COOLRUNNINGS: “Badlands”
A new track from Knoxville, Tennessee’s COOLRUNNINGS is always cause for a celebration. The crew behind Dracula Horse has put together some of the most titillating and ever-evolving music that’s been passed around the internet over the past few years. “Badlands” is a truly fantastic trip down a whole new delectable rabbit hole for the band, but unfortunately, it also arrived with the frustrated ultimatum that COOLRUNNINGS would not be releasing any new music for at least another year. As happy as I am to have “Badlands” to leave a very much appreciated ringing in my ears, I’m equally as sad to learn that the group’s understandable growing distaste for the state of music critique along with the independent music industry has reached a point of no reckoning. Here’s hoping that they can feel a tiny bit at ease knowing that one silly little guy up in Portland will be eagerly anticipating their eventual triumphant return.
