episode #258

Twenty-twelve’s already got some new releases, and we play a couple: one by synth-pop duo Chairlift, and another by Calgary’s Rae Spoon. Plus, we peer into a frightening future through an oppressive track from Sleigh Bells’ upcoming Reign of Terror. They’re a duo, too, but apparently of the noise-pop variety (that’s a thing!).
