The second single from Bully’s forthcoming sophomore release, Losing, is now streaming over on the SubPop Youtube channel. “Runningâ€, like the first single “Feel the Sameâ€, is a grunge inspired, big guitar number – cut with vocalist Alicia Bognanno’s gravely screams. In my opinion, if you’re not a lyric person, you’re missing out on the best part […]
The second track from Jessica Lea Mayfield’s forthcoming album, Sorry Is Gone, is now available in the form of a cotton-candy colored world juxtaposed with a mournful Mayfield performance in the video for “Meadow.†The track is a heavy missive on distrust and loneliness but really ratchets it up at the end with some affected […]
The directorial style of Mike Kluge, aka MKAV, is the perfect pairing for JEFF the Brotherhood. In the official video for “Idiot†(off of Zone) there’s just the right balance of 80′s video effects, datamoshing, slit scan and color shifting psychedelia. It makes for some damn good GIFs.

First and foremost, I must proclaim my respect for any band that chooses to go with a wildly un-Google-able name like And the Boys. They like the name and discoverability be damned! Fortunately, these guys are just starting out and there’s plenty of time for the Search Engine Gods to properly associate their name with […]
If you’ve been paying attention, you know The By Gods have a new album coming out in October. We’ve heard two tracks from Move On already - “Rat in My House†and “Wait Up†– and they’ve been gracious enough to add another track for preview if you head over to their pre-order page. You won’t get the record […]
It’s practically impossible to keep up with the volume of releases from R. Stevie Moore. That’s just an accepted fact. In between his long playing releases of surprisingly brilliant pop music, he also releases quite a few very weird records. Lately, there’s been a slew of them worth checking out. One such release is Phoney, a […]
The debut single from Smart Objects has arrived in the form of “The Autumn Man.†If the vocals sound slightly familiar that’s because this is the latest from Benjamin A. Harper. His previous solo release, Get Thee Behind Me, his work in Magnolia Sons and his releases with The Comfies have more than prepared him for […]
Despite being released in 2015, I’d not heard of Boyscott until very recently. Better late than never as their debut album, Goose Bumps, is a delightful romp of pop songs undercut with just the right dose of melancholy vocals. There’s a great interview with frontman Scott Hermo over on Baewatch that’s worth a read through […]
The previous Anchor Thieves album, Monolith, was an enjoyable listen from a band confident in their sound. It was also an album that showed growth and change from the previous releases. The band continues in that streak of evolution with this peek into their next album with the track “Tickinburr.†They went as far as to tag […]
Excited to announce that we’re sponsoring a show featuring New Man, Field Days and Charlie & The Evil Mothers. Mark your calendars for Friday, Sept 8th, and join us at The 5 Spot for a night of highly enjoyable Nashville music.
Our sincerest condolences to everyone at Fond Object on the passing of founder Jeff Pettit. I only interacted with Jeff on a handful of occasions while browsing records but he was also incredibly nice, forthcoming and helpful; a fine example of the sort of people that you hope move to your city and make it a […]
It’s Eclipse Day! If you don’t have any plans on how to view the Total Solar Eclipse, maybe swing over to Third Man Records and watch the Weather Warlock summon the event with his weather machine? Or go to one of the many Eclipse Viewing Parties around town? There’s a ton of them, just be […]
