Last Week’s Jams (4.28 – 5.2)

One third of the year is behind us now, and so we’re getting towards that moment when arbitrary best of 2025 lists began to pop up, but we’re keeping our eyes on the prize, focusing on new music, however it comes. There were some definite bonus tunes coming our way, like new Stereolab, as they prep for their forthcoming LP. Slumberland continued their great 2025 by announcing a new Autocamper LP (along with Safe Suburban Home). Personally, I was really excited to hear that Far Caspian has a new one on the way, as I loved the single shared this week. Perennial favorite acts also dropped new singles, so you’ll hear ditties from The High Water Marks, the Beths, Provoker and the Serfs. Give a little listen and start making your own mid-year list!

Century of Ecstasy Redo Black Hole

You might have heard a bit of “Black Hole” if you checked out the 2020 EP, The Depth, from Swedish project Century of Ecstasy, but if you didn’t, you’re in luck as Joakim Persson has opted to go back and put some proper finishing touches on the tune. Ultimately, the tune has turned into this mellowed bit of psychedelic pop music, sort of wiggling its way in and out of your consciousness. It all rides on this meandering guitar line, carefully snaking its way in and out the empty space in the tune, letting Persson’s vocals sort of crest and ride on the top of the mix. It’s a nice little slice of sweetness to carry you on your way today.
