New Music From They Might Be Giants

tmbg2They Might be Giants have always been a fun band who write solid pop songs that always make a home inside your head.  This new tune “I’m a Paleontologist” is no different eventhough it is written mostly for the kiddies.  You can check out more new child oriented songs on the band’s upcoming 14th studio album and 4th kid’s album Here Comes Sciene.

From The Closet: The Rise

One comment

theriseShutdown this assembly line quality!  Oh how we love and miss old Austin band The Rise. During the fall of The Refused, we needed something to come destroy the Austin music scene as a whole.  The Rise were the band that did it, infusing their electronic beats with a touch of hardcore and rioting live shows.  While on the scene, they quickly built a solid following here in town, and gaining fans all over the world. Unfortunately, real life got in the way, and the group disbanded, with bassist Danny being the only one going on to make musical waves as a member of Trail of Dead. Also, if it was you that stole their equipment long ago, please return it. We miss you The Rise, and would gladly be willing to put together your reunion show.

We’ve been getting more and more into local band Moth! Fight! recently and we’re thinking you might enjoy catching one of their awesome live sets at The Independent on Wednesday.  Opening support for this one is provided by Noise Revival Orchestra and Follow that Bird.  Should be a fun night of local music!

Local shows are solid this week and Mohawk on Wednesday night is a great option to check out some of that local talent.  The lineup includes pop hit makers Loxsly, Birdlips and fairly new locals Ideal Soul Mart.  The show is also in celebration of Ideal Soul Mart’s debut LP which can be streamed in it’s entirety over on the band’s new bandcamp page.

New Music From Daniel Johnston

daniel-johnstonAustin icon Daniel Johnston is gearing up to release his first new material in quite some time and this time he’s had some help from friends in high places.  This new single “Freedom” will appear on upcoming album Is and Always Was due out October 6th via High Wire Music.  Johnston apparently worked closely with producer/musician Jason Falkner on the project and the outcome is some of the fullest and most well produced material we’ve ever heard from the singer/songwriter.
