Hadda Be Return with New to the Office

Leave a comment

It’s been a few years since Hadda Be dropped their glorious debut, Another Life; it was a record that got tons of press overseas, and so today their return is welcome news. I think the angular riffs are going to immediately label their sound as a post-punk brand, particularly with those sharp riffs and growling bass lines; the vocals do sit in a matter-of-fact fashion, not unlike Dry Cleaning or the like. For me, there are some other influences like the Raincoats, especially when the whole group comes in to deliver a soft vocal chorus. There’s a third little moment that’s angry, taking it out upon the routines of modernity in our world. A glorious return!

Orchid Mantis Shares Another Life

Leave a comment

I wanted to spend some time this Monday morning hanging out somewhere rather quiet, somewhere to kind of let the silence of the world be appreciated, which is the perfect setting for this new Orchid Mantis tune. There’s this natural peacefulness to it, created by the general stroke of the guitar as it steadies in the front of the mix. For their part, the vocals hang back in the corner of the room, perhaps even drifting in from down the hallways, allowing the listener to kind of dwell in their own headspace. If this isn’t a Monday morning tune, I’m not sure what else is!

Hadda Be Share Mercurial Single

Leave a comment

Last year, Hadda Be released their excellent Another Life LP, a record that was filled equally with pop and rock hooks. But, having roots in the post-punk arena, the band seem ready to flex that muscle again with their latest single. There’s certainly an angular notion that comes from the guitar, stabbing at the speakers, setting up the song for this openness that allows for the vocals to sweep into the picture. What I love here is the band tight-roping that walk between various genres, sharp in some spots, dreamy in others, ultimately leading you to a chorus that serves as your reward. Once it hits, you can feel the bravado in the voice, operating with this sense of cool that’s coated in melody. Enjoy a new ditty here!

Hadda Be Announce Another Life

Leave a comment

If you’re looking for a little bit of dreamy pop combined with sprinkles of 90s rock, then boy have I got the band for you today: Hadda Be! They’re the newest act on powerhouse label Last Night from Glasgow, and I can’t get over this jam. It’s got just a hint of swagger that nods at punk, but these arena rock feels that make it sound huge; you feel like you’re surrounded by hoards of fans clamoring to hear those huge riffs billow through the speaker stacks. Some rock just feels timeless, feels like it could bridge any genre, any emotion; this tune is one such track, and thus should be the highlight of your listening experience today. Look for Another Life to drop on April 30th.

Tomorrows Unleash Golden Lion

tomorrowsI’m really enjoying this new track from Tomorrows, living somewhere between the worlds of psychedelia and indie rock. The vocals soar atop a stomping blend of organ and bending chords. They just released their debut album, Another Life, which is filled with a blend of classic touches and modern reinventions…I think you can surely hear that in this number. I’m a huge fan of the chorus, but I’ve also enjoyed trying to unfold the various textures that leave the song as a standout in my mind. Give it a little listen below.
