New Music from Discodeine

Last week I raved about my man crush on former Pulp frontman Jarvis Cocker, so I couldn’t resist running this track.  Sure, its not exactly what one thinks of with relation to JC, but his voice is so perfectly fitting to the electro work of Discodeine.  This is what all dance music should be like, if I made in my room on my laptop.  I’m just tossing this out there because Jarvis is one of the Guys I’d Go Gay For, so check out this song, and just chalk up another sweet tune that proves the sexual prowess of one of my favorite musicians.

Show Preview: The Strokes @ Stubbs (10/6)

Date 10/6/10
Location Stubbs
Doors 7pm
Tickets Sold Out Duh.

So the night has finally come and I’m sure a lot of you have already pissed your pants in anticipation for The Strokes show at Stubbs tonight.  From what I’m hearing, the rock veterans don’t even have an opener so make sure you get there early.  I personally didn’t feel like $60 was worth it on this one since I can see the band at ACL.  Honestly, does anyone ever remember a show at Stubbs that cost this much?  I know I know, C3 had to pay what I’m sure is the ridiculous fee to get the band… but come on!

New Music From La Sera

I think it’s time we all jump aboard that hype machine train with this relatively new Hardly Art band La Sera.  The project is the brain child of current Vivian Girls bass player Katy Goodman who began working on new material under the La Sera name back in February.  For now, the only material from the lovely ladies new band is a 7″ single featuring the track below “Never Come Around” and flip side “Behind Your Eyes”.  Street date for that single is November 17th with a full album coming in 2011.  You’ll notice a sound similar to Best Coast combined with some of the sweet bass/drum beats created by Vivian Girls (duh she’s the bass player).

New Tunes from Talbot Adams

What do you do when your rock n’ roll career is hampered by the birth of children? Well, in the case of Talbot Adams, you retreat to your home, turn the amps down from 11, and start writing kick ass songs.   His new Jack and Jesse EP, which is possibly inspired by the birth of his twin boys, contains four tracks, all of which are really short, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have a lot of spirit and heart!  You can get said business by visiting Douchemaster Records, who consistently put out solid records for us all. Here’s a sample of Talbot’s new work.

New Music From Sunset

Local boy Bill Baird and his band known as Sunset have a new MP3 floating around of a track called “Heavy Light”.  The song appears on the band’s upcoming new LP entitled Loveshines but the Moon is Shining Too which is already available digitally and physically in stores October 12th.  I’m enjoying the jangly pop vibe of this song and it should convince you to pick up this release as soon as it hits your local record store.

New Tunes from Yuck

While I might not be 100% behind the name of this group, I definitely can get behind their sound.  Yuck hails from the UK, and they’ve just signed an American deal with Fat Possum, which seems to be picking up lots of solid groups.  You might say they have a little bit of POBPAH in their sound, but the female vocals are a lot stronger, giving a youthful vibe to the group’s sound, while still keeping it in that gaze arena.  The band has the Georgia single coming out in the Stages on November 23rd, and you can look to find a whole full-length in 2011. Buen Proveche.

New Music from Cavalcade

The Cavalcade hail from Northwest UK, and, well, they definitely sound like it.  They’ve just released their latest album, Many Moons, and its precisely what we’ve all come to associate with that area of prolific musicians.  Influenced by the likes of Felt, they’ve got a casual bit of smooth swing, pristine guitar cuts, and whispering vocals. It’s one of those records that just has you casually tapping your foot beneath your desk, falling in love, hoping that no one else around notices.

New Music from Gentleman Jesse and His Men

Make no mistake, Gentleman Jesse and His Men have been one of my favorite groups over the last few years.  No matter what happens, I always return to their simplistic power-pop, and pogo about my room like a child.  This is probably what we all needed a little bit more of in our life, isn’t it? Well, lucky for you, Jesse and his posse have released a brand new 7′ titled She’s a Trap.  I picked it up at his show not too far back, but you can grab it from his label Douchemaster.  Keep an eye on this chap, as there’s surely a new record right around the corner, but for now, here’s the title track off the recent release.

Free Tunes from Museum Mouth

As you’re gearing up for the weekend, it can’t hurt if we offer you up some free tunes now cant it?  Well, lucky for us all, Museum Mouth is offering you their entire discography for the price of, well, nothing.  They’ve got a nice little lo-fi sound, fused with a touch of cutesiness.  I mean that in the most sincere way, honestly. You can get the goodness by going HERE.

New Music From Wheels On Fire

When wading through the black hole known as the ATH inbox, it is often times very difficult to find any new music worth a damn to be honest.  So imagine my surprise when I came across this up and coming Athens band Wheels On Fire!  Over the last few years, the band has been hard at work touring and also quietly releasing 3 LPs on smaller labels.  Upon first listen to their tunes, you’ll notice a rough edge to their sound that harks back to some of the underground garage rock circa 1965 or so.  The band also currently has a 7″ single entitled Cherry Bomb up for sale on the group’s Kind Turkey label site or digitally on itunes.  Below you can find the track that caught our ear called “Black Wave”.
