The official music video for DEDSA’s “Lighter Click†has a visual aesthetic that you would typically associate with thrashing metal bands obsessed with wizards, creatures and fantasy tropes of all sorts. Surprisingly, the song is a dance-y number with a slow build into a chaotic explosion of energy. I’m honestly blown away by the style of […]
Welcome to 2018! While an astronomer might be quick to point out that there is nothing astronomically significant about January 1st, it works quite well as a time to refresh and begin again. A Fresh Start if you will. We’re hurdling into the new year by posting another 25 minutes of great local music.
There’s only three days left until official Christmas so the shelf life on this song is slim. Listen to Joseph Bradshaw and Nikki Lane duet on this delightful diddy about fucking up around the holidays.
Many artists toil and rack their brains trying to write the perfect song but not Waterfall Wash; they openly admit “Do You Know When It’s Christmas†was “written in 25 minutes.†And you know what? Not half bad for a song written in under a half hour!Â
As the year winds down now is the perfect time to remind you of a few facts about *repeat repeat: They put on a scorching live show. They released the second full-length record, Floral Canyon, on Dangerbird Records in 2017 and it’s excellent. Do Listen. They are a funny bunch. That last point is best […]
Back in August we shared the first single from Ben Harper’s new project, Smart Objects, “The Autumn Man.†Hopefully it’s been in your rotation since that time because it’s a damn fine piece of pop work. Since that time, the band has been releasing a series of short films that, once stitched together, serve as the […]
2018 is really gearing up to be a great year of new releases. Here’s some more evidence of that factual statement: Rales just released the first track off their forthcoming album, Air Lift. We’ll have to wait until January 12th of next year to hear the whole thing but if “Windsor Pl†is any indication of what’s […]
Woodsplitter, the genre hopping side project of All Them Witches Ben McLeod, has another new instrumental album to indulge in. Like the previously released Journey Into Krautrock and Egyptian Overlord before that, McLeod picks a flavor and dives in deep, embracing the tropes of a particular style but always with his own enjoyable twist. May […]
I’m all for a maudlin, introspective, Christmas tune but sometimes it’s nice to get an infusion of upbeat pop-rock for the holiday season. Enter Two Chalfonts cover of Material Issue’s “Merry Christmas Will Do†– a seemingly happy song cut with melancholy lyrics if you’re paying attention. Two Chalfonts is John from The Lee’s of Memory […]
Start your weekend off right with the blazing new track “Eye Sinks†from one of Murfreesboro’s finest psych rock bands, Mouth Reader. I can only hope this means a full-length lies in wait for us in 2018.
Great to see Tristen keeping with her holiday tradition of releasing a new song in December. This years offering, “Crying on Christmas Dayâ€, is a somber number but well suited for a time of year where we reflect. This pushes melancholy to its limits, in the most pleasingly moving of ways. All purchases of the track […]
December is, historically, a time for reflecting on the year’s previous releases – a worthy practice if ever there was one. However, there’s still plenty of great recent releases that haven’t been highlighted on our show and that just simply will not stand. If the WOTT Music podcast is a time capsule of the great […]
