"Symptoms," by Atlas Genius

If you're sweaty, feeling clammy, perhaps a little nauseous, and just ate month old seafood then you're probably showing symptoms of food poisoning. You should probably find a bathroom. Maybe take some Tums or something. Hey, don't look at me like that - I'm no doctor.

On the other hand, if you're feeling chipper and keen and love good bass and acoustic guitar, then you probably just have good taste in music. The first of this week's two free tracks - released Feb. 19th to the iTunes Store - is a bass-ridden, electric piece by Atlas Genius. This indie rock band hails from South Australia and is made up of the three brothers Keith, Michael and Steven Jeffery pictured to the right, and their keyboardist Darren Sell. They released their first hit single, "Trojans," back in 2011 and it has since gained a lot of traction on Sirius XM.

I tell you what, folks, I love free music, but after researching and listening to that single, I enjoyed it so much that I actually made an iTunes purchase (gasp)! Click the link above and jam to that tune.

But of course, we move to the main dish, the topic at hand: the freebie. Off of their first, full album, When It Was Now, released this Tuesday, these geniuses have put up their track "Symptoms" for free download.
