Last Week’s Jams (9.8 – 9.12)

What a week of fun tunes! I was really stoked with some of the stuff we were able to premiere on our end, such as new jams from Lola Tried and Giant Day, not to mention that incredible Morwan track all the way from Ukraine. If you haven’t checked any of those out, well, wait no more and click below. You’ll also find the best of indiepop with brand new songs from Telephone Numbers and the Cords. I was happy to hear some new music from Mary Onettes, as they’ve long been one of my go to listens. Plus, there’s never a bad day for Stella Donnelly, dropping us a preview of her new album. Don’t be afraid to let us know what you loved!

Bondo Share Tascam C-Sides Remastered

Los Angeles outfit Bondo just put out their newest release, Tascam C-Sides Remastered, and the opening track alone warrants your ear this morning. They’re offering this sort of downtrodden guitar pop, and the heaviest notes feel like the weight of the world is pressing against your chest. But, then that lighter guitar notes seems to ring out and reach home, in a certain sense, offering what solace it can find by slowly intoxicating us with its striking melodic discord. In a sense, its sort of what I imagine Galaxie 500 might sound like if they were surrounded by all the kids giving it a go out of making pretty noise. Take on the single below then jam to the whole new record!

Last Week’s Jams (8.26 – 8.30)

Sorry for taking Monday off, but even us little guys need a break from time to time. But, here we are to remind you of the great stuff we covered last week, with some absolute bangers you’ll have in your ear for the rest of the day/week/year. I absolutely love the Miners tune that kicks things off, with a quick jangling follow up from Young Scum right behind it. And to be honest, the Pop Filter tune had me in my feelings all weekend long, so be sure you stick to the end of that track. Some nods to new releases from Easy Sleeper, Mint Field, Stinako and Shady Cove also made it into our weekly suggestions. Oh, and as if all this wasn’t enough, you have to dip your toes in the new Dummy and Nothing Natural singles, doing the Cali subset proud.

Bondo Shares Harmonica Single

Imagine a world where folks got together for a listening parking garage listening party, a la Zaireeka!. If you can place that, think of one side of the garage spinning instrumental Fugazi tunes while the far end is spitting out the artier side of Pinback or maybe even Bedhead; this gives you the feel of the latest track from LA’s Bondo. It’s not quite aggressive enough to fall into that punk category, but you get the feel that they’re hanging just beneath that edge, ready to pop out if the need be. They’re careful weaving in this tune makes you feel like the tune’s just one sonic layer upon layer, built for your daily escape into madness. They’ll drop their new LP, Harmonica, on October 18th via Dayend Records.
