Last Week’s Jams (1.20 – 1.24)

Leave a comment

Seems like this year so far, it’s been one step forward and two steps back, but feel like I got locked in during this short week, allowing me to get a solid bit of rock n’ roll out from underneath my inbox. We had a lot of Austin stuff to go through…MIEN, Gus Baldwin, Edith Frost, Skloss, Midcard…and maybe we consider Cross Record still! Lots of other new things popped up including the latest from Accessory and the Golden Dregs, which were to of my favorite tracks we go under. Several of the jams are some slow-burns, so take your time and enjoy the rock around you.

Jo Passed Drops Weekend

2 comments

It’s been quite some times since Jo Passed dropped any new music…and to be fair, the song today is one of, if not THE, first Jo Passed song. That said, the tune’s had its own journey, finally being reimagined after its initial creation in order to prep audiences for a fresh record on the way. Throughout, the jam walks a fine line between soft-spoken narrative and moody rocker; it’s that balance that sets up repeat listens as you get to ride the crests and falls of the tune as it blasts in all the right spots. Plus, there’s some fun musicianship that indicates we’re in for a real treat when that new album comes to light!

Pop Oddity from Jo Passed

Leave a comment

jopaMy first run through this new track from Jo Passed, I wasn’t quite sure what to make of it. At times, the tune seems like it’s out of whack, like some parts aren’t quite working together, yet that seems to be the magic of the work being constructed by Joseph Hirabayashi, the man behind the project. On this new single, he seemingly finds his own patterns within his songs, changes directions and throws down layers upon layers. It might not seem like your normal fare, and that’s the brilliance of the song. He’ll be releasing the UP EP via Golden Brown come this July.
