Turns out we’ve missed another one.  Thanks to The National’s recent cover of a Perfume Genius song (Learning—a rather dark, but cathartic, ditty that you can listen to at bottom), we have finally found Perfume Genius, which is the nom de chanteur of Seattle-based solo artist Mike Hadreas.  Hadreas’ songs are filled with heart-on-sleeve assessments and invocations that are roundly resonating with us this Monday (natch).  Check out some examples below in these performances last year for La Blogotheque’s A Take Away Show.  Beautiful, but heavy material, as reflected in the artist’s face as he performs.  Perfect for your Monday.  We don’t like Mondays, can you tell?
