Metal band Inferi formed in 2006 and has released three intense metal albums, with a fourth on the horizon for 2017. The Path of Apotheosis was released in 2014 and has everything you’d hope for with an album cover depicting a bladed angel fighting a trident-wielding demon – double bass drum as far as the […]
Zac Farro is likely most well known for being the drummer of Paramore until 2010 and then rejoining again in 2017. Fortunately, that’s not all he’s known for. His solo project HALFNOISE released an album in Sept 2016 and a brand new EP entitled The Velvet Face was just released in March 2017. You can hear […]
Come for the band name PISSCOFFIN, stay for the lo-fi big riff rock songs. Gotta love a band that tags themselves “intolerableâ€, “putrid†and “sickening†while still keeping some melody and catchiness gurgling under the surface.
You’re forgiven if you’ve never heard of the Nashville band Orchid. They released one EP in 2014 with a somewhat 90′s / Letter To Cleo vibe and haven’t done much since. They’ve just released a new single for a track called “Wilder†that serves as a curious peek at what may be coming next from the […]
Whatever circumstances led to weirdo collective Nuclear Bubble Wrap recording two They Might Be Giant covers is unknown to me but they are, clearly, huge fans as they selected two deep b-sides to pay homage to. Even if you’re no TMBG fan, it’s a nice introduction to the bands vibe. That doesn’t do it for […]
Skyway Man recently did a short stint of touring to help make the release of his debut album, Seen Comin’ From a Mighty Eye, officially official. During his time out and about he stopped in the Spaceworks Session space in NYC with his full band and recorded this version of “We Both Have Nothing to Fear†[…]
Thanks to the ease of sharing online, it’s become less rare these days to get a glimpse into an artists creative output but it’s still uncommon that the quality markedly improves over time. Such is not the case with the small doses of bedroom pop released by Bravemaker over the past few months. His songwriting, […]
A few months back, Coupler performed a live score to the 1925 silent film, “Our Heavenly Bodies.†Since that time they’ve decided to take the show on the road and screen the film at different venues and perform their score alongside it. The film is a masterwork from German director Hanns Walter Kornblum, filled with entrancing special […]
Gnarwhal “Marathon Ripper†Great to see some Nashville representation over on The AV Club with the announcement of the forthcoming Gnarwhal album, Crucial, out May 12. The first track is available for streaming and it’s a Lightning Bolt-esque doozie of gnarled guitars and start-stop energy. If their aim was to overwhelm, they succeeded.
Two things worth noting about today, March 20th. First, it’s the Vernal Equinox. That’s the time of year when the sun is directly over the celestial equator, marking the changing of seasons (for those of us in the US, this means Spring is here). Secondly, it’s the day of the official debut of “AEIOU†from The […]
Every installment of Chris Crofton’s Advice King over on The Cream is gold. The video episodes up on YouTube are also well worth a watch but this latest episode - “Priced Out of East Nashville†– is damn near perfection. Crofton’s skewering of “New Nashville†and the “Sociopath Makeovers†that it’s experiencing is depressingly accurate. (Source: https://www.youtube.com/)
Volume 84 Download MP3 / Stream Podcast / Subscribe Let’s call it fundamentals. A WOTT podcast should consist of a variety of music showcasing the Nashville local music scene but keep it under the 40 minute mark. This volume includes a heavy dose of indie rock, keyboard pop, grunge rock, traditional country and desert psych […]
