New Single from Trevor Sensor

Leave a comment

trevorI won’t lie to you. Every time I hear Trevor Sensor, I think of Tallest Man on Earth. But, that being said, I still quite like his sound, and having seen him live, he seems to have even more of an edge to his performance and attitude. If you listen closely, you can hear brief moments where he unleashes that attitude just a touch.He also possesses a slightly grim perspective on things; it is the one thing that does set him apart, making his songs worthy of your listening enjoyment. This looks to be a one-off digital single being released by Jagjaguwar on May 27th.

Fresh Moonface and Siinai!

Leave a comment

unnamed-37You can bet that anything that Spencer Krug touches is going to be pretty damn good, so I’m excited to share with you today that Moonface and Siinai have announced a new album and shared a single from said album. The track is called “Risto’s Riff,” and it’s a flurry of driving progressive rock with Krug’s twangy vocals at the center of the mix. While the track sprawls, with its grungey guitars and constant, cymbal crashing and steady percussion, the chorus reels it back in and keeps you jamming right alongside the group. Make sure you take a listen and thatMy Best Human Face, which will be released on June 3rd viaJagjaguwar,is on your radar.

Trevor Sensor Signs To Jagjaguwar!

Leave a comment

unnamed-26It’s really a pleasant surprise when an artist you discover in the trenches of the internet manages to hit it big… I mean, I posted about Trevor Sensor last June,trying to share with you all the Tallest Man on Earth-esque vibes of this youngster and now he’s on the incredible Jagjaguwar lineup. With this news, he’s shared the video below for “Texas Girls and Jesus Christ,” which is a song off of his upcoming debut EP by that same name. It’s a little bluesier than The Tallest Man, and the full band sound that joins him at the end makes for a bar-stomping good time. Take a listen.

Fresh Track From The Besnard Lakes

Leave a comment

besnardWhat is there really to say about The Besnard Lakes, other than that they’ve been around for a little over a decade, making progressive pop music that has become a silent staple in the indie rock world? Well, the band is back with this new single, “The Plain Moon,” which has got a definite New Pornos-vibe going on; there’s a great deal of layering and texture to the song. The guitars are a bit bluesy and growl in the bottom of the mix, while the translucent vocals showcase build on each other, all parts equally distorted. The band’s got a new album due out on January 16th via Jagjaguwar, which is called A Colisuem Complex Museum. You can go preorder it here.

Smooth Synth Pop From Briana Marela

Leave a comment

unnamed-2Chances are slim that you’ve already heard of Seattle-based Briana Marela; she got some attention for the release of her first single, “Surrender” from her upcoming album back in May, but other than that she’s remained somewhat under the radar, though I have a feeling that’s going to change soon. “Take Care of Me,” the song below, is a sonically cool track; when you start listening, you’ll notice off the bat that Marela’s vocals are quite unique and the perfect compliment to the instrumentation.  What this song brings to the table is a sleek blend of electronic elements and ethereal vocals to wrap you in a wispy vortex of sound. Briana Marela is set to release her newest album, All Around Us via Jagjaguwar in a few short weeks on August 21st. Go preorder it here.

Slow Trip with Foxygen

foxyginI love to love and hate Foxygen.  Their first LP was remarkable, so remarkable that when they brought their live debacle of a show to Austin that I had to force myself to walk out (not just go to the bar; I straight up walked out). All that nonsense aside, I’m still quite fascinated with their musicianship.  Just listen to this song; it opens with a carnival-esque freak show before folding into this really simple piece of melodic neo-folk.  There’s two different vocalists, which shouldn’t surprise since the group is taking 9 people on the road as their band (please rehearse!).  Even if ‘I heard they suck live,’ they’re music is still captivating…look for more of it on October 14th when …and Star Power is released by Jagjaguwar.

Lia Ices Brings New Single

Leave a comment

liaicesThings seem to be going well for Lia Ices, at least if you’re catching the buzz from her newest single.  It was all over the Internet last week, and I was a bit reluctant at first due to the odd bit of distorted guitar that cuts through the chorus.  Admittedly, it’s still not my favorite part of the track, but the rest of the song really has an uplifting spirit to it…perfect for the end of summer parties that are coming our way.  This is the latest single from her album Ices, which will have a release date of September 16th via Jagjaguwar.  You want some fun pop? Here you go.

Brand New Sharon Van Etten Music

Leave a comment

sharon_van_etten_1332170904_crop_550x366We’re getting closer to the release date of the new Sharon Van Etten album, Are We There.  It’s one of the most anticipated records, at least over here at the ATH offices.  I mean, can one top Tramp, which was a nearly perfect album?  Based on this track, it looks like she might be ready to take a good go at topping her previous work.  Her guitar work sounds pretty solid here, backed by little bits of piano touches and the strength of her memorable voice. You’ll be able to hear her new collection of songs when Jagjaguwar releases the album on May 27th.
