We made it through another week, so let's get into some music for the weekend, friends. As I do every Friday, this week's edition of What's Good will feature plenty of new or new to me music videos, album premieres, and fresh singles, along with playlists for you to listen to at your leisure. First though, let's crack into some Bonus Beats, a few bits of music news and ephemera from around the web.
Bonus Beats
Music journalist Natalie Weiner (of The 1959 Project, Don't Rock The Inbox, and Rebawatchables fame) dug into the current decline of the vinyl collector's database Discogs, and how it's fractured from its glory days as the lifeblood of the collecting community.
What's Good alumni Wednesday have a documentary coming from director Zach Romeo called Rat Bastards of Haw Creek coming out next. Check out the trailer up above, and if you haven't already, listen to their album Rat Saw God, which rips.
