Last Week’s Jams (9.23 – 9.27)

Leave a comment

We’re drawing towards the end of the year, and while that means arbitrary musical lists of things, what it also means is that we’ve got a few more records hanging out to enjoy before the year is up. Personally, there were some great new songs from trauma ray, EggS and the Wickies, which indicated that these acts have a lot of promise to deliver. Best Bets dropped their latest LP, which was on our radar, not to mention the new release from Being Dead and Feeling Figures. Loved the introduction to Coldwave, and it never hurts to wrap up the end of the week with new music from Constant Follower!

Curling Drop New Single

Leave a comment

Admittedly, this new Curling single’s been out for a week or so, but there’s definitely no reason to skip over this striking A side single, and it’s accompanying B-side. Their style on this single hits at sort of a mixture of softened indie rock, though spun with a certain sense of longing that’s super thrilling; there’s something about it that feels very late 90s, like a lot of bands stepping out of those post-emo shadows into more ornate indie rock. Listen for those really crisp high notes that span throughout various moments on the track, and each time it hits, I’m just crushed. The new single comes at you via Royal Oakie.

Last Week’s Jams (2.5 – 2.9)

We had a windows down car drive end to the week, so here we are looking at all the hits we covered in the last week. There were a few jams like the new single from Gentleman Jesse or the Pheromoans latest that aren’t anywhere on DPS, but we’ve got tons of other jams from the week. I really loved the new bops from Johnnie Carwash, Icarus Phoenixand Flowertown, while Ray snuck in some new Mini Trees and Acid Tongue. Plus, we tried to suggest you take listens to new LPs from Itasca, David Nance, Dead Bandit and Pylon Reenactment Society, so if anything, sample a tune here and there from the new records. Get in and drive with Last Week’s Jams.

Curling Ready Deluxe No Guitar Edition

Leave a comment

No Guitar came out in the latter half of last year, but it seems like Curling weren’t entirely happy with that, as they’re now prepping a deluxe edition courtesy of Royal Oakie. This new edition offers a few instrumentals and a single edit of “Shamble,” which we’ve got down below. When this rendition kicks off, there’s this swell of vibrant sunbeams. But, roll those windows down, get in your car and go for a drive, because the track drops right into classic power pop, letting sharp guitar riffs twinkle and twist in the wind. Those melodic vocals are definitely there to carry the track, and the huge wall behind only sets you up for the perfect swoon. If you’re digging, the No Guitar Deluxe Edition is out March 1st.

Last Week’s Jams (7.17 – 7.21)

We’re still in the middle of a great year of music, and as we hit that sweet spot, there seem to be more tracks coming out every day; we try to cover as much as we can, but admittedly, we’re not perfect! It was really nice to see Emma Anderson of Lush pop her head up with a brand new track from her forthcoming solo LP. Personally, I loved that new Pachyman jam, as that guy rules and I’m totally hoping everyone catches on to his vibe. A little Austin love for Holy Wave who continue to impress with the sounds of their new LP. Then there’s old ATH faves like Pia Fraus and Tan Cologne, plus the Who Is She supergroup making the cut too. Browse, stream, enjoy.

Curling Share Patience Single

Leave a comment

Curling is a band that seems hard to define with simple genre tags like shoegaze or even post-emo. While these lads certainly have some of those elements in their sound, they also can hit you with some heavy crescendos, loud guitars, and what I might consider classic rock at times. This new single “Patience” seems to embody this vibe incredible well and I suggest you check it out below.

“Patience” is part of a new Curling album entitled No Guitar due out August 11th. Pre-orders are live now.

New Single from Curling

Leave a comment

The music that’s being created by Curling reminds me of my late adolescence, a time spent jamming discordant emo via Jade Tree for a great part of my years. It’s precisely what this group offer on their new single, though they’ve managed to spin in a modern fashion. I like the contrast crafted between the instrumentation and the vocals; it seems like the song’s going to be a pummeling number, but the softness of the voice pulls it back every so slightly. And once the vocals are over, the song blasts off into melodic discord. Their new record, Definitely Band, drops on August 3rd.
