E-JAIL’s debut is one of those perfect storms of DIY production, keyboard pop songs and just the right amount of goofy weirdness. I mean, the name alone is endearing enough but, fortunately, there are legitimately enjoyable songs like “France in a Thong†to back it up. The affected vocals may strike some as offputting but, for […]
Releasing an album can be a time consuming endeavor. Often, bands seek out management, touring experience, label partnerships and general “buzz†before they take the deep dive into unleashing their opus of music. It can be a frustrating and painfully lengthy undertaking, particularly when the album is finished. There’s been rumblings of a *repeat repeat album […]
Stumbled upon Utah transplant Jamie Timm’s project Microwave Mountain the other day and have become entranced by the slightly oddball songs. Created entirely “using a 2 track loop pedal, one bass, one microphone, a free app, and a few guitars†the album captures that slightly goofy spirit of someone having fun making music. “Rainbow Twist†could easily have […]
There’s something comfortably immersive about properly executed shoegaze that really gets me. This 2016 EP from Tape Deck Mountain is filled with languid vocals backed by massive guitars, driving bass and just the right amount of feedback and squelches to make for a proper wall of sound. Best listened to at full volume in a […]

Volume 84 Download MP3 / Stream Podcast / Subscribe Let’s call it fundamentals.

Over the long weekend I started to make a serious effort to clean out my Tumblr Inbox – which I did not even realize was a thing. In doing so, I came across a lot of excellent submissions – the self-titled EP from Zobrodome being one of them. There is a LOT of manic energy […]
Admittedly, “Less Than a Minute” speedy punk songs are not for everyone. That being said, the kind of wild abandon and ferocious energy that comes with these songs has an undeniable appeal. Listening to this you can easily imagine a crowd of onlookers being whipped into a frenzy, I’d say that’s doing something right.
