Our friends at the Secretly Group are assembling a 100-track compilation to benefit a variety of organizations involved in the resistance against the oppressive political regime in the U.S. Today, for Day 89, Terry Allen has premiered “Stroll,” an appropriately apocalyptic (and discomfitingly calm) solo song recorded during the Bottom of the World sessions, and the first new music Terry has released since 2013. “Screaming from zombie horror movies … fades.”
If you require a mind-expanding tonic to our national spell of ignorant, truculent insanity, the new Mind Over Mirrors album Undying Color is available today in your favorite record shops and online merchants, digital and physical alike.
