ATX Premiere: Semihelix Share Slower Pace

Austin based outfit Semihelix came onto our radar in 2021 with the release of their album of the year worthy debut LP Recoil. Since then, we’ve been anxiously awaiting new tunes from the band and today is finally the day! For your listening pleasure is this new tune called “Slower Pace” which certainly doesn’t adhere to the song title with its short 1.5 minutes of bright, energy filled jangle pop. A true gem in the Austin scene.

This song is part of an upcoming EP due out sometime later this Fall. More info coming soon.

 

Vacation All I Ever Wanted

The ATH team is taking advantage of the holiday week and shutting down for vacation, rest and relaxation. Not to fret, we’ll be back next week with more fresh tunes and musical guidance. While you anxiously await our return, check out the Friday album streams post or top songs from the week prior. Or maybe give a listen to the latest single from Montreal based Private Lives cause ya know, ‘Merica and whatnot. Be safe and smart.

New Single & Video From Tele Novella

Well sometimes we slip and miss things from time to time as we wade through the mass amount of submissions and Olivia Rodrigo emails. Though we may have slipped and are a tad late on this news, we will always find time to boost our own and promote old local friends. Once such local indie legend are our pals in Tele Novella who just released this stunning new single “Hard-Hearted Way” with an accompanying, retro grade video. This band continues to pump out a staggering catalog of delightful music.

This track comes with an announcement of a new album called Poet’s Tooth coming out on October 6th via Kill Rock Stars. Pre-orders are live now.

Oddwood DJ Set & Vinyl Market

Deals will be made, fun will be had!

Subtle Beauty From Mise En Scene

Winnipeg is home to the Jets, Neil Young, and my new favorite band from the city, Mise en Scene. Formed while studying art together in the city, BFFs Stef and Jodi formed the band over mutual musical tastes and have ignited a spark with unique sounds and vibes. For a taste of the duos sound, hit up this new song “Beautiful People” and left yourself fall into the dreamy tune as it flows and slowly builds throughout.

This is part of a new EP entitled Reality Bites which is available to purchase now via Light Organ Records.

Slow Pulp Return With A Hit

Chicago based indie starlets Slow Pulp surely know how to write a hit and they’ve once again delivered with this new single “Slugs.” The song offers so much lightness with a quiet restraint as things sort of bubble underneath with hints of distorted guitar and a subtle vocal delivery. You’ll also get a fancy road trip video to follow along with as you fall into the track.

This tune will appear on the new Slow Pulp album, Yard, which is due out September 29th via ANTI-. Pre-orders are live now.

One More From Shady Bug

We in the ATH offices have a few favorites for album of the season and Shady Bug’s upcoming joint What’s the Use? is surely in contention. Already we’ve shared the stunner, “Zero Expectations,” and now the band are treating us to another preview with this jam “Favor.” Without offering too much of an opinion or comparisons, I’ll just say that if you haven’t check out this band and their new material yet, well what are you even doing. Get on it.

Shady Bug will release What’s the Use? on June 30th via Exploding in Sound.

Cruise With Lost Cousins

Well summer is officially here and real proud of itself which always gives me an inclination to hit the road and drive with the windows down (but also with the AC on of course). Luckily I have Toronto based group Lost Cousins to help me along my way with this new single “Dreamer.” It has an incredibly relaxed, atmospheric take on dream rock and should inspire some late night cruises as you hit the open road. Many of us will be trekking out on adventures next week and this should be the perfect tune to take along with you.

Sheer Stunner From Grimson

Berlin based artist Aiden Berglund has a new album coming out in September under his recording moniker Grimson and I think it might just be one of my favorites of the year. Without saying too much more and spoiling the surprise, I suggest you check out this new single “Leave it Like You Found It” and see for yourself why I am so hyped on this new music. It has this very delicate and intimate beginning which lures you in with its beauty but then the song opens up with a jolt of energy to give it this highly engaging and inviting feel. Truly a lovely piece of songwriting.

The aforementioned new album entitled Climbing Up the Chimney is due out on September 1st.
