Mythical Motors Offer Up New Single

Leave a comment

There’s a massive catalog of music coming from Mythical Motors, though it feels like its super easy to indulge when the project releases a great new single, like “Replacement City.” When the guitars rode into the show here, there was this satisfying vibrancy, like I was playing in a ball pit as melody rained down. Then the vocals kick in, embracing this almost arena power rock vibe, though they hide in a bit of obscurity, always maintaining their earnestness. It all circles back, then the latter half rushes forward forcefully, almost hitting you in the face with those big old pop hooks. You definitely can’t go wrong with this jam today!

The Sprouts Release Debut Single

Leave a comment

You need look no further than the band members of The Sprouts to know I’m going to be on board; you’ve got folks from Dippers (Thigh Master), Permits and Chook Race, all rocking and rolling as a brand new animal. The lot all gathered in Melbourne to bang out a collection of songs set to hit at the end of March, so let’s check this sample. You get churning guitar notes, not quite rocking the jangle, but offering up this sort of Aussie swing that certainly excites. Multiple voices overlap throughout to remind us of the joint affair…and the power of singing with your best mates. Then we get the added bonus of a fiery little solo guitar riff to close out the track in fashion. Sign me up as a fan! Eat Your Greens is out on March 24th via Tenth Court.

Jonathan Bree Announces Pre-Code Hollywood

Leave a comment

I feel like I’ve been riding solo on the Jonathan Bree train for a long while now, but maybe now that the New Zealand artist has caught the ear of Nile Rodgers (who plays and produces on this track!), maybe the rest of the States will get in on the vibe. News came our way yesterday that there’s a new full-length coming our way, and the title track accompanied said announcement. Bree’s voice still comes off like the coolest crooner you ever did see, but there’s a nice bit of sheen to the song this go round. It feels as if this has gone full on into a sort of disco-club, albeit run though the orchestral divination of Jonathan and his work. I just can’t get enough, so I’m stoked to hear the whole of Pre-Code Hollywood, out in April via Lil Chief Records.

Brock Pytel Drops Brand New Single

One comment

You might recognize Brock Pytel‘s name as the singing man behind the kit for the Doughboys, but now the songwriter’s out on his own dropping new jams. I’m jamming this new single, which feels like it almost takes on a classic Bob Pollard vocal approach, particularly when it gets to the chorus where Pytel seems to curl the faintest hint of melody into his matter-of-fact delivery. Musically, you get a bit of that power-pop sound, albeit one envisioned with a set of 90s glasses on your head; there’s also plenty of banging noise to, in case you were worried Brock might indulge in the underlying sweetness. Looking forward to hear more from the ex-Doughboys singer.
