Home Front Drop New Single
I was just talking to B.Gray yesterday about my need for something that felt energetic like the best of synth pop, but had just enough of an edge to keep my rock n’ roll desires in check. Lo and behold, Home Front drop one last glimpse into their Watch It Die LP; it sounds like the Killers, if they weren’t so dramatic, instead growing up with a skateboard beneath their feet. The whole of the song embraces this anthemic quality, as if they were building arena rock hits they could deliver to you in small dingy spaces that would make you feel alive. The new LP is out on Friday via La Vida Es Un Mus Discos.

While the previous week seemed like the music biz was doing their typical song and dance, closing down releasees to focus on the lists and what nots. But, this week picked up, at least on my end, as we covered tons of new releases and new singles. There were a couple of out-of-the-blue announcements that I was grateful to enjoy, like brand new Just Joans and Kiwi Jr, both of whom just dropped some straight bangers into my mix. I really loved the new Pansy single, as its one of the more special tunes in the mix this week…and that Hirons single had its own way of captivating too. Along with all that, it was good to see Natalie Jane Hill back in the fold, as well as Emma Russack. Little bit of everything for you, so dig on.
As the year nears its close, there’s a handful of releases that are worthy of your listening experience. We wanted to run through a couple of them so you had some stuff to enjoy as you browse Bandcamp on the first Friday of the month. You’ll find some mellows jams, some guitar pop, and some powerhouse vocals…all of which we encourage you to enjoy by clicking below! Don’t forget to support your artists and labels.
