Listening Post: Bonus Edition

Sure I've posted quite a bit of music from Spinnerette lately, but so what? It's my site, dammit. More importantly, Brody Dalle is the hottest, coolest, sexiest woman in rock and roll right now (making her husband, Josh Homme, the luckiest bastard in the world) and I just can't get enough of her.

The official video for Baptized by Fire has finally been released, and it's everything I'd hoped for. Namely, a lot of Brody looking really, really good. (I already knew the song was amazing.)

No embedding available on this one, but do yourself a favor and make the half-second worth of extra effort to check it out.

Spinnerette -- Baptized by Fire.

Listening Post

I've raved quite a bit lately about Spinnerette -- Brody Dalle's current project and the new band I'm most excited about at the moment -- and this acoustic version of the first single off their full-length album will give you an idea why.

Brody's voice on the record is fantastic, but here -- all passionate, smoky growl -- it's just mind-blowing.

This is Baptized by Fire.



Just for the hell of it, here's the original studio version (and I have a feeling this is going to be my official "summer song," for more reasons than one).

Listening Post

Punk goddess Brody Dalle -- wife of Queens of the Stone Age frontman Josh Homme -- is one of my favorite women in the universe. She's tough, talented, hot as hell, and a damn good songwriter.

Her new band, Spinnerette, which she put together with unsung musical hero Alain Johannes, is everything I'd hoped it would be.

Which means that you likely won't be able to get this song out of your head today. Along with Kevin Rudolf's Let It Rock, it's probably the best and most unexpected single of the new year so far.

Here's Ghetto Love.
