WMIG & The Fader Present We Make it Good Vol. 11: Salem
Download We Make it Good Vol. 11: Salem (Click Here)
Salem is a band you’ll probably be hearing a lot more about in the coming year. They released to challenging EPs in 2008 and followed those up with two 7″ this year “Ohk/Sweat” and “Frost/Legend”. They are of a small group of bands really pushing where Goth, Noise and Electronic boundaries can meet and mingle.
Pink socks, a dirty mattress, wallpaper peeling off the walls, empty cough syrup bottles, and soiled wall to wall carpeting all come to mind after repeated listens to this new Salem mix. It’s either the perfect accompaniment to the fall/winter blues or soundtrack to scrawling your name on your bedroom wall in blood, it’s up to you.
They just got together with The Fader and We Make it Good for a ridiculously fantastic dark narcotic of a mix. Imagine DJ screw went way Goth for a minute and there you go! Peep the tracklist below:
1. Psycho Drama – Alkuholiks
2. Salem – Pig Fucker

the cover art for this is the first misstep salem has made. since aesthetic is so important to them, they really need to watch out for crappy designers ruining their image. whoever the designer is is an idiot who clearly does not get it.
