Have you ever been haunted by a song and found yourself playing and replaying the same song a dozen times to see if the lyrics match up with the music&#8217;s powerful first impression?  That&#8217;s what happened to me when I heard &#8220;How ya been feelin'&#8221;, a track from a forthcoming 7&#8243; from Austin&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/princetheband.bandcamp.com\/\">Prince<\/a>.  It has such a great combination of energy and sadness.  The lyrics are direct, but use imagery that evokes something more than the words.  The other recordings on the band&#8217;s Bandcamp page are pretty great as well.<\/p>\n<h2>Una B\u00e8stia Incontrolable and Iron Lung<\/h2>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"100%\" height=\"450\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/playlists\/45105764&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false&amp;visual=true\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Last week I saw Una B\u00e8stia Incontrolable and Iron Lung play and I enjoyed hearing two bands play interesting heavy music that&#8217;s still grounded in punk and hardcore idioms.
