After the success of Germs, Grass Jaw feels like it should be a name on everyone’s tongue, especially as the band prepare for the release of their new album Circles next week. A few of the singles have been put out there, and I wanted to be sure we got this on the radar for everyone, as Brendan Kuntz songwriting gets filed somewhere between David Bazan and David Berman…and that’s something that definitely has my attention. “Circles” is a heavier handed number, carrying with it this weighted darkness, which is noted by both the vocals and the guitar sound. “Excuses” seems to be a bit more forceful, though still hard to pull away from Kuntz melancholy tones. If this is your style, remember, Circles is out officially on June 17th.
