That’s right, IT’S BACK! The Music Monday column fell away back in 2014, but my husband was watching videos from The Black Queen, and it occurred to me it’d be fun to bring the column back. Maybe not WEEKLY… I have SEKRIT PROJECTS I’m working on (stay tuned for an announcement on WEDNESDAY!), but every once in a while? I thought it’d be fun.

So without further adieu, take a listen to “Ice to Never” by The Black Queen. The voice you’re hearing is Greg Puciato, who is also the leader singer of Dillinger Escape Plan (one of my favorite band names ever, but Dillinger’s music, while complex and intricate, is an acquired taste) and the supergroup Killer Be Killed. The Black Queen is far more accessible than his heavier stuff, and quite frankly, far more addicting. There have been times when I’ve put “Ice to Never” on repeat for hours, and it’s just one of many great songs on the album.

The video is delightfully retro-eighties, but as always, this column isn’t about the video, it’s about the music. So enjoy.

Like it? Love it? Hate it? Sound off below!

Reminder: Music Monday is about the music, not the videos. Videos are just the medium I’m using to share the music, and some videos aren’t actually videos at all. Enjoy the songs, but if YouTube forces you to watch some sort of advertisement before you can get to the music, please be patient.
