Why Bother Announce You Are Part of the Experiment EP + Share Listen

After churning out a couple of killer LPs last year, Iowa’s Why Bother, the group are set to return with a brand new EP titled You Are Part of the Experiment. We’re pleased to bring you the opening track from the record, but be forewarned, excessive volume is likely to blow through your speakers. Listeners will be treated to some audio samples, and then suddenly, you’re hit with a barrage of buzzsaw guitars; they’re gritty and blown out, giving off the vibe that you’re being chased through the hallways of some insane asylum. Vocals are delivered in a rather disaffected manner; the kind where each lyric is spoken as a matter of fact, but the melodic nature pokes its head out from time to time, like when the line of “I don’t care/I’m not going to listen anymore” is followed by a few syllabic harmonies. If you love to let your speakers live on the edge, turn this one up, then grab the EP from Feel It Records before the April 18th release date!

Elison Share Fruit Flies Single

I love the way the music Elison creates feels like its stuck between two worlds, which is often where I find myself as a listener. Their latest single toys with the more ethereal edges of dream pop, though only in the chorus, allowing the song’s clarity and pop affection to shine in the bubbly verses. You can’t stop tapping your feet, letting your toes dance inside your shoes, lost in the swirling hooks of the melodies here. Still, walking that fine line is where the band seem able to perfect their sound, flirting with listeners who love the dark corners just as much as we love an anthemic hook.
