New Music From Secret Cities

Leave a comment

It’s fairly obvious that we here at ATH are big fans of Secret Cities and the sweet tunes they’ve been brining our way over the last year or so.  So only about a year removed from their highly under-appreciated debut LP from last year, the band is looking to release their sophomore effort this Spring on Western Vinyl.  New album Strange Hearts will be available on March 29th and features this new single “Love Crime”.  It shows a whole lot of promise and makes me think you might want to pick up this new album come March.

More New Music From The Go! Team

2 comments

A few months back we shared a new track with you called “T.O.R.N.A.D.O.” from somewhat forgotten pop hit makers Go! Team.  Well now the band’s new LP Rolling Blackouts is hitting stores next week and we figured the Friday before release date would be a good time to share another new song.  This one is called “Voice Yr Choice” and might just put Go! Team back on top of the indie dance playlists.

New Music From Dag För Dag

One comment

Dag för Dag are an American-Swedish band formed by brother sister duo Sarah & Jacob Snavely.  We were recently sent new single “I am Assassin” from the group and have been digging them ever since.  They tend to remind a lot of old school Radiohead, with a chick lead singer of course.  You can pick up debut American LP Boo from Dag för Dag on April 26th via Ceremony Recordings.

New Music From Cat’s Eyes

Leave a comment

Despite their absolutely ridiculous band name, I’ve been enjoying this new relaxing tune from Cat’s Eyes called “Not a Friend”.  The relatively new duo formed by Rachel Zeffira and Faris Badwin of The Horrors are dropping their debut self-titled LP on April 11th in the UK on Polydor Records and stateside on May 3rd via Downtown Records. You can also head over to the P4K to watch a live video of the band’s first ever breathtaking performance inside the Vatican, yes THAT Vatican.  No lie.

New Music From The Luyas

Leave a comment

We all know that I love me a great female lead singer and Jessie Stein of Canadian band The Luyas is no different.  She has that subtle approach to her vocals most similar to Satomi Matsuzaki of Deerhoof.  Combine that sweet vocal sound, throw in a catchy little beat and you’ve got this new single from the band “Too Beautiful to Work”.  You can hear this new tune and nine other new songs on the bands upcoming LP Too Beautiful to Work out February 22nd on Dead Oceans.

Free Mini LP from Brown Recluse

Leave a comment

In preparation for the release of their album, Evening Tapestry, the catchy Brown Recluse have released an aboslutely free mini-LP for you to download, and perhaps hold you over for the time being.  This little release is titled Panoptic Mirror Maze, and I’ve been enjoying this all morning.  They even have a little video to go with one of the tracks, emphasizing that this band is just as hard working as they are enjoyable, which is quite a bit, if you’re asking me.  If this is the kind of music you’re into, then head right over to the band’s Bandcamp Page to grab this for yourself.

New Track from The Feelies

One comment

When they first announced that they were reissuing old Feelies LPs on vinyl last year, I think I probably creeped out the people at Waterloo Records a bit much, as I was practically fawning over them.  Now, a whole lotta years later, the band is offering up new tunes for their record Here Before, which will come out on April 12th. This first single definitely has the group sounding a bit older than such classics as “Fa Ce La,” but it certainly brings back a lot of that blending of harmonies with a sense of quirk.  I’m glad the band’s back, as I’m realizing today I missed listening to them more than I knew. You don’t have to go back in time any more; here’s new music from The Feelies.

New Track from Hunx and His Punx

Leave a comment

Oh man oh man!  I’m so excited about this new Hunx and His Punx that I can barely wait.  Hunx hasn’t put anything official out since the compilation titled Gay Singles, and really, this is his first official LP.  It’s going to be called Too Young To Be In Love, and so far, it sounds a heck of a lot more like a nice garage swing band, as opposed to the garage pop in singles like “You Don’t Like Rock n’ Roll.”  Seems like you could have a helluva good time just slow-jamming this with your lover.  The record also included some guest spots, namely that of Shannon of Shannon and the Clams, another band I dig quite a bit.  Come on people, get behing the feel good sounds, and buy the album when it hits stores on March 29th via Hardly Art.

New Music From Milk Thistle

Leave a comment

Austin’s very own Milk Thistle recently release a new EP Dread’s Bloom that we ATH kids have been spinning around our offices.  They’ve got a great driving sound that hits straight in your chest with heavy bass and powerful vocals to boot.  Below you can find my favorite song by the band “Goldin Theng”.  If this one strikes your fancy, you can check out two more songs by Milk Thistle over on their bandcamp page.  I believe the Austin scene is gonna have a great 2011.

New Music from My Little Pony

Leave a comment

Okay, so I may not be entirely sold on the entire name here, but at least the music is really good.  It’s one of the things I like a great deal about running this site: finding music I wouldn’t have heard otherwise.  This Oslo group are releasing their album Making Marks, which features the catchy little single we’re offering up here.  It’s light-hearted and warm, but most of all its sugary sweet, which is precisely what I needed to hear this evening.  And, the band apparently be making their way to Austin for SXSW, so now I have My Little Pony to get excited about before the festivities officially kick off in March.  Take a listen, then go ahead and smile.
