New Advertisement EP & Single

Seattle based rising band Advertisement had a huge year in 2020 with their debut LP American Advertisement, which received a whole ton of praise from us and a slew of other folks in the music media. Sometimes bands can let the hype get to them and allow their sound to go a bit stagnant, but not the case with this new single “Here it Comes”. No this one shows a band taking their grittier rock sound and naturally growing and maturing into a louder, more full sound with hints of 80s new wave and an infectious, driving style. You will want to check this one out today.

This track is part of Advertisement’s new Freedom EP which is live and streamable today!

Belaver Shares Here It Comes Video

I know we’re supposed to be looking towards next year already, but with great tunes still out there, we’ve got to cover tunes like this one from Belaver, the solo project of BE Godfrey (of listenlisten). Listening through this, it has this sort of trashcan troubadour feel, like Jeffrey Lewis or John W. Coleman; its definitely oriented around big old ballad sounds with hints of that DIY aesthetic and artistry. There’s something nostalgic in his songwriting too, something that brings me back to my college dorm room…and oddly, I find that very comforting as of late. The good tracks are not gone…so be sure to delve into this one.

More Great Tunes from Life in Film

10603538_10153070972063188_5939566581358695693_nUK boys Life in Film gave us news last month that they were planning on a new album this spring that is sure to swoon our ears.  Today I’m pumped to be sharing with you another new track from the upcoming album called “It’s What Happens Next that Matters Most”.  It’s just a bit slower than the upbeat pop the band has given us in the past, but it picks up and turns into a nice little jangly number about half way through.  Enjoy.

Debut album Here it Comes is due out sometime this spring on +1 Records.

Some Pop from Life in Film

artworks-000104111406-lwiw6y-t500x500Many moons ago we shared a single from up and coming UK band Life in Film and it looks like the boys have been rising in fame over the last couple of years.  After giving a listen to their latest single “Get Closer”, one can easily see what the hype is all about.  The song is so damn catchy and infused with pop that I find myself hitting play over and over again every time it finishes.  Simple, yet fun as hell.  Can’t get much better than that.

Life in Film have their debut full length album entitled Here it Comes due out sometime this spring on +1 Records.
