VEGA @ Beauty Bar 4/24

Leave a comment

april24We ran a SXSW watchlist on Alan Palomo’s new project VEGA, but then missed the band amidst the craziness that is SXSW week.  Lucky for you and me, Beauty Bar is having a VEGA EP listening party along with a live set by the band on Friday night.  Local DJ Prince Klassen will be spinning in-between sets and locals Doneski will provide opening entertainment.  This event is totally free and doors open at 8pm.  This will be a dance party you won’t want to miss.

New Tunes from Lewis & Clarke

Leave a comment

lewis Sometimes you can’t go wrong with a quiet tune that reminds you of sitting creek-side with your favorite companion, and that’s just what Lewis & Clarke provide. The featured track comes on the brink of a new EP.  Listen carefully, as the song is so quiet you  might miss it if you don’t pay attention.  For more tunes check out the group’s Blasts of Holy Birth; here is “Petrified Forest.”

New Tunes from Blank Dogs

One comment

blankdogsBlank Dogs has steadily released lo-fi bedroom recordings for the past couple of years, garnering interest from fans and bloggers alike. As he prepares for the release of Under and Under, which is set to come out on In the Red, we get a hint of what the new album will sound like. This track is a little bit more straight forward, though still coated in fuzz and mystery, like the man himself.

New Pink Mountaintops

Leave a comment

pinkmountaintopsphotoThis may be a bit sad bastard for some of you, but I think this is a nice little jam that goes well with the change of the season.  Mastermind of Pink Mountaintops, Stephen McBean, is most widely known as the front man for Canadian powerhouse Black Mountain.  Call it a side project if you want, the “band” has a new album hitting stores on May 5th via JagJaguwar called Outside Love.  Breezy little single “While We Were Dreaming” is bellow for your enjoyment.

New Tunes from Shugo Tokumaru

Leave a comment

shugOkay, admittedly I have no idea what on Earth Shugo Tokumaru is singing about, but I do know that every time he creates his grandiose gems I fall in love.  Shugo has a new EP coming out, though you’ll probably need a translator to get your hands on it.  But, you can check out this cool site to listen to more tracks.  Here is “Rum Hee.”

New Tunes from Sonic Youth

Leave a comment

soniceNews has slowly been drifiting about the newest Sonic Youth release, The Eternal. Matador Records even gave us a little bit of a teaser by throwing out some 7″s on Record Store Day featuring the band so as to whet your appetite.  Now, to further your interest, we have the first complete single, with Kim manning the wheel here.  If you ask me, this is a good start. Let’s hope it all sounds this good on June 9th, the album release date.

wye_oak-warningBaltimore two piece Wye Oak just dropped a new single that we’ve been spinning around the ATH offices over the last few days.  The new track will appear on upcoming album The Knot due out July 21st on Merge.  What do you think of the new material?

New Pixies Album

Leave a comment

pixies2_wideweb__470x3460Okay, so we’re not completely sure about all of this, but as of this point, it seems pretty legit.  Last night, a few sites showed this site , which seems to indicate that a new album, titled Minotaur, will be released by the band at some point this summer.  You can pre-order starting June 15th.  But, we have no news on singles or who is going to release it, although the majority of Pixies releases came our way via 4AD. I’m not going to lie; I’m a wee bit excited here.
