By Wade Meredith • Published in Weekly Track — Sep 3, 2024 The Rage is Relentless Take the Power Back by Rage Against The Machine explodes like a sonic Molotov cocktail. Kinetic, angry, sincere, and sounds terrific.
Weekly Track "Psychedelic Switch" by Carly Rae Jepsen Audio ice cream with another scoop of ice cream on top. This modern disco track is a killer showcase for vocal expressiveness.
Weekly Track "When the Levee Breaks" by Led Zeppelin There's nothing like those first four bars of "When the Levee Breaks." It's the foundation of a grimy driving bluesy groove as unstoppable as the tide.
Weekly Track "Lisztomania" by Phoenix Lisztomania starts with a click and a piano chord, then the whole thing lifts. It's crisp and airy. Nothing is buried. This pop confection rewards a system that can separate midrange detail.
Weekly Track "Wicked Game" by Daisy Gray Daisy Gray's cover of Wicked Game strips the original to its bones. It's a beautiful dynamics showcase for hifi systems with midrange control and a low noise floor.
