Get Up Kids Anounce New EP

February 15, 2010 RayRay One comment

After six long years of a drought in new Get Up Kids material, the Lawrence, KA band is finally releasing a new EP entitled Simple Sciene come April. The only information right now is that 4 songs will be included, CDs and vinyl will be self-released in limited quantities, and a download will be set up on itunes. All this information comes by way of a new blog post on the GUK myspace page. Here again is that new song the guys played on Daytrotter awhile back which may or may not be on this new EP.

Eisley Cover Stevie Nicks

February 15, 2010 RayRay 5 comments

Being from the Eastern side of Texas, I’ve followed Tyler, TX. band Eisley since they first got started many years ago. While the band has been relativley quiet in recent years, this new video/song covering the Stevie Nicks tune “Silver Springs” popped up on the internet last week. The song is more of a solo gig by primary Eisley songwriter Stacy Dupree along with Jeremy Larson, Brandon Goodwin, and Darren King (Mute Math) providing the music/recording. It’s a beautiful little diddy if I do say so myself. A video version of the tune can be found on the Eisley youtube site. Eisley will also be making their way to Austin for our SXSW festival in March.

New Music From Tallest Man On Earth

February 12, 2010 RayRay Leave a comment

This new track from Swedish folk singer, Tallest Man On Earth, has been floating around the internet over the last few days and we just had to get it on our site. This new jam “King of Spain” will appear on the upcoming album The Wild Hunt, due out April 13th on Dead Oceans. The track comes off sounding a bit like some old school Tweedy led Uncle Tupelo with vocals more similar to Dylan on helium. That’s good right?

New Tunes from Cats on Fire

February 11, 2010 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

So I was just listening to the Matinee Grand Prix, the stellar compilation from one of my favorite labels, Matinee Records, when I noticed something I didn’t notice on first listen. A new Cats on Fire tune! Their last record, Our Temperance Movement, was one of my favorites in 09′, so obviously stoked there is a new tune. Take a listen, and you’ll see why I love this little band from Finland.

New Tunes from Pale Sunday

February 10, 2010 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

In an effort to become the only member of ATH with a serious twee addiction, I bring you new tunes from the Brazilian group, Pale Sunday. This is the first new music we’ve gotten from the group since 2005’s Summertime. The warmth of the vocals in this tune, “Shooting Star,” make it perfect for this chilly winter day.

Stream New Lightspeed Champion LP

February 10, 2010 RayRay Leave a comment

A week prior to its slated U.S. release date, Lightspeed Champion is streaming his new album Life is Sweet! Nice to Meet You over on myspace. The new album is one of our most highly anticipated releases of the new year, and from first listen, it may live up to the billing. Latest single from the LP “Marlene” is featured below, which also just appeared on an EP of the same name out now on Domino Records. Check that one out on itunes if you aren’t into those physical relationships. Pre-orders of the sophomore LP out next week (already out now in the UK) can be found here.

New Music From Dr. Dog

February 9, 2010 RayRay One comment

One of our long time favorite bands Dr. Dog have returned in 2010 with a new album entitled Shame, Shame. Check out the new song “Shadow People” from Shame, Shame, which is slated for an April 6th release date. Sounds like they’ll be picking up right where they left off with Fate. I’m cool with that.
