Last Week’s Jams (2.19 – 2.23)

With a holiday squeezed in, and some craziness on my own end, we maybe didn’t cover as much as I ideally would have liked to cover. Nonetheless, there was tons of great tunes running on the site, including a premiere from 40th Parallel, plus brand spanking new music from Apollo Ghosts…which I’m still listening to right now. Rural France is back too, so we included that in our coverage, not to mention the fact that we got a hot new Daniel Romano tune included. You can never go wrong either with new Reds, Pinks and Purples or En Attendant Ana…and those are included. It’s a 45 minute collection of solid rock n’ roll, so turn it on and turn it up.

Latest Track from Bedbug

There’s something magical that seems to come through my speakers when I play a Bedbug track; it feels a bit like late 90s indie rock, when folks captured their imperfections without fear, hoping just to pour their emotions into the musical side of things. I completely get those feels on this new single too, as it feels like the vocals get pushed to the edge of control, but when the song pulls back to its more personal moments, you begin to think that it was just the pure excitement of the songwriting getting carried away. Pack Your Bags the Sun is Growing really is starting to feel like something special. Grab a copy from Disposable America before it drops on March 15th.

Last Week’s Jams (1.8 – 1.12)

While it may have only been a four day week in terms of work, we made sure we made the best of it for you, bringing you a slew of hot indie rock bangers. Slumberland had a great week, dropping new music from Umbrellas, and introducing us to Torrey too! We were stoked to share a new video from the BVs as well, flipping their style a bit to tease you with what’s in store going forward. Some Texas love for Infinites and Alien Eyelid was a must, with an added bonus being that our friends in Pale Lights dropped a compilation of rarities and singles on Friday. Stream below and find something to adore.

Bedbug Announce Pack Your Bags the Sun is Growing

Having spent the better part of my life listening to tunes folks would describe as “emo,” I’ve found myself gravitating towards the newer stuff that’s not afraid to mess with the formula a bit, like Bedbug‘s latest single. For a great portion, the tune flirts with those pristine guitar sounds, the brightly ringing sort you might find on an Owls album; it works really well, setting the tone for some back and forth structural maneuvering. In the vocals, you have that gentleness, but also the delivery reminds me of the earnestness of early Good Morning or Hovvdy. All that probably feels a touch formulaic, yeah? Well, just as you begin to plant your feet in the style, the track slams down on the pedals and erupts briefly, embracing that exuberance; the brevity in that burst is where the success lives, for me, as my ears are much too old for a full on assault, so I’m pleased it settles right back into the fairer set. Look for the new album, Pack Your Bags the Sun is Growing on March 15th via Disposable America.
