Last Week’s Jams (4.7 – 4.11)

We covered a shit load of great music last week, and as is likely to happen, we’re a bit all over the place, sonically. There’s definitely a fair share of punk-ish stuff like The Golden Toad and Second Act, but some classic pop acts of days of old have returned. I mean, can we give a shout out for Comet Gain and Brideshead both announcing brand new albums? I premiered a brand new track from Gentle Leader XIV, and RayRay continued with our undying love of new Night Beats. Plus, you can’t go wrong with new Austin stuff from French Film (not streaming) and Mobley, so bopping there as well. Just find a favorite, as you’re bound to find something joyful.

French Film Share Yours

There’s always a lot going on in the Austin scene, but one of the acts we’ve been keeping up with on our end is French Film, who’ve just dropped a Cassingle via our friend Trish’s Nothing Song Records. I can certainly hear how folks would like to lump them into the dreamier realms of indie rock, especially if you take on this single’s latter half. But, absorb the front-end of the tune, as it completely embraces the punk ethos, drawing my personal tastes deep into the track. It’s interesting, as I can hear some of the anthemic rapture that recalls Pretty Girls Make Graves (though they just played here so my mind is on that!). Maybe they’re dreamy and punk, and maybe it doesn’t matter if you’ve got tunes like the one below.
