Springtime Carnivore’s (nee Greta Morgan) new self titled album has been getting a lot of play in my car the past few days, as I continue to try pretending that eternal summer is a real thing. “Sun Went Black” is a good example of why: Brill Building pop jams with just a tinge of folk and spaghetti western mixed in.

Swift begins “The Bully” with an emphatic “hey buddy…” and ends it two and a half minutes later with a like-minded “…jackass”, and never lets up in between. One of my favorite songs by the producer and touring member of both The Black Keys and The Shins.
