New Tunes from Blur

Remember these kids?  Yeah, it’s been awhile since you heard from Blur, but now it seems that the band have patched things up with Graham Coxon.  They released a UK 7″ for Record Store Day (damn you UK!), but the band made the track available to US fans.  It’s a pretty chilled out little track, and one that resembles Albarn’s works with Gorillaz as opposed to Parklife, but who really cares?  I mean, come one, this is Blur, and they were one of the best (2nd best in my opinion) Brit pop groups ever. Love this new track.

New Tunes from Ty Segall

Everyone needs a little bit of garage rock in their life right?  And now that I’ve (we’ve) lost Jay Reatard (RIP), I’m hoping that Ty Segall can keep me pumped.  It looks like he’s on the right track with his latest 7″, which will also include a song from his upcoming album, Melted (hits stores on May 25th).  You’ve gotta love the simplicity of this song, and in that, its need to rock you.  Keep your eyes on this one kids.

New Tunes from Inlets

This is Sebastian.  He’s in My Brightest Diamond, but more importantly, and as I witnessed at SXSW, he’s got his own group, Inlets.  They were one of the bands I wish I had seen more of during the festival, but that one set entirely won me over.  This definitely is a bit more for the art-rock constructionist side of things, but you have to love the usage of all those instruments. The band’s album, Inter Arbiter is out April 20th, but if you want to get a listen to it now, you can head over to the group’s web site and give the whole thing a listen.

New Tunes from Beach Fossils

After SXSW we brought you news of one of our favorites, Beach Fossils.  At the time, they only had a 7″ and an Insound session, but now we’ve got more to offer you. Their self-titled album will be in stores on May 25th via Captured Tracks. This sneak peak has a lot more of a lo-fi tendency than I remembered live, but those pounding drums that one me over are very evident. All in all, this should definitely be an album full of consistently good jams.

New Tunes from Jaill

Jaill is one of the recent signees of our friends over at Sub Pop.  They’re from the Northwest, but their sound, especially on this tune, recalls a lot of the 90s indie rock, which we all acknowledge is the hey-day of the genre.  Be sure to keep an eye on the band, as they release That’s How We Burn on July 27th.

New Tunes from The Love Language

While researching fun things to buy this Saturday, I remembered that North Carolina’s The Love Language not only have a 7″ coming to us for Record Store Day, but also their debut album Libraries will hit stores July 13th via Merge Records. We have the first single from the album, and it promises good things to come, so get ready.

New Music From Johnny Flynn

English indie-folk hit maker Johnny Flynn is prepping his second release entitled Been Listening for release on Transgressive Records early in June.  I’m getting on the hype machine for the new LP after spinning this new track “Kentucky Pill” a few times.  That lil diddy with the backing horns over the strummed mandolin have been stuck in my head all day.

More New Music From The National

I’m sure you’ve seen this new National song floating around today, but we just love this band too much to not throw this thing up.  New song “Afraid of Everyone” is now the second single that the band has made available from their upcoming LP High Violet. That May release date better get here fast before I pee my pants.

New Music From Golden Triangle

Hardly Art band Golden Triangle might quite the stir during SXSW… So we have to pay attention to them right?  Right!?  Shortly after their trip to Austin, the band is prepping a highly anticipated split 7″ with Seattle boys The Fresh & Onlys.  That tasty little vinyl is hitting stores today and features this new track from Golden Triangle “Cold Bones”.  I am getting into this tune more than anything I’ve heard from the band so far.  I’ll be buying this one.
