Last Week’s Jams (8.19 – 8.23)

Well folks, I’m back in the game full time, teaching, coaching and all that jazz. So, I didn’t hit my previous mark of nearly 30 songs in a week. But, we still had some really great stuff on the site, so it’s organized below in its usual playlist fashion. One of the best group’s in the game, Feeling Figures, bounced out with a rad new single, plus our old pal Caroline Says also announced her first LP in some years. We gave a shout out to some great records by Fake Fruit, Chime School, Hits and more (and yes, I missed Wut and the Softies). Oh, and new jams from UV-TV and High Water Marks closed out the week, so I guess you could say, it was a pretty good time!

It Thing Share Persian Rug Single

Today the ladies are belting it out; we had UV-TV and Rose earlier, and now the howling pipes from Charlotte Gigi keep me coming back to this fresh tune from Melbourne’s It Thing. Upon a few run throughs, I’ve decided that this track is definitely a war between the discordant ringing of the guitars and Gigi’s voice; they have this sparring swirl, almost like a call-and-response between one another. It gives the song a natural tension that allows for the track to seduce the listener whilst it carefully moves towards its quick finish. A pretty special opening track from their new Spirit Level EP, out next week via Marthouse Records.
