New Music from Cass McCombs

Leave a comment

I feel like Cass McCombs is an artist I consistently take for granted, though I’ll admit to owning several pieces of his work; he seems to pop up in the quiet times in the industry and just deliver these powerhouse ballads. For instance today, he dropped a track with a steady little strum driving the track forward; there’s a snappy rhythm section behind it too, giving energy to the tune while the vocals would seem to be floating in the outer realms. He also has these tonal vocal switches that remind me of the magic of Sufjan, taking a kind of calm delivery and turning into something more ethereal. But, don’t ignore the nuance in the tune, as that’s what makes Cass’ work special; there was this cymbal build I heard that I thought was going to smash through the roof, only to get pulled back. Looking forward to hearing Interior Live Oak, out in August via Domino.

Spinning Coin Share Get High Video

Leave a comment

When listening through the entirety of Spinning Coin‘s new Hyacinth LP, I found myself gravitating towards this tune quite a bit. Sure, there’s these uplifting guitar riffs that seem poppy and jittery, but the vocals had this gruffness that sort of offered up a rough edge from the band; they splice in a sort of operatic backing vocal that breaks up the weight of the lead too, which adds the faintest hint of musical texture. It’s the sort of little details that makes the whole of the LP enduring, bridging the gaps between various genres and styles, crafting a hodgepodge of sounds that rewards time and time again. Hyacinth should be picked up from your local shoppe on Friday, or buy it from Domino!

More From Night Moves

Leave a comment

As Night Moves prepare to release their new album Can You Really Find Me later this month, the band is dropping more new music in anticipation. Today the boys sent over this new track “Recollections” which is more of a mellow, slow grooving song when compared to previously released banger “Strands Align”. The track is helping to set up what will surely be on the best, and most well balanced albums of the year.

Can You Really Find Me hits streets on June 28th via Domino.

Spinning Coin Share New Video

Leave a comment

Today is the day! Spinning Coin‘s new album, Permo, officially hits the streets. In honor of the release, the band have dropped a new video for “Money for Breakfast,” which is one of the album’s standout tunes. I think it really highlights the casual pop vibes the group have created on this effort…a sound that leans more towards Aussie pop tropes of late, as opposed to the band’s hometown of Glasgow. You can also stream the whole new LP today right HERE, and then you’ll hopefully realize this is a batch of songs you need in your record collection; it’s available today from Domino!

A Challenge From John Maus

Leave a comment

Do you like your pop music quirky? You anti-synths? You want to hear what happens when electronic foundations are slightly shaken to provide flourishes of syncopation from analog devices? It really is the break at around the two minute mark and instrumental bits that follow that won me, so hang in if on the fence.

Just check out this track from John Maus. The new record, Screen Memories, lands 10/27 on Domino. It can be ordered individually or as part of a six LP box.

Spend Some Time with New King Creosote Video

Leave a comment

KingCreosote460I’m a sucker for all things King Creosote, be it his work in conjunction with other artists like Jon Hopkins, scoring soundtracks or his own work, he’s an artist I won’t hesitate to indulge. Today he released this beautiful video for the newest single on his forthcoming album, Astronaut Meets Appleman. Everything about this track, from the video to the recording has me completely sucked in; I love the slight little bit of buzz from the guitar strings as they’re strummed. His continued expansion with string arrangements broadens the song, and although I wished for a one more vocal verse, I still found myself lost within the confines of the tune. The new LP will be out via Domino in September!

Can’t Resist This Pop Punk From White Lung

Leave a comment

unnamed-34White Lung are on the way to releasing a new album in May, and while they’re in the lead up to said album, they’ve given us two new singles. The second of which, I am glad to share with you today, is called “Kiss Me When I Bleed” and is a little over two minutes of high-energy pop punk. The song features such excellent lyrics as “I will give birth in a trailer/huffing the gas in the air” and the vocals are this twisted and distorted mix of sinister edge, adding the perfect compliment to the screaming guitars and bombastic percussion. Their upcoming record, Paradise, is out May 6th via Domino Records.

 

Too Good Not To Post: Another New Track From Porches

Leave a comment

unnamed-20So Porches have done it again, but are you really that surprised? The internet was buzzing with praise for this band after their video/single for “Be Apart,” graced us with synth pop goodness, but they’re taking it in a slightly different direction with “Car,” which is another single off of their upcoming record, Pool.This track shows a different side to the band, more along the lines of indie rock with synth influence. I’m digging the jangle of the distorted guitar that undercuts the whole mix as well as the distinct lead vocals that command the song. Take a listen if you haven’t already and be sure to order Pool, out later this week on February 5th, from Domino Records.

Slightly Late To The Party: Dance-Ready Synth-Pop From Porches

Leave a comment

12186319_879335592142005_9194046950894279595_oYou may have seen this video from Porches already, as it debuted sometime last week, but just in case you missed it, I’m here to help you out. Word on the street is that we’re fast approaching a new album from Porches, and on the way to Pool, which is out February 5th via Domino Records, we’ve been graced with a video for this latest single, “Be Apart.” Heavy synths make up the majority of the soundscape and the light vocals juxtapose nicely with the poundingsynths. It’s got a great rhythm that’ll have you bobbing your head in the beginning and by the end of the track you’ll probably be halfway across the room, shaking your ass properly. Watch below and jump into the present with us.
