Brand New Track from Ladada

Leave a comment

Ladada recently announced their long awaited debut album, Heaven on the Rocks, and today we’re happy to share the album’s second single with you. Immediately you’ll hear the band’s raucous throwback sound, made fresh with subtle hooks and bubbling movement from the rhythm section. What I like a great deal, and what gets the band lumped in with new-psych is there tempo switch, changing the direction of the song, albeit for a brief moment; it is light and sunny and sets up the band’s noisy shuffle to the song’s boisterous ending. You can preorder the new LP from Gold Robot Records; it drops in October!

Slept on This Salient Braves Tune

Leave a comment

The latest track from The Salient Braves has been out for just 8 days, and I’m just now catching up! Luckily, great songs get to last in the world forever, and this is one of the band’s greatest songs. There’s so much to love, be it the gentle ringing of the guitars, the backing vocals that add depth or the occasional horn work. Of course, the British vocal affectation that always charms is ever present; it sounds in a strange way like The Wedding Present went for a straightforward pop record…and that’s okay in my book!

More New Still Corners

Leave a comment

I know a lot of people are super in-love with that new Beach House LP, and that’s all well and good, but you’re going to want to hear the work Still Corners are putting out. Today they shared this lush new track from their forthcoming LP, Slow Air. As dreamy as the song seems, there’s still elements of quietloudquiet…opening the song with this dense dream world before a simple guitar chord rings to add more power, all before the waves flow back to the shores of softness. But, that doesn’t even include the thirty seconds or so around the 3 minute mark with those stabbing lines of brightness! The new LP drops on August 17th via Wrecking Light.

A Rocking Number From Relative Ways

Leave a comment

It’s Monday morning, it’s hot as hell, and it’s time to kick off the week with a little rock n roll to take the edge off. Today my rock music is coming from Aussie Matt Finnemore and his relatively new project known as Relative Ways. For sharing today is his new single “This World” which features several elements of the 90s grunge rock movement combined with a somewhat brighter sound of modern day rock bands like Wavves or Surfer Blood. I love the edge and grit shown by the vocals and the music from Matt.

Relative Ways will release new album Alaska on August 10th.

Check This Ead Wood Tune

Leave a comment

Trying to find the bright side of a Monday? I’m thinking this new track from Ead Wood & the Heights might do just the trick. The Bristol band have this great guitar sound, almost twinkling through your speakers. There’s a real softness to the vocals of Ed, and I especially enjoy the little change in pitch right before the two minute mark signals a slow move towards the song’s close. It’s a great way to start off Monday, with similarities to acts like Real Estate, you’re sure to enjoy a good couple of spins on this tune. Stay tuned for more the Beige Dreams EP coming soon!

WWPJ Return With A Bang

Leave a comment

Though maybe a little late on the news here, it seems important for us to always share news on bands that have long been favorites of the ATH team. We Were Promised Jetpacks certainly has received a lot of notoriety on our site so of course this announcement of a new album after a long four-year wait is exciting for the entire crew. What’s even more exciting is this new song “Hanging In” seems to be a return to form for the band after a minor letdown with their last album. It’s pretty damn epic. Welcome back boys.

WWPJ will release new album The More I Sleep the Less I Dream on September 14th.

Tim Rutili of Califone Plays Beerland Saturday Night

Leave a comment

Former Red Red Meat and current Califone songwriter Tim Rutili has been at it for forever. But, currently, he’s focused on his project with his Austin friend, Craig Ross; the two released Guitars Tuned to Air Conditioners back in 2016 and 10 Seconds to Collapse this last month. If you were to listen to the lead single, you’d probably recall Yankee Hotel Foxtrot era Wilco…when they were still dabbling with experimenting over folk structures. The duo will be playing Saturday night at Beerland, joined on stage by friends Lindsey Verrill and Thor Harris; Moist Flesh and Knife in the Water will also be playing. Stream the song below and you’ll know immediately why you need to be there! More info on the show/tickets HERE.

 

Bedroom Pop from Henry Nowhere

Leave a comment

California native Henry Nowhere has spent the last several years as a member of Day Wave, and while a paycheck is all well and good, he couldn’t resist the opportunity to craft his own tunes. His first single has him working over this casual bedroom beat; it’s surprising how the mere mention of his locale evokes waves in the movement/propulsion of the beats. He throws in this light guitar line, more dreamy than jangle, though perhaps meeting in the middle ground of the two. Be on the lookout for his debut EP real soon…I’d happily take five more songs like this any day.

Missed This Matthew Lee Cothran Ditty

Leave a comment

Somehow this track slid by my DMs, but not to worry; I’m here to make amends. As I listen to this wonderful track from Matthew Lee Cothran, I can’t help but be appreciative of his solo work…especially after he called it a day with Coma Cinema. It’s a pretty simple song, seemingly, but the special way that Cothran turns a line always charms me; I’m partial to the line ” we’ll get there together/on the other side of all this pain we feel.” It’s great to see Matthew doing everything on his own terms and his own way; it will always be special to me. Looks like he has a new mini-album titled My First Love Mends My Final Days, dropping next Friday and featuring the gem below.

Pinch Points Drop Debut EP

Leave a comment

Recently stumbled across this brand new Pinch Points EP, and its stuck with me ever since. The Melbourne based four piece plays that sort of proto-punk that has you stuck between a solid bedroom pogo and a circle pit. The whole EP is sharp as nails, with standout “Jellybrain” sure to have you coming back to the band for more. Plus, there’s a slight political undercurrent, though not overdone, so you can go merrily on your way without grasping at the message, if you so choose. The Mechanical Injury EP is available now, and streaming below!
