Last Week’s Jams (3.24 – 3.28)

In playing catch-up from Spring Break, we covered quite a bit of new music, though I may have run out of steam at week’s end. Still, we brought you some new music from Austin artists like Sophia Warren, Adrian Quesada, Will Johnson and Day Friend. Unfortunately, the Day Friend was your sneak peek before their show this Friday at 13th Floor, so we’ll include that in next week’s jams. We also got to premiere a brand new Why Bother jam, so be sure to give that one a listen. Some of my personal favorites from the week are down below, like a new Dumb Things single, as well as fresh Pachyman to boot. And as always, the sounds are all over the place, from the folk of Swedes Egentid to the crazy joyousness of Johnny Maraca‘s garage punk! Play it all below!

Bedridden Share Philadelphia Get Me Through Single

There’s new singles coming out left and right, and my disastrous ability to focus on one genre sees me skittering between pop and soft rock and, well, bold blasts of rock like the latest from Bedridden. Their newest single wastes no time grabbing the listener, using thunderous pounding drum work to match up with the wriggling bits of discordant guitar noise. While the vocal entry offers up a soft underbelly, the tune still drives forward with such power that there’s nothing to do but brace yourself for wave after wave of smashing rock n’ roll. I also am quite appreciative of the fact they’re not trying to cleverly disguise their sound, just coming out with guitars and drums ablaze. Moths Strapped to Each Other’s Backs will be out on April 11 via Julia’s War.
