Last Week’s Jams (2.24 – 2.28)

Pretty solid wee of new music last week, and we got to as much as our time allowed. We even managed to start getting some of our SXSW coverage together, as the festival is somehow just over the horizon; RayRay got an interview up with Population II you should check out. We even got back on some album stream coverage, making sure to have the homies in Constant Follower and Daily Worker up there. We continue as the one-site hype machine for Sharp Pins Radio DDR reissue, but there some of my favorite acts also returned with their own new jams to grab us, like Dumb Things and Jetstream Pony. I even jumped on the Sports Team train with their latest single. Get into it below.

Autogramm Share New 7″

As the year picks up in releases, we’d like to turn your attention towards Vancouver’s Autogramm, who share their new 7″ single with the masses today. Once you dive in, you’ll immediately appreciate the group’s frivolity coursing through things; they operate with this joy that makes their songs instantaneously fun…and in this case, a little anthemic. While there’s an obvious nod to classic punk meets synth pop vibes, they still operate in that modern indie rock territory that embraces antics, like a sharper-edged version of OKGO. On the flip side of their new 7″ is a cover of Diodes “Jenny’s In a Sleep World,” which takes the pogo-style punker and turns it into a space-aged pop tune for the masses. Love how this lot manage to make everything so sing-a-long-able! Their new 7″ is available today via Dirt Cult Records (NA) and Goodwill Records (Europe).

Last Week’s Jams (9.25 – 9.29)

While it seemed like a slow week, in my brain at least, there was lots of really great stuff to cover over on the site. We were happy to host the new video from Seablite, so be sure you drop in and give it a couple of looks. Plus, our Rock n’ Recipes features returned with Spain’s Melenas, who dropped their new Ahora LP on Friday. Plus, Austin was alive and kicking with new stuff from Molly Burch, Semihelix and Sun June. Seeing our old friends in Pop Filter return to the fold was just a little cherry on top of a great week of music. There’s lots more for you to find in this playlist!

Autogramm Share WannaBe, Announce New LP

Wanted to start your day off with some solid pop rock, courtesy of Vancouver’s Autogramm. The band specialize in modern sounds, with an homage to classic pop hits Ric Ocasek might have been crafting behind the scenes. In the opening, there’s this huge playing riff, setting up this futuristic stomp that runs through the track. They then turn to this brilliant melodic pop delivery, reminiscent of great 90s alt radio sounds; it’s soaring charms with just the right amount of boogie to make your toes tap away. If you dig it, they’ll be releasing Music That Humans Can Play on November 14th via Stomp Records.
