Something wicked this way comes.

For those of you that have Sirius Satellite radio, tune in to Ch35 Sirius XMU to hear some rad new songs from Zambri and Royal Baths. We were lucky to catch them playing “Faster, Harder” by Royal Baths while we were driving around. Catch them in a town near you soon as they embark on [...]

Royal Baths slinking and sinister single "Faster, Harder" starts out slow, and by the title you may be able to guess where it goes from there. The video looks like its right out of the 60s Velvet Underground scene from which the San Francisco band derives a lot of its musical influence. The new music video for the song is a cautionary tale: It's usually not a very good sign for your relationship if your significant other is toying with a switchblade, and if you're not careful with that you can

Jeremy Cox and Jigmae Baer started Royal Baths without a plan in mind but soon the foundation for their writing found inspiration from Cox's interest in the alternate and open tunings of delta blues, their shared fascination in the African rhythm of early Chicago blues, and Baer lyrically attempting to reflect with black humor and little judgment, and the thrills and troubles they stumble through.

Great. Brooklyn’s Royal Baths put all my fucked up relationships into one wicked video and I love it. Watch “Faster, Harder” starring super damaged girl Lesley Hann (from Friends) and enter her wicked world. This dark confession of love is taken from Royal Baths’ second full-length Better Luck Next Life, now out on Kanine Records. You can listen to [...]

To celebrate the release of Royal Bath‘s new album “Better Luck Next Life” we premiered their new video for the song “Faster, Harder” on Stereogum today. Check it out as it stars Leslie from another band we love called Friends. All of “Better Luck Next Life” is streaming at Vice & the album for purchase [...]

Royal Baths (aka Jeremy Cox and Jigmae Baer ) posted a new video for the 70s guitar-psychedelic track “Faster, Harder”, a sexy song about a toxic but oh-so-good relationship centered around the chorus: “I love my damaged girl / We share a wicked world.” You know the kind they’re talking about, right? The kind where [...]

Royal Baths’ single “Faster, Harder” is an ode to a fucked up relationship: “I love my damaged girl / We share a wicked world,” repeats the singer as the song churns along, following the female protagonist into darker and darker places. By the end, the singer has fully succumbed to this wicked world, giving up [...]

We've been waiting forever for the release of V V Brown 's sophomore release, Lollipops and Politics , which is finally out this week (pictured), but that's really just scratching the surface of the great releases out this week.

We're also excited for Sharon Van Etten 's Jagjaguwar debut. in addition, Owl City has got a DVD, and Goldfrapp has got a singles collection. There's nothing but great stuff this ...

I'm still not wholeheartedly convinced that I like Royal Baths . I mean, the Brooklyn-via-San Francisco band tick the right boxes - dark, brooding, garage based tendencies, drone tinged rock, a love of Spacemen 3... Yet I can't quite get them. Whether it's because I think/thought they're style over substance, or that they are/were a little over-hyped, I'm not sure. I wasn't enamoured with their debut Litanies (on Woodsist ), but I listened to it quite a bit anyway. Weird. I'm equally flummoxed by how much I'm enjoying them right now. I find ...

This Monday I took to DIY Radio  to play 30 of my favourite mp3 finds from the past two weeks. These are often the tracks I don’t have time to share with you all on the blog - either that, or they’re a little too big to count as ‘new music’ when it comes to MFM’s strict, ridiculous standards.  Here’s the tracklist: Summerays - Toyohashi Sleigh Bells - Comeback Kid Royal Baths - Faster, Harder Swiss alps - Little Dipper Parakeet - Tomorrow Decks - Ghost Girl Lower Dens - Brains Galapagos - I Am My Love Pictureplane - Real Is A Feeling (Grimes Remix) Lapalux ...

After drenching her neighbors in an accidental flood back in 2010 and landing in a million dollar lawsuit, Daphne Guinness is ready to give up her digs at 995 Fifth Avenue. The beer heiress/artist/designer/socialite has listed the 4,118-square-foot apartment for a whopping $14 million and like a scene from our wildest dreams; the photos for the listing are pulled directly from the pages of Architectural Digest Magazine. PHOTOS: Daphne Guinness Couture Exhibition At FIT Daphene, however, is not responsible for outfitting the apartment’s décor in the chic digs, designer Daniel Romualdez is the guy to ...
