Morninglory’s employee pick of the week: Pissed Jeans’ Hope for Men

Barely a month old, Hope for Men by Pissed Jeans is Morninglory employee Dave Esquer’s pick of the week. Comparing their intense sound to the likes of Black Flag, Esquer said, “They’re really kinda rough sounding and just cool: It’s definitely something different.” Esquer highlights the second song on the album, “Secret Admirer” as one definitely worth a listen, “It’s one of the best [songs] I’ve heard in a long time,” he said.

Peter Gabriel's <em>Passion</em>

Just Play Music’s employee pick of the week: Peter Gabriel’s’ Passion

The powerful atmospheric tones brought about by Peter Gabriel’s Passion is this month’s pick from Corey, a Just Play Music employee. Passion is the soundtrack to the movie The Last Temptation of Christ and is, Corey admits, even more satisfying than the movie itself-which is a difficult feat to be sure, as Scorsese is not an easy man to upstage. “The atmospherics are beautiful from start to finish,” Corey said. “When I first heard it I was like, I’m going to listen to this constantly.”
