True Blood is one of HBO’s flagship shows and is a rare example of a drama that maintains its freshness after seven seasons. The ultimate season has been rounded out through the inclusion of a number of more than capable guest and supporting stars making the 10 episodes of the final season extraordinarily easy to watch.

The titular beginning to Any Other Way is a track that ties together Garbage, Atari Teenage Riot, and an earlier, late seventies / early eighties goth sound (Siouxsie and the Banshees, 45 Grave) into something that is instrumentally intense while having a very approachable sound. Flesh and Bone further varies up RxGF’s sound in its inclusion of dual harmonies; the shuffling sound of the synths and drums create an effort…

Hey Darlin’ is soulful, a hint funky, and is completed with a ropey and thick bass line. The production makes the finished…
Can’t get behind Robin Thicke’s white guy soul act (be it because there is too much modern pop and not enough soul in the mix… or maybe just because he’s an asshat)? There are plenty of others who can fill that funk void, from the brilliant Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings to the under-the-radar jams of someone like Caleb Hawley.
