The S-ft F-cus Release Lousy w’ Love

April 25, 2022 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

I’m a bit behind on getting to this S-ft F-cus EP, Lousy w’ Love, but felt like it was the perfect way to get us all into tuneage on this Monday. The Miami based project, helmed by Aussie Danny Lee Allen certainly has a penchant for crafting lo-fidelity guitar pop gems, as you can see by the track hanging out below. At times, you’re like, yeah, sure, Bob Pollard influences. But, then there are these more intricate little melodic guitar moments lurking in and out of the tune, bending strings around harmonic notes that build into this dreamy soundscape buried in the wash of noise. Feel like you need something refreshingly different? Try this one on for size.

Jangling Pop from Mumbly

November 15, 2013 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Ok, so I admit that the jangling adjective might be a little played out, but I think it’s a pretty spot on way to approach this song from Mumbly. What’s unfortunate is that while the song is new to most fans, the band is no more. They’ve been silent for 15 years, though this piece is finally coming to life thanks to Dufflecoat Records opting to release the Mumblybule EP. I’m not sure exactly what the release will include, nor when it will come out, but you can’t deny the infectious tunes their modern day glory. One listen to this and you’ll be remiss that you weren’t on this sooner…at least that’s how I’m feeling as I listen.
