Last Week’s Jams (7.7 – 7.11)
What a crazy week of music it was. We had new shit, cool shit, trendy shit, weird shit, dance shit…just a bunch of really awesome tunes. Austin had a lot of representation, with new jams from K. Boswell, Die Spitz and Day Friend and Thanks Light. There were several outright rad tunes that you need to crank up, like BRNDA and Weakened Friends, so be sure you click to give those the proper love. Some cool electronica style bops too, from the likes of Angel T33th, Brown Lemon and Solo Career. And, if you know what’s right for you, you’ll swing below and turn on that new Shame track…or find something weird in between.
A lot of really great music dropped today, and, well, we’d be poor stewards of the underground if we didn’t point you in the right direction for some of these new releases. You get indiepop legends returning after a lengthy absence; you get a bit of a modern take on the Pastels; try on an eccentric crooner; and end up with a little noise pop. You can’t go wrong with any of these releases, but as always be sure to support the artists and labels!
Going to be a bit of an off week, as RayRay is out on vacation, and I head out on the latter half of the week, but that doesn’t mean we didn’t crush it last week. I was finally able to let the cat out of the bag about new music from Heavenly/Swansea Sound; RayRay dropped the premiere for new ATX powerhouse, Porcelain. Oh, and B. Gray was coming through with sick photo work from Kilby Block Party and OMD, so we’re really just trying to make your musical world better. There’s a bunch of sweet jams, though I’ll admit I’m really loving the Slow Summits new tune, as well as the cover by Glass Spells. Stream below and feel free to comment on what you loved and what we missed!
I have not hidden my adoration for 
Last week was a rather busy one on our end, and I remember Wednesday giving me headaches in terms of what all we could cover. Alas, we had to start this week’s jams coverage off with the latest from Allo Darlin‘, who announced their first LP in some time. There was definitely some post-punk vibes cooking with acts like Artificial Go and Teethe dropping super cool new tunes that I couldn’t stop playing around our little house in the burbs. Had some old regulars pop up too, like Strawberry Whiplash and Welcome Strawberry; it was a strawberry themed week I supposed. You’ll also find some super cool oddball tunes too from the likes of Kilynn Lunsford and Vov Vov! Get it all below:
I definitely didn’t expect to be uttering the above words any time soon, or admittedly, maybe ever again. That said, I couldn’t wait to get up this morning and get your ears on this brand new 
I raved and raved about Love Keeps Kicking, not to mention kept screaming at the top of my lungs to the whole record, so I’m glad to hear 
I’ve seen lots of lists about the most anticipated albums of the next few months, and sadly, none of the ones I’ve seen include
