The Teen Age Pay Homage in New Video

Leave a comment

unnamed (11)Brooklyn based band The Teen Age has always been a sort of throwback style band offering up hits similar to The Strokes or The Ramones. Embracing their sound and image, the boys have released this new video for one of their most recent singles “Backwards”. The video is essentially a shot for shot remake of a scene from the classic 1979 film Rock n Roll High School starring The Ramones. A killer song now has a video to go with it. Don’t forget to pick up The Teen Age’s latest EP Bad Seed now on Papercup Music.

Deeper Sign to Fire Talk

Leave a comment

Processed with VSCO with f2 presetMan if every label in the world discovered as much good music as Brooklyn outfit Fire Talk, the world would be a better place right? Well they have found yet another quality act in the form of Chicago based indie pop band Deeper. Now these guys create this sort of interesting take on dream pop but with a bit of an edge to it. As you probably know by now, describing music isn’t my strong suit and I prefer you to just trust me and hit play.

Deeper are currently working on a full release coming in 2017. Stay tuned.

This new song entitled “Bitter Filth” is yet another tune from the band that is sure to up your energy levels and make even the lamest person want to rock. Seriously, I don’t see how anyone could deny the infectious sound of this track. Go ahead, deny it. I dare you.

Cool Vibes from Mons Vi

Leave a comment

monsviI’ve hit up Mons Vi a few times before, and this new track is perfect for your Wednesday listening; it’s definitely chilled out while you contemplate the long two days aheads or the short two days behind us. I like the how the band’s early influences with jazz and piano have now been organized to create laid back pop structures. Still, it’s not entirely your ordinary fare; you’ll hear some odd samples and soloing guitar working against the casual feel of the track. This song is off the trio’s new single, which has another song you can grab HERE.

We’ve Got Retail Space!

One comment

retailspaceRetail Space is a pair from Brooklyn brandishing catchy pop music that you won’t want to turn off. While the band play upon the trading melodies of male and female vocals, they aren’t one to sound like too many of their contemporaries; I, for one, really like the energy that they’re kicking out. Like the best hits, the chorus is perfect for singing along, and the propulsive nature of the synth work builds you towards that emotional release. They’ll be releasing In the Lotia this June, and this our first listen…and what a listen it is.

Stream Let It Rise from 2/3 Goat

Leave a comment

TwoThirdsGoatHiRes5byJaredJefferyThe last year or so I’ve been re-indulging in my adoration for country/Americana/folk, which is actually where my earliest musical tastes began (thanks dad). So here we are streaming Let It Rise, the new album coming from Brooklyn’s 2/3 Goat. The record words its way back and forth between singers Annalyse McCoy and Ryan Dunn, each having a unique manner in which they portray the stories and tribulations that have dominated their lives. “Whiskey Sins” and “Jenny” both got the early single treatment in the album cycle, but I think I’ve been stuck listening to “Whistle in the Wind” a great deal as of late. The band will be self-releasing their record this Friday, so preview it below, and grab it if you love it.

The Loom Return!

Leave a comment

Upload_SxSW2ndSt_2012_03_16-18_40_13The Loom is a Brooklyn based band who are dear old friends of ours having played not one, but two of our SXSW shows over the years. Since that time way back in 2011, I haven’t heard much from lead singer John Fanning and assumed the band had called it quits. Well imagine my excitement today when I received word about a new album after a close to 5 year hiatus. Saving you anymore wordy words, I suggest you check out their new track premiering on the web today called “Fire Makes”. I’m loving this new directions from the band, seemingly trading in their folk tendencies of the past for a moreguitar heavytype of driving rock. Nice to see you again.

Here in the Deadlightswill be released on April 22nd via Crosbill Records.

Happy Friday, Here’s Mons Vi

2 comments

monsviSometimes tracks comes across the Internet that you just want to share with all your friends, and I think this Mons Vi track is just such a thing. There’s this jubilant structure to the song, but it’s not quite overly joyous, as the band coat the mix with a little bit of intentional noisiness. While the vocals seem to stay just on top, the band creates an emphatic performance behind, pacing the track as a whole. This song appears on the band’s brand new Self Help EP, which is currently available.

Sludgy Rocker from Ghost King

Leave a comment

bonesOur friends over at Fleeting Youth Records, who we’re working with on the upcoming Basketball Shorts LP, will soon be releasing a new album from Ghost King. There’s a heavy hand on this track, but the central force still maintains some melody, fitting perfectly when it’s juxtaposed to the darker bass groove that works through the track. They recorded their new album, Bones, live, which definitely can be felt through this song; you can feel the live emotion coming through the speakers as the song slowly fades out. You can grab their album on March 25th.
