Download/Introducing Alex Kemp!


How can it be bad if we both feel good? That's right sir, you tell it. I love a good constant beat that drives a great song. Alex Kemp keeps the beat going with the his new EP Rat D'hotel - Part II - Rat Hears Love Through Thin Walls.  Kemp moved from New York to Rhode Island to for the band Small Factory back in '91, then later on in his career formed the bands Godrays and Assassins.

It's really refreshing to see such thoughtful lyrics that come from the heart. Don't close your eyes, don't hide within..... don't build the bomb that blows us away (Song: Better Yet). All I'm saying is that radioactive-acid-fueled-garbage-pop songs can be catchy as SHIT, but it's hard to appreciate them when you randomly sing/blurt out In the morning buy me eggs completely out of any sort of breakfast context. And I don't mess around with breakfast.

I always manage to get off topic. I never seem to be able to focus. My two favorite songs are Better Yet and Heart Goes Boom. They both have similar key elements that keep it interesting, yet they present different characteristics that display Kemp's diversity and range, while simultaneously distinguishing and defining his own unique sound.

Kemp plans to release a total of 4 EP's. The first one is available on iTunes now (Rat d'hôtel, Pt. 1 - Rat Walks Into a Bar), and the SECOND RELEASE CAME OUT TODAY! Get your $3.96 out of your piggy bank and spoil yourself rotten! ROTTEN! You won't regret it. Out of all the weird things you spend your money on, you won't regret this.

Listen below to Better Yet, watch the Heart Goes Boom official video, and/or download Heart Goes Boom FOR FREE! So many choices!

Word. Don't you just love free sound?
