Randcamp: New Year's Day

Searching Bandcamp for songs called "New Year's Day" throws up a lot of execrable rubbish, not all of which are cover versions of Bono's boys. But here's three that aren't terrible.

Ken Nilsen is a singer songwriter from the US who, from the sounds of this, mostly just wants to play his guitar. This song is two years old today.

Ladyshark are a New York punk 3-piece girl-band. This starts okay and has interesting short-story-esque lyrics...

This is probably my favourite of the three, by the challengingly-named Cancer Kittens. Now eight years old, this is unlikely to lift any low moods.

This might be the start of a new series (Randcamp, maybe?) in which I stick random search terms into Bandcamp and report the best (or worst) findings, who knows? But for now, which (if any) of these three do you like?
