Last Week’s Jams (2.10 – 2.14)

It started off a little slow and strange, but those keeping their eye on the prize knew we’d be in for a crazy end to the week, as there were releases dropping left and right. We skipped the album cycle to mostly focus on fresh singles, though we gave nods to records that came our way by the likes of Frog, Horsegirl, JJ Sweetheart and a few more. They’ve all got some great individual tracks in this great playlist, but we’re starting you off with Lowmoon‘s new jam, which is the perfect nostalgic bit of dream pop, which then moves right into Club 8‘s most recent banger. Some longer tunes rom Echo Delay, Cross Record and Consumables are within, but we tried to balance that out with some little joys. Also, don’t forget to check out Michael Maly’s review of the recent MJ Lenderman set at Emos!

Echo Delay Give You A Moment of Joy

There are a lot of really great albums coming out this week, and for me, the one that’s probably sliding under your radar is this new LP from Denmark’s Echo Delay. They’re playing with psychedelic tropes, particularly in the first minute of guitar noodling here. But, then while that aura maintains the status quo, the vocals come into play as a kind of quieted public speech; they’re seemingly spoken, rather than sung, with some vocal effects creating this disorienting gloriousness you’ll dive right into. So, if slow burning psychedelia seems to be your thing, sneak around through the caverns of The Second Bardo and you’ll be sure to uncover treasures!
