Enjoy This New Ice Baths Tune

Leave a comment

Ice Baths definitely fit in the realm of any post-genre; there’s elements of post-punk or post-rock, but for me, they’re stretching out those styles. This latest single has those sharp guitar chords that ring discordantly while the rhythm section plods along; the vocals hang in the air, patiently. Then there’s a slight uptick in the energy, almost revealing psychedelic influences; they perhaps owe more to this genre than they’d like to admit, stretching the song beyond expected limits. Their debut album will drop on May 11th via Blank Editions.

New Hit from Teenage Cavegirl

Leave a comment

I’ve been jamming this new Teenage Cavegirl tune pretty nonstop. The duo seem to accomplish what not every two-piece can…leaving listeners with infectious pop music that’s rewarding time and time again. The grainy video accompanying their new single also seems to capture the group’s vibe, prominent pink and greens bursting as those drums hammer away in step with the crunchy guitar riffs. Word on the streets is they’re wrapping up the finishing touches on their debut album, and we’ll hopefully have more news for you soon.

Second Still Offer Up Dark Pop

Leave a comment

You’re thrust forward from the minute this new Second Still song starts, guitar’s ringing as the beat forces you down some imaginary hallway. It’s almost as if you’re running from something you can’t see, with the band running just behind you, never letting you slow. There’s even a little bit of solace, briefly before the 1.40 minute mark; you can almost catch your breath and then the song careens off towards its close. It’s dark, yet poppy, thus leaving listeners with just enough exhilaration to have them coming back. The band will drop the Equals EP on Friday via Weyrd Son Records.

New Cut Worms Video

Leave a comment

Admittedly, I can’t help but think of early Tallest Man on Earth when I listen to Cut Worms. But, also in all fairness, we covered those early releases quite a bit, so it makes sense. All that being said, there’s a little bit more of a pop swing in the sound, as opposed to a clear Dylan predecessor. Take the 2 minute mark and the rushed stutter and burst, before that forlorn harmonica reappears and crafts a sense of wonder and longing. This song will feature on his debut album, Hollow Ground, dropping on May 4th via Jagjaguwar.

Pinkshinyultrablast Drop New Track

Leave a comment

The first minute of this new Pinkshinyultrablast tune might have you scratching your head, wondering when, and if, the song will take off. Rest assured, the 1 minute mark will leave you satisfied, as an immediate bounce comes in playfully bounding through your speakers. There’s a calming minute where Lybov’s vocals are given a slight uplift to your ears, accompanied with a subdued moment, musically. Then the track takes right off, filled with blazing electronics and shooting guitar chords in the distance. The group have come a long way, but one thing’s for sure, they always deliver; look for Miserable Miracles on May 4th via Club AC30/Shelflife.

 

Nice Dream Pop From Lev Snowe

Leave a comment

The dream pop genre has been gaining a lot of steam recently and sometimes certain artists can pull of the genre a hell of a lot better than others. Take the young Lev Snowe for example who crafts some beautiful numbers which further expand the quality of the genre. His new song entitled “When I Look Back” is a perfect example of his song writing skills. My favorite piece of the song is near the 3:00 minute mark when things break down a bit with some slick bass lines and enchanting beats. I suggest you check it out now.

Lev Snowe will release new EP Faded Blue on June 1st.

Brand New Indiepop from Azure Blue

Leave a comment

Oh Tobias how I’ve missed you. It’s been a couple of years since we’ve heard from Tobias and his Azure Blue project, but out of nowhere he drops a new EP, with news of a full-length coming right around the corner. The newest tune is a heavy synthpop gem, filled with a deep melody that’s washed over by warm vocals. There’s a few new tracks on this Whatever 18′ EP, with the rest compiled from hard to find singles released elsewhere; one of the tunes is a cover of “Justice” by Robert Forster. Grab it over at Matinee Recordings, and then sit back and enjoy the pop sensation while we wait for the next LP.

Good Morning Drop Two New Singles

Leave a comment

Just a few weeks ago we were alerted to the news that Aussie act Good Morning would finally be releasing a new full-length via Bedroom Suck Records. And now, we’ve got two new tracks to sit back and enjoy this morning, reveling in the duo’s songwriting. “Just a Man” is slightly playful, though it draws in some folk traditions, particularly in the way the vocals are presented. “For a Little While” is more of a slow burner, working over electronic beats and piano to craft a powerful ballad. If you’re unfamiliar with the band, give these a listen, as I’m sure you won’t be let down. Prize//Reward will drop on may 11th.

New Ari Roar Jam

Leave a comment

Dallas’ Ari Roar is hitting the spot this morning. He crafts these hook infected pop songs that carry a bit of nostalgia, but hold one foot in the present. You’d think, the way this track kicks off that the guitar work might be the star, but once you hear Ari’s voice spinning those light melodies on almost every note, you’ll be intoxicated. There’s something familiar in his work, which I think will have many fans feeling like they’ve been listening to Ari for years. Let’s start that trend by grabbing Calm Down on May 25th via Bella Union.

Another Tune from High Sunn

Leave a comment

Clearly, I’m really loving what I’m hearing from Justin Cheromiah and his High Sunn project. This round he does a great job of balancing the quiet/loud dynamic; you can hear the tension building in the sound as cymbals quietly crash behind Justin’s voice in the verses, before their brief choral explosion. The song goes back and forth between the two, with the noisier element winning out in the song’s latter half. This youngster seems destined to release a great record, and we’ll all know for sure when Missed Connections drops on May 4th via PNKSLM.
