New Music from Passion Pusher

May 9, 2017 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Admittedly, there’s a small market for the sort of music Passion Pusher‘s crafting, but perhaps that’s why the Scot’s music is so intriguing. He’s clearly out there to write songs for little more purpose than allowing his musical gifts to escape into the world. You’ll hear that the recording is a touch murky, almost as if its coming via tin cans and string. Still, in a super brief amount of time, James Gage is capable of crafting this infectious melody that stays with you long after the song’s gone passed. His new collection, Aquarium, will be released by Song, By Toad on June 16th to eagerly awaiting pop fans.

FT5: One Hit Wonder Albums of the 90s

July 2, 2010 -1893llzws 4 comments

Ah the nineties! The smell of grungy teen spirit and catchy pop songs…does this sound like the intro of a late night infomercial yet? Good.

There is plenty of debate regarding epic rock bands and influential artists that derived during the 90s. There are also those bands that developed during this decade, became ridiculously popular, and either faded away or became larger-than-life.

I’m sure each and every one of you reading this is guilty of immediately purchasing an entire album based on one chart-topping track during this time period. The hits that came out of the 90s take you back to where you were when you first heard it, affected your life in some way and ultimately became a part of pop culture iconography.

There is an abundance of one hit wonder singles. However, this is a list of albums that gained bands immediate attention based on those hits, and never really produced another decent album. As you slammed your Pogs, took a break from Nintendo and recorded Fresh Prince on your VHS, you might have been listening to one of these.
