The 80th track on our free download compilation “Face The Beat: Session 4” (featuring 92 tracks) is by the excellent Nashville, TN based female-fronted industrial synthpop act The Sweetest Condition.

The Sweetest Condition is a female-fronted industrial synthpop band, featuring Leslie I. Benson (lyrics + vocals) and Jason Reed Milner (music + synths + guitars). After releasing their five-song EP, “Truth & Light”, in April 2013, the duo moved from Indianapolis, Indiana, to Nashville, Tennessee, where they teamed up with sound engineer Joel Lauver of Burning Bridge Recordings to produce their debut full-length album, “Edge of the World”, which was released on August 28, 2015. A second full-length album. Their latest album “We Defy Oblivion” was released in November 2016 and it’s from that very album that the band decided to offer us the track “Burn This City”.

You can find the project back on Facebook, make sure to check it out!

Why we ask

Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.
