I'll die riding in a red hearse.

It's a triple threat! "Red Hearse" by Red Hearse on the album, Red Hearse, is unusually catchy. It's basically synth-funk-pop-rock…simple enough? It's perfectly weird.
"I'll dive in it head first. I'll die riding in a red hearse."
It's only appropriate to pair this triple threat with a triple IPA. Triple IPAs are complex beers. They are bitter like the blatant lyrics of this song. But triple IPAs are also somehow often malty and sweet and always different from one another with flavors ranging from all sorts.

Whether you like beers this strong or not, drinking them can be an interesting experience for your tastebuds. Your mouth will turn into an adventure park bouncing from sweet, tangy, hoppy, syrupy, bitter, and then often citrusy or fruity. In most cases, the citrus flavor comes from the hops themselves.
"Wake up in the midnight…heavy heart hitting under red light. The last flowers, the first sight, first time I saw you, gave me half life…"
Many breweries find ways to make these beers even more pleasant to drink than your traditional IPA. For example, Renegade's Endpoint is one crazy beer! It has aromas of papaya and mango and it's pretty damn smooth with it's ranging flavors of malts and hops.
"…and you're the only one I really want now. You're the only one that make me slow down."
This beer from Denver is as fun to drink as it is to listen to "Red Hearse." The song bounces from genre to genre including a little-bit of distorted and grungy electronic music at the very end.

Enjoy the ride.

There's a picture on the wall of Kanye West.

"Freaking Out," the psychedelic pop-rock song by The Wrecks, gets pretty weird… "In the bathroom, on my back, there's a picture on the wall of Kanye West. He's staring at me; he's staring at me. I'm freaking out; I'm freaking out." …as weird as an IPA labeled with a tiger shooting rainbow-lasers out of his eyes. Elysian's Dayglow IPA pairs perfectly with the odd sounds The Wrecks bring us in this new single. "I'm on the lawn. It's almost 3:00. I look around; I look at her; she looks at me. She's suspicious; she's suspicious. I'm freaking out; I'm freaking out." The lyrics and the sounds of the keyboard will automatically have you thinking, "this is weird." And even more so if you listen to the guitar rift in the first second as you stare at your newly found Dayglow bottle. But then you take a sip. It's crisp, a little juicy, and oh my—is that pineapple? Yes, it is! Now your on to the cho...

Sometimes the only way out is as a carcass.

You're in the Mafia and you made a deal with the devil. You promised to follow through but you got caught. Now you're going to court and you can't bring up who you're working with. If you do, it's the end of you. "I bet my billionth bottom dollar on a hopeless case and now the devil on my shoulder has a knife to my face." Maybe it's time to talk to daddy. After all, he has connections. He can get you out of anything. But then again, if he helps you, you will pay. No, not with money; you're broke after paying your lawyer. You'll pay with something much more severe, most likely your life. "Sometimes the short end of the stick is the sharpest. Sometimes the only road to take is the darkest. Sometimes all you gotta say is 'Daddy, make it go away.' Sometimes the only way out is as a carcass." After talking to daddy, you find it's in your best interest to stay away from him and his workers. You go back to court and the police as...

I danced with the devil and I've got to say he's not so tough.

This blog focuses mostly on new songs less than a year old but an exception is being made for "Live from Hell" by Glowbug on the album Fantasma Del Tropico. It's an obscure alt-rock song with sounds of steel drums giving it that Caribbean island vibe. But that's not it. This song features Eddie Hermida, the screamo vocalist of the deathcore metal band, Suicide Silence. This is the first screamo song to be listed on this blog. "To all the heathens, demons...I have got a feeling we'd get along, so shout GIVE ME YOUR WORST...LOVE 'TIL IT HURTS!" This could very well be one of the softest screamo songs you've heard but it just works; it's catchy. The lyrics are pretty dark considering the island-enthused sounds too. "I DANCED WITH THE DEVIL AND I'VE GOT TO SAY he's not so tough." Of course a Caribbean-inspired song needs to be paired with a Caribbean-inspired beer. There may not be any year-round nationally-available beers to co...
