Jam of the Day: Rare DM - "Jade"
Rare DM, a.k.a. multi-instrumentalist Erin Hoagg, has released her debut record Vanta Black, which takes a gothy take on minimalist electronica. "Jade" is a languid track full of dark synths, with a few twinkly ones that provide a bit of heart and beauty to a song about a destructive relationship. I highly recommend the full album.

Jam of the Day: Lana Del Rey - "The Greatest"
"The Greatest" lives up to its title; being probably Lana Del Rey's best song. It's a haunting meditation on love and loss, and the sad state of the world.

Jam of the Day: Blanck Mass - "Love is a Parasite"
Animated Violence Mild, Fuck Buttons' member Benjamin John Power's fourth album under his Blanck Mass moniker, is a monolithic and intense repurposing of 80s and 90s industrial music. "Love is a Parasite" takes the full-on fury of Nine Inch Nails and Ministry and amps it up even further.

Jam of the Day: Bat for Lashes - "The Hunger"
From her 80s themed concept album Lost Girls, Bat for Lashes previews the record with the sweeping track "The Hunger," which is presumably named after the cult 80s film.

Jam of the Day: Ride - "End Game"
Shoegaze titans Ride return with their new album This Is Not A Safe Space. I am captivated by the moody track "End Game" that blends their ferocious guitar attack with a more contemplative, Church-esque atmosphere.

Jam of the Day: NIMMO - "No More"
London duo NIMMO's new song "No More" is a disco-tinged dance track that is about trying to find the courage to get over a relationship, and exalting in the rush that comes from taking that leap. This is such a great dance track. Check out their excellent record The Power.

Sometimes you need to start your Monday off with a sunny, shining indie-pop song. Indie band Dayglow hit it out of the park with the sweet song about tentative love. Play it loud and sing along.

Jam of the Day: DIIV - "Skin Game"
"Skin Game" is the first track released from DIIV's upcoming record Deceiver. While it starts out as a dreamy, shoegaze pop track, it explodes at the end into a distorted guitar raveup.
