PANGS is many things; sometimes they’re introspective dreamy electronic pop. Sometimes they’re abrasive electronic soundscapes. And sometimes they’re absolutely flagrant pop songs. The later is the case with “Do Better”, the latest from the outfit. It’s a club hit waiting for your closed eyes, waving arms and screaming singalong on that chorus. 

Happy to see Blank Range return after three years of quiet. The new EP has a decidedly alt-Americana vibe to it, fully embracing some of the bands previous country leanings but never fully letting go of their rock roots. Listening to “Gardens” feels like the band has gone full-in on the country vibe but that’s quickly undone with the passionate, decidedly non-country, cries of “Linger On.” 

In the same way that Dr. Dog walks the line between country, Americana and rock, Blank Range seems to have their footing by embracing that diversity.

It’s unclear if this track was just waiting to be released or if the band wrote it in a fury in the last week but “Teeth for Days” feel like an appropriate response to the Trump election. It’s an upbeat number that doesn’t exactly harp on the topic  but might provide a little catharsis as we’re coming down.

Get your Neil Young vibes on with this demo from Joe Pisapia. Given recent election events, it’s a fitting song.

Tomorrow is Election Day (doi) and John Davis is getting political with this 4-track recording courtesy of his High-Bias Operation. It’s a surprisingly upbeat number given the rallying cry for getting the fuck out of town after tomorrow’s results.

Loving this new “boom-bap beat tape” from Ducko McFli. If the first two tracks don’t grab you, stick with it and you’ll be hooked by the time “PK Ripper” hits!

Immerse yourself in the latest electro jam from Chill Witch. There are record scratches, foreboding synths and literal witch laughs.. and it all works.
