Last Week’s Jams, Today (6.13 – 6.17)

Well, we wrote up at least 25 fresh tracks last week, many of which we purposefully tried to make sure weren’t on all the other cool kid sites. That also might be why we missed a few that you’d expect us to cover. It was great to hear Cool Sounds taking some new risks for their new LP, plus we made sure we had that new Mary Onettes tune right up there. And, our old friends Big Bill dropped a new record, so we wanted to remind you of their gifts…and then, there were loads of other songs, meant to get you through those early Monday morning blues without having to think too much about what you’re listening to all day…just know it’ll be good.

Hallan Share New Banger

Portsmouth based outfit Hallan just dropped this new single called “Sich Ubergeben” today and I had to share it with the ATH fam. It features this sort of old school, Brit post-punk sound clearly inspired by the likes of older Artic Monkeys or even say Kaiser Chiefs. For me, it’s a nice kick in the chest today amongst some of the more poppy or mellow tracks floating around the webs this week. I hope you’ll give it a a listen and maybe say high to the band on their social media platforms (IG, Facebook, Twitter). “Sich Ubergeben” is available on all streaming platforms via Nice Swan Records.
