Don Goblin Drop Extra Bitters EP
Denver’s Don Goblin swung for the fences with this new Extra Bitters EP, but there’s one EP that I can’t stop playing, thus I had to get in your ears before I forget to spread the good work. Explaining this tune is a touch troubling, as they seamlessly move between a solid indie rock vibe and an ode to the jangling pop that I consistently dive into every day. When the tune opens, you expect this sharp and smoothed melodic focus from the vocals…and to a degree, sure, but they switch it up with subtle nod to the Dead’s “Touch of Grey,” or at least that’s how I hear it.

Pretty solid wee of new music last week, and we got to as much as our time allowed. We even managed to start getting some of our SXSW coverage together, as the festival is somehow just over the horizon; RayRay got an interview up with Population II you should check out. We even got back on some album stream coverage, making sure to have the homies in Constant Follower and Daily Worker up there. We continue as the one-site hype machine for Sharp Pins Radio DDR reissue, but there some of my favorite acts also returned with their own new jams to grab us, like Dumb Things and Jetstream Pony. I even jumped on the Sports Team train with their latest single. Get into it below.
It’s an interesting Friday of album releases, with some stark contrasts over here at ATH. We’ve got some heavy vibes from the new Men record, right along some contemplative pop from Andy Bell, a bit of pastoral folk from Constant Follower…then some faves like Austin’s Daily Worker mixed up in the middle. Think you’ll find some joy by clicking play on any number of the great records hanging down below.
