I’m not sure I’m quite eloquent enough to give the latest from Jupiter Is My Hard Drive a proper review. The album blends a number of genres and styles into an enjoyable package that starts off with a dark, foreboding vibe and ends up somewhere rather optimistic. The influences range from The Cure and Depeche […]
Album art goes a long way when you’re competing with, literally, thousands of other things to listen to. The doodled ghost in a sea of pink that adorns this single from Phoul is an excellent representation of the lo-fi bedroom pop within.Â
A preview track from Promised Land Sound’s forthcoming full-length For Use and Delight. A damn fine track echo’ing the best of the 70′s era languid rockers or, if you’re feeling more contemporary, something akin to Dr. Dog. Very much looking forward to more of this.
There’s something about You Are A Hologram that brings the works of The Helio Sequence or Rogue Wave to mind. Not directly mind you but an essence of similar vocal styles and upbeat rising songs with a sharp melancholy edge. The Reprise version of “All The Same†is ready for the final dramatic scene of an […]
I’m a bit baffled by how I haven’t mentioned this before now but The Whole Fantastic World, an early 2000′s Nashville staple, recently posted a bunch of unreleased demos on their Bandcamp that I’m amazing were unreleased. I’m not even sure more work could be done with these songs. It’s a shame they weren’t released […]
All Them Witches - “Dirt Preacher†Preview the forthcoming All Them Witches album, Dying Surfer Meets His Maker, over on Brooklyn Vegan with the track “Dirt Preacher.†It is as desert psych rock as you would hope for. The album will be available October 30th.
Of all the new songs from Birdcloud’s forthcoming TETNIS EP we’ve heard so far, this one hits the hardest. The term “Tastefully Offensive†comes to mind. It’s crass, it’s amusing, it’s catchy and it’s not mean spirited. I can’t wait to hear crowds of people singing along. (Source: https://www.youtube.com/)
The MIDI fueled sounds of Murfreesboro’s Moshi Moshi will certainly not be for everyone but there’s a manic energy and overall doped out optimistic vibe to it that I can’t resist. I think I’m also a sucker for any artist that embraces the art of the ridiculous song title – i.e. “Gwen Used Me For […]
Have you ever been curious what Murfreesboro sounded like in 1998? Well, steer your ears towards the four song EP of House of Radar to get an idea of the creations being concocted. There’s really no better time for them to unearth these recordings as they actually sound like something a 2015 contemporary would create. […]
The Features – Special Place Been awhile since we heard from The Features, eh? Well, wait no longer! They’ve launched a Pledge Music campaign where you can pre-order the new album, Special Place. Get on it, you know it’s gonna be good.
When it comes to the experimental, noise metal circuit I’m fairly clueless. What I do know is that this insane wall of sound is really something to take note of. I can’t help but think it’s equal parts absurd and entirely immersive. Honestly, I’m as scared of this as I am intrigued.
The self-described label of Minimal Ambient Drone artist is no joke – listening to this song is a wash of sound akin to the lulling sounds of traffic or the ocean. But it’s also an undersell because there are some very active portions of the music, a place to focus. The prior EP, 01a, is similar […]
