The Slow Summits Offer Dream On

Leave a comment

I wanted to keep true with the pop feels this morning, and Sweden’s The Slow Summits is the perfect little treat to keep the mood right in the morning. Those of you who love acts like Cats on Fire or the Luckmsiths are going to find this track super exciting, as the dulcet vocal tones carry that majesty at the core, and while the caramelized melody works its magic, the rest of the band adds a solid bit of energetic kick. Pulling your ear into the first verse, you’ll hear these quick cymbal hits, marching the tune forward. But, what I love about things is that they switch the approach in the middle of the tune, turning it into a slightly different direction so it doesn’t take on that formulaic feel. It’s fresh, and just a taste of Every Intention, which drops on July 4th via Subjangle.

New Jam from Culture Abuse

Leave a comment

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.
