Vomitface Sign to Help Yourself Records

vomitfaceI’m definitely intrigued with the new singing that’s just joined up with Help Yourself Records, Vomitface. There’s something about their sound, borrowing from some of the exploration Sonic Youth used, whilst taking on this sludgy guitar tone. I think perhaps the one thing I miss from this new single is a sort of volume explosion, perhaps some erraticism, but it’s a solid tune, nonetheless. This song appears on Hooray for Me, which comes out on August 26th. It’s in the vein of almost-spastic art rock, should that be your thing.

Loving This New Ghost Camp Song

unnamed (2)New Brunswick based band Ghost Camp have given my my favorite song of the last few weeks or so with this new track “Ganymede”. It’s hard for me to peg down any solid comparisons or adjectives here with such a unique enticing sound. Maybe a bit like washed out Joy Division with a really sweet keyboard/organ helping to create a truly memorable pop song. Haven’t heard anything this creative in awhile.

This single is available for purchase on bandcamp right now and will appear on an album coming out this june on Third Floor Tapes.

Another Summer Tune From Echo Courts

unnamedMaybe you’ve heard this from me over the last couple of weeks? Summer playlist go. Here’s yet another song called “Set Me Free” from North Carolina based Echo Courts sure to reach the top of your summer playlist. It’s bright, it’s sunny and I don’t see anyone denying the good vibes coming through here.

Echo Courts will drop In The Garden on August 19th via Negative Fun Records.

The Fireworks Strike Again!

unnamed-46Back in 2015, and probably before that, we became enamored with London/Brighton based band, The Fireworks, and their debut album,Switch Me On,which was all parts unabashedly fuzzy energy, jam packed into an album. Today, I’m quite pleased to share a new track from the band which is taken from an upcoming EP, Black and Blue,which the band will be releasing shortly on July 15th. The track is called “All The Time” and from the moment you press play, you know you’re getting into something special. The drums sound off like a countdown before those vocals and guitars kick in, giving the whole thing a 90s alt feel, but then as the track takes off, this genre is met with dueling vocals and snarling guitars that turn things into an even darker modern punk track. Take a listen and then go preorder that beautiful blue vinyl EP from ATH faves Shelflife Records…or else you’ll be missing out big time.

Throwback Rock From Blowout

unnamedI don’t know about everyone else, but I’m struggling to make it through what has turned into a longer week than it needed to be. My spirits are lifted a bit though as I listen to this new single “Green Couch” from Portland based pop group Blowout. This one is seriously reminding me of my days with ATX based group Cruiserweight with the strong female vocals and pop punk sounding music driving the song. I’ve long been a fan of music like this and you can consider me a fan of this song.

Blowout will drop No Beer, No Dad on August 5th via Lauren Records.

Add Some Noise To Your Day With Lazy Legs

12322715_920387561411444_3099514226370434551_oI’m all about finding a track of the day that begs to be turned up at full volume and then getting in my car to go to work and blasting said tune to its proper level of sound. Today’s tune that begs you to turn it up loud is called “Open” from Lazy Legs, who hail from Chicago. This track is a full on shredder, perfectly noisy and raucous, bringing you just enough lo fi fuzz on the guitars while the percussion rages awayunder it all with crashing cymbals.

Lazy Legs’ debut album, Visiondeath, will be out July 15th and you can preorder it here through their band camp page. There you can also hear another great single from the band called “Sparks.” Blast through your Wednesdaywith the band.

Ghost Wave Brings You a Light Psychedelic Jam

11146495_10153285912809496_8047713030380912306_nGhost Wave are a two piece out of Auckland who are making psych rock that will have you jamming hard. They released this track, “All U Do is Kill” a short while back, but we somehow missed it, so it’s pertinent that I share it with you. I’m loving the way this track unwinds as it goes, with psych synths streaming in and out of the mix while the vocals are fuzzy and falsetto, adding a breezy feel to the otherwise grungey and gritty funk-rock. Take a listen and watch out for the impending music video for this song, which should be out sometime soon.

Local Love: Wildfires Share New Shoegazey Single

wildfiresATX’s very own Wildfires have got a new single out today that is well worth your time. The track, called “The Lame,” is available for you to download below, and it features everything we loved about the band when they released their last single, “Canelo” about a month ago. It’s got this pleasing shoe-gaze esque sound to it from the start when the guitars jangle in to the song. Later on, you get this laid back break down from the group that will have you returning again and again to the song. Take a listen, enjoy, and then look out for their upcoming release,Aguas Frescas Pt. II, which is out August 26th.

And Now For Something Different: Kllo

unnamed-45We here at ATH have a type, and we typically post music that follows along those lines. So when I heard this new track from Kllo, I was taken aback at how much it roped me in. “Walls to Build,” the single below, is a electronic jam with heavy R&B influences that will bust its way into your cold dead indie rock heart with its cool, simmering vibes. Kllo are a two piece out of Melbourne, and they’re on the cusp of releasing a new EP calledWell Worn, and it’ll be out August 5th via Ghostly International. Take a listen and if you’re digging up the simplistic, yet elegant jam, preorder that EP here.

Slacker Rock From Gap Dream

unnamed (1)Wasn’t I just saying something this morning about how impressive Burger Records has become with picking up new talent and sharing their music with the world? Well they are at it again in a short span of a few hours with this new single and album from previously ATH approved band Gap Dream. The tune is a meandering bit of slacker style indie rock music with an entrancing little guitar diddy carried on throughout the song. Carry on dude.

New album This is Gap Dream will be out on July 22nd via Burger Records.
