Ex Void Share No Other Way

You’ve got to imagine a band featuring members of Joanna Gruesome is going to have a lot of pressure to live up to their former name, and this new single seems to be the one that cements Ex Void as their own powerful force. As the song unfolds, it offers up a relaxed bit of casual indie rock, light jangles, but mostly just a burning fuzz of guitar work. For me, it was the chorus that really hits home, as I love the way the vocals rise and fall in tone, crashing into you with an emphatic punch that burrows into your mind. They’ll be dropping their Bigger Than Before LP in our laps on March 25th via Don Giovanni Records.

My Idea Share New Single, Crutch

Having already won over fans with their various projects Lily Konigsberg and Nate Amos have joined forces to enchant us with their joint act, My Idea. Their latest single is an airy indie pop tune, floating with these relaxed guitar textures, allowing Lily’s voice to take the lead role, riding atop the mix like a cool Spring breeze. This tune, as the title suggests, illustrates the friendship between the two, relying upon one another as their lives suffered elsewhere, only to find a home in the album they’ve created. It seems like things have worked out for the benefit of the duo, and us, as we’ll get to hear CRY MFER on April 22nd via Hardly Art.
