Smoothly skating into our 5th episode of WTD radio (courtesy of the rad fellows at Indie-Verse) I put together a quick list of everything that I’ve been listening to for the past week. New tracks from Wild Harem and Harlem (both out of Austin, I might add), Wetdog, and Americans in France. For good measure I’ve peppered in some classic favorites of mine. I know you’re probably missing the silky smooth linguistics of Ryan, but he will be back next week. I promise. To get thrown into our regular rotation send all tracks to weeklytapedeck@gmail.com and we’ll give it a listen. Click HERE to listen. Hit the jump for mp3s and tracklist.

From the womb of bands like the Slits, the Raincoats and X-Ray Spex (favorites of Nate Tapedeck’s) arises modern day post-punk bands like Wetdog; covered in afterbirth and ready to spit in someone’s face. But honestly this band rejuvenates female lead post-punk with a modern flair. After putting out a series of 7-inches and one full-length, the band is prepped to release their new record in just a few days (Nov. 30) titled Frauhaus! and out on Angular Recording Corporation. You can pre-order the CD or the “heavy weight transparent yellow vinyl” here.
