"My latest, favorite 45 was hiding in plain sight, in a stack of singles topped by recent Record Store Day releases. It was also two years old: &amp;quot;Blow the House Down&amp;quot; by Darlingside, a Massachusetts quartet with a rich line in acoustic textures and chamber-rock dynamics. I remembered liking that A-side the first time around. I played it again the other day &amp;#x2013; then again and again. Its melancholy pull &amp;#x2013; suggesting the Byrds&amp;apos; choral flow draped over the rustic-Sixties reinvention of the early-Eighties singles by Scotland&amp;apos;s Aztec Camera &amp;#x2013; is now in daily rotation.\r\n&amp;quot;Blow the House Down&amp;quot; is on Darlingside&amp;apos;s 2012 album, Pilot Machines (darlingside.com), and the band tours this summer in support of a new EP, Woodstock (Signature Sounds), with singer-songwriter Heather Maloney. The rest of this playlist covers my latest month in discovery &amp;#x2013; the stark street-war hip-hop of Britain&amp;apos;s Sleaford Mods &amp;#x2013; and recent gigs, includingBrooklyn distortion unit the Men opening for a reunited Flamin&amp;apos; Groovies in New Orleans and New York singer-performance artist Tammy Faye Starlite&amp;apos;s recreation of Marianne Faithfull&amp;apos;s 1979 album, Broken English, in poignant, lethally honest character.\r\n"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
