New Jam from Culture Abuse

caNot too long ago I tossed up the first Culture Abuse track from their forthcoming album, but they’ve just put this one out into the ether. I love the immediacy of the song, hitting hard from the minute you press play. It might be hard to hear, but there’s this guitar line in the middle of the mix that ties the album into pop sensibility, while the energy leans toward the angst-ridden side of indie rock. It’s a tightrope walk, but one that I’ll gladly take. Look for the band’s debut, Peach, on April 18th via 6131 Records.

Punchy Pop from Culture Abuse

cultureDidn’t want to dwell too much on the softer, ethereal side of the musical world today, so wanted to make sure my last contribution was a good little bit of pop rock…courtesy of Culture Abuse. The San Fran band is preparing to release their debut album, Peach, and this should definitely give those in the garage rock circle something to be excited about; it packs a punch while filling your ears with some hooks. Look for the record on April 6th via 6131 Records.
