a chance of losing.

3. Always Be Consistent And Collect Bonuses

Consistency is crucial to achieving our goals in life, as well as in betting. If a gambler is inconsistent, they may miss out on various opportunities to earn money from online betting sites. These sites regularly update their applications with bonuses, and it’s important not to miss any chances to claim them. This can only be achieved through consistent gameplay.

4. Avoid Having Alcohol While Betting

Some people have a habit of drinking alcohol while playing online casino games, but this is not a good practice, especially when betting. Alcohol impairs one’s judgment, and people may end up taking bigger risks in gambling. This is one of the main reasons many Las Vegas casinos offer their customers drinks. Therefore, it is advisable to stay alert and in control while making any decisions related to gambling.

5. Use Skills Instead Of Depending Upon Your Luck

Gambling is inherently unpredictable, and winning often comes down to luck. However, this is not always the case, as gamblers with the right skills and effective strategies can increase their chances of success. It is, therefore, unwise to rely solely on luck and wait for a winning streak to come your way. Instead, it is recommended that you learn new skills and apply them to your gambling pursuits to improve your chances of winning.

How To Choose A Reliable Casino Website?

After knowing how to make money at online casinos, the next step is choosing reliable online casinos. 

Many people new to online gambling are curious about what to expect and how to get started. Even seasoned gamblers may switch to online casinos for various reasons. Before placing any bets online, choosing a reliable site is important. There are several criteria to consider when making this decision. First and foremost, the online casino must have a valid license, as unlicensed platforms can be fraudulent.

Reading site reviews before trusting it with your money is also a good idea. Furthermore, the casino’s design and navigation should be clear and user-friendly, particularly if they market themselves as the best and most trustworthy in the business. It’s also crucial to know the minimum and maximum betting limits and to inquire with the technical support team about the maximum payout for big winnings. 

Another important factor to consider when choosing an online casino is the variety of available games. The more games a website offers, the more appealing it is to users, and a wide selection of games often indicates high traffic levels. A good online casino should have a minimum of 500 machines, including card games, roulette, sports betting, and slot machines. Finally, the game portal must be multilingual so players worldwide can access it.

Final Thoughts: Unique Ways to Make Money from the Online Gambling

If you’ve been considering tackling an entrepreneurial journey and are searching for an industry with tremendous growth potential, you might want to consider online gambling. 

It’s a dynamic and ever-evolving industry that’s constantly on the rise, and it presents a great opportunity for aspiring business owners to carve out a lucrative niche for themselves.

With the right amount of effort, dedication, and resources, you can establish your online casino and generate profits quickly. 

This article provides a step-by-step guide to help you navigate setting up your online casino. It includes detailed information, from acquiring the necessary licenses and permits to choosing the right software and payment processing solutions.

From Day to Night: How Long Sleeve Dresses Offer Versatile Fashion Choices

In the ever-evolving world of fashion, the quest for versatile wardrobe pieces is a constant pursuit. Long-sleeve dresses have emerged as timeless and adaptable garments that seamlessly transition from day to night. These dresses, with their diverse styles and fabrics, offer many fashion choices for women seeking comfort, elegance, and flexibility in their daily attire.

The Rise of Long-Sleeve Dresses

Long-sleeve dresses have a rich history dating back centuries, and their evolution has been a reflection of changing societal norms and fashion trends. In the early 19th century, long sleeves were a staple in women’s clothing, symbolizing modesty and femininity. As fashion progressed, dresses with shorter sleeves gained popularity, only to see a resurgence of the long-sleeved style in various forms in the latter part of the 20th century.

Daytime Elegance: Long Sleeves for Professional Chic

Long-sleeve dresses are the epitome of sophistication, making them ideal for professional settings. The workplace demands a balance between professionalism and personal style, and long-sleeved dresses effortlessly meet this requirement.

A knee-length or midi long-sleeve dress in solid colors or subtle patterns exudes professionalism while maintaining a feminine touch. The sleeves provide coverage, making it suitable for conservative workplaces where sleeveless or short-sleeved dresses might be less acceptable. Fabrics like cotton, linen, or blends with a slight stretch ensure comfort throughout the day, allowing for ease of movement without sacrificing style.

The versatility of long-sleeve dresses is further enhanced by their compatibility with various accessories. A statement belt, a tailored blazer, or a pair of classic pumps can elevate the dress, transforming it into a powerful ensemble that commands attention in the boardroom.

Casual Comfort: Long-Sleeve Dresses for Everyday Chic

While long-sleeved dresses are undoubtedly suitable for professional environments, their adaptability also extends to casual settings. Whether it’s a weekend brunch, a shopping spree, or a stroll in the park, long-sleeved dresses effortlessly bridge the gap between comfort and style.

Casual long-sleeve dresses often feature relaxed silhouettes, breathable fabrics, and playful prints. Maxi dresses, in particular, are a popular choice for a laid-back day out. The longer sleeves provide coverage against the sun, making them practical for outdoor activities, while the flowing design adds an element of bohemian charm.

Pairing casual long-sleeve dresses with casual sneakers or sandals creates a relaxed and effortlessly chic look. Adding a denim jacket or a wide-brimmed hat can enhance the ensemble, showcasing the adaptability of long-sleeved dresses for various casual occasions.

Chic Evenings: Elevating Style for Nighttime Glamour

For fashion enthusiasts in regions such as KSA & UAE, long-sleeve dresses provide a chic yet modest option suitable for varying styles and occasions. As Trendyol: One Stop Fashion Shop* showcases, these dresses for women KSA & UAE offer an extensive collection accommodating to the cultural sensibilities while ensuring versatility from daytime elegance to nighttime glamour.

Long-sleeve dresses seamlessly transition from daytime casual to evening glamour, proving their worth as an indispensable item in any wardrobe. The same dress that exudes professionalism during the day can effortlessly transform into a stunning outfit for a night on the town.

For evening wear, long-sleeved black dresses often feature more intricate details, such as lace, sequins, or embellishments. The longer sleeves add an element of sophistication, balancing the allure of a more daring neckline or a higher slit. Darker hues or bold prints contribute to the dramatic effect, making the dress suitable for a cocktail party, a dinner date, or a night at the theater.

Seasonal Transitions: Long-Sleeve Dresses for Year-Round Appeal

One of the key advantages of long-sleeved dresses is their adaptability to different seasons. In colder months, long sleeves provide the necessary warmth, allowing women to showcase their style without compromising on comfort. Fabrics like wool, cashmere, or heavier blends offer insulation while maintaining a fashionable edge.

During the warmer seasons, long-sleeved dresses made from lightweight materials like chiffon, silk, or jersey provide coverage without causing overheating. Breathable fabrics ensure comfort, while the longer sleeves protect against the sun’s rays, making these dresses a versatile choice for spring and summer.

Conclusion: The Endless Possibilities of Long-Sleeve Dresses

In conclusion, long-sleeved dresses have solidified their place in the fashion world as a versatile and timeless wardrobe staple. From the professional setting to casual outings and glamorous evenings, these dresses seamlessly transition from day to night, providing women with endless possibilities to express their style.

As fashion continues to evolve, the enduring appeal of long-sleeved dresses remains a testament to their ability to meet the multifaceted needs of modern women. With the right styling and accessories, long-sleeved dresses empower women to embrace their individuality, exuding confidence and elegance from dawn to dusk.
