My New Discovery: The Tuts

September 24, 2015 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

I’m always following my favorite artists and labels to try and discover new bands that won’t end up on every other web site…I like you guys to get a little differentiation. With that in mind, that’s why I’m bringing this UK outfit, The Tuts. Below you’ll find their latest single, and I hope you’ll give it a stream or two. It reminds me a lot of female-fronted college rock from the late 90s, but it definitely has the playfulness that accompanies modern acts like Childbirth. In the end, the songs from this group are great, so I encourage you to discover my discovery, fall in love then thank me later.

Childbirth Go Sinister For Their Second Single

August 20, 2015 nicole.baumann Leave a comment

When I shared this first single with you from Childbirth, I dug it, don’t get me wrong, but I was slightly apprehensive as to how this punk/ ultra lo-fi sound would transmit to other styles of songs. With this new track, “Let’s Be Bad” these ladies have completely erased the doubts from my mind. This song is a creeping, twisted, sinister sounding punk track that slowly evolves into a raging fireball of rock as the lyrics ironically urge us to do seemingly ‘bad’ things… like splitting dessert and ordering white wine . Now I’m properly excited for the release of Women’s Rights out on Suicide Squeeze Records on October 2nd.

Ultra Lo-Fi/ Punk From Childbirth

July 10, 2015 nicole.baumann Leave a comment

If you’re looking for pretty and clean girl pop then you’ve come to the wrong post. Childbirth is a supergroup comprised of members from Chastity Belt, Tacocat and Pony Time and word on the street is that they’re coming back with their sophomore record, Women’s Rights which is due October 2nd on Suicide Squeeze Records. This single from that record is called “Nasty Grrls,” and features perfectly imperfect punk vocals that chime in and out of the mix enumerating the rough edges and habits of these nasty gurlz while the guitars are fuzzy and lo-fi. The whole track will lodge itself into your brain for hours if you’re not careful, but maybe that’s a good thing. Get nasty with these ladies.
