This blog is born of a New Year's resolution challenging myself to write every day. My goal is to regularly update this space with short music reviews—mainly songs, as that seems most manageable, but hopefully some albums as well—in order to exercise my skills of artistic critique (and perhaps expand my own sonic horizons in the process).

"Bring Out the Bottles" Redfoo
Redfoo rings in the new year with his first single sans fellow LMFAO-er Sky Blu (the duo announced a hiatus in September), but it feels like nothing has changed: The 37-year-old eternal frat boy is still popping champagne, scoping out fly girls and and giving it up for "party rock" at every opportunity. That's about all there is to the self-produced "Bring Out the Bottles," which is just as flagrantly irksome as anything Redfoo did as a member of his former group. But this ugly mishmash of techno synths, dubstep bass and Auto-Tune has the easily regurgitated chorus it needs—just shout "Bring out the bottles!" a couple more times—to become pop radio and college parties' favorite douche anthem of 2013. Bring on the torture. C-
