BS Return with Dead Flowers
It’s always a good sign when the Austin scene can kick start the year with solid tunes, particularly as BS has always supplied us with hook-laden vibes that wiggle between indie rock and electronica. On their latest track, “Dead Flowers,” the band are offering up a really solid blend of the two, and while there’s a certain familiarity to the approach, they build in so many light twists and turns that their sound feels freshened. If you pull your ear closely, you can hear the chugging of the guitars in the far-off, allowing them to come up front before they stutter right back into another verse. Plot twists, hooks and grooves? Thanks BS!

A fairly busy week as we got a little more back on routine writing last week, and we were especially excited for all the pop fans out there. New stuff from Jeanines, the Perfect English Weather, Lightheaded, and Lost Film had what cures the ills, and man, were there some special tracks mentioned above. Circled around to hear some Austin, and Austin adjacent stuff with Little Marzarn, BS and former ATX resident Lauren Green and Tan Cologne. Plus, M. Maly gave us a peek at what’s in store for Pscyh Fest, throwing in some coverage with King Hannah being highlighted on the playlist. Plus, great new albums from the Convenience and Mythical Motors rounded the week out properly. What was your fave?
