Last Week’s Jams (10.7 – 10.11)

We crushed the coverage last week; we had some ACL coverage as well as some Sigur Ros notes from their Austin show. But, we also covered a solid 28 tracks, 26 of which made the cut on our Last Week’s Jams (the new Boyracer and Rocky Lorelei can only be found on the site). A new track from the Serfs is still living rent-free in my brain, while I discovered just how much I’m enjoying Kim Deal‘s new solo stuff. That doesn’t even scratch the surface, as there were several Texas’ acts like Pets and Trauma Ray getting some new jams out. I will admit, perhaps I overdid it, but eh, you love the new stuff right? Cool. Stream it then.

Dustin James Shares Paper Star

As we draw nearer the Winter season, we’re all likely looking for music to hibernate to, music you can wrap around you and find warmth and solace. Today, that music has come early, by way of Dustin James; he’s released the first single and title track from the forthcoming Paper Star LP. There are overlapping guitar lines, one sort of like a journeying leaf, floating through the stream of strumming that holds the track together; they intermingle, dancing and swirling together atop a quieted beat. James’ vocals, too, feel like a rolling seasonal change, hanging on the edge of the cold, beckoning to come inside and sit by the fire. Paper Star drops on October 22nd.
