Last Week’s Jams, Today (4.18 – 4.22)

Leave a comment

Lot’s of really great stuff last week, so we’re here, as we always are, revisiting our coverage from last week, that way you can catch up…or at least have a sweet playlist to enjoy. Some cool new stuff last week from perennial favorites like Flasher and Say Sue Me, plus excellent news that there’s a new CLAMM record on the way. Plus, I hadn’t been to a traveling show, aside from SXSW, so I was stoked to get out of the house and catch Dummy absolutely rip over at Hotel Vegas, so I threw in a nice little jam from the band’s Mandatory Enjoyment. It’s Monday; here’s tunes you might have missed.

Films on Song Share Still I Try

There are some bands that just get you; they write songs that seem perfectly penned for your tastes; Films on Song is one such band…at least with this brand new single. It hangs on the cusp of post-punk stylings; you can easily hear the band on the fence about whether they should jump off and go into the shoegaze realm. But, they hold back, taking those ringing guitar strokes and bending them around the vocal melodies; it all feels heavy, like they’re carrying the burden of the world on their shoulders and trying to fill it with light. You’ll find this tune on the Sonatine EP, a split EP with their friend Work Wear.

Films On Song Share New Single

Feel like its been a hot minute since I’ve caught on to some really solid indiepop vibes, so when I got this tune from Films on Song it kind of made me swoon a bit. It has all the traditional elements I pine for, like jangling guitars walking a tightrope between angular and dreamy. Of course, the vocals have this baritone delivery and the percussion gives the song its marching orders, steadying the pace and propelling the tune forward. As of right now, no official words on a release or anything of that sort, but a good song is a good song, so get after it below.
