New Music from So So Glos

September 17, 2010 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

This New York quartet is sure to to blow up your Friday. So So Glos have slowly been building their notoriety over the last few years, and their prepping the release of their Low Back Chain Shift EP on October 12th on Green Owl. The first few listens to their single “Lindy Hop” might make you recall some of the other acts coming out of the area, like VW per se, but there’s this grittier edge and true eclecticism that resonates when listening to this track. This has me really excited for both the EP and future full lengths. It’s like punk rock, but with a touch of class, you dig?

September 16, 2010 RayRay Leave a comment

An old ATH favorite John Vanderslice is offering up a free EP today entitled Green Grow the Rush. The 6 track extended player is currently available in several formats over on the man’s website. Below we are streaming “Pony Express” from the EP which John tells us is “an apology letter to a long lost unfinished stamp collection, buried deep in my mother’s basement”. Who knew dorky hobbies could be so sweet sounding.

New Music from Aberfeldy

September 16, 2010 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

What on Earth is Aberfeldy? Well, one thing is for sure, this Scottish quintet are making waves over seas, kicking out smooth pop gems, just like we expect those Scots to do. They recently put out their album Somewhere to Jump From overseas, and we’re not sure when we’ll see it over on our side, but I’ve had this track, “Turn the Record Over” stuck in my head all day long. It’s got a smooth vocal delivery, and a little more groovy soul twist then you usually find with your indie pop. Want some candy? How about Aberfeldy?

New Music from Nobunny

September 15, 2010 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Ever seen a man in a bunny mask rock the stage with garage pop so good you’ll immediately go grab yourself a mask just to join the colony? Well, such is the case with the geniune genius of Nobunny. He’s got a new record coming out on Goner Records titled First Blood, which hits stores September 21st. The production on this latest hit is tenfold what it was on the last album, but don’t think that’s going to stop this group from holding back on the catchiest guitar pop around, full of grit and exuberance. You better give this latsest single, “Blow Dumb,” a good solid listen, that way you’ll be ready to get your hands on this when it hits stores next week!

New Music From Secret Cities

September 15, 2010 RayRay Leave a comment

Secret Cities is a band that quietly released their debut LP Pink Graffiti on Western Vinyl earlier this year. Receiving a 4 star rating from us means we’ll be paying attention to you when new material comes our way. New material is just what we’re getting from the band by way of this new song “On Holiday”. The haze pop filled jam is just a single release that also includes a cover of Ellie Greenwich’s song ” You Don’t Know”. That song is available for purchase and download on iTunes right now!

New Music from Darlings

September 14, 2010 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

This week is full of awesome rock n’ roll releases, and the copy of Darlings‘ new EP that came in my inbox today just adds to that list of great pop tracks. Be on the lookout for their Warma EP, which definitely brings traditional pop rock back to our ears. This first single “Big Girl” does have a bit of a Weezer resemblance, back in the heyday of course, but don’t just be satisfied with this one little track, as there is much more vibrant rock coming from this band in your very near future.

New Music from Houses

September 13, 2010 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Houses, like many of us, have had a hard time of things, facing economic woes and what not. In the process, they relocated to Hawaii, living in what some might consider obscurity. Using solar power to fuel their recording process, the band ended up building a quite record, one that sounds as if it was created in a remote area of anywhere, as it clearly was. Lead single “Soak it Up” uses quiet electronics to create some sort of contemplative oceanic wave, that gently idles along as you find yourself absorbed, possibly within yourself. Such is the work of Houses, who will release their album All Night on Lefse on October 19th.

New Music from Weekend

September 13, 2010 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Don’t you just feel like you need a bath in some noise rock? Well, Weekend just might provide you with that, but they aren’t content to just let squalls of feedback remain as their lone impression. They’ve got driving bass grooves, and first single “Coma Summer” keeps a bit of melody courtesy of singer Shaun Durkan’s soft voice. Their album Sports will hit the streets on November 9th via Slumberland, and rest assured that the album is worth every bit of the excitement generated by early press. Be careful, this is going to be loud.

New Music from Adam H Stephens

September 13, 2010 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

A few weeks back we brought you news of Adam H. Stephens prepping his debut solo album titled We Live on Cliffs, which will now be released by Saddle Creek on September 28th. The first single we brought you was what we would expect from one of the lads from Two Gallants, but this new single, “Second Mind,” has an entirely different feel to it altogether. Slower pace, a bit of organ, and a steadier vocal performance demonstrate that Stephens can offer us so much more than I think we expected. Be sure to give this one a try folks.
