Last Week’s Jams (10.9 – 10.13)

We’re getting to that point when everyone is scrambling to find their favorite tracks, find their favorite collection of songs to put into those fruitful lists that you’ll all look at, then claim to hate! We do it too! Still, covered a bunch of great new music last week. There were great new tunes from Red Pants and Teenage Tom Petties, plus we got to celebrate a really busy release week with stuff from Lightheaded and Upchuck, among others. Our friend Jared Leibowich had a new tune up, but it didn’t make it onto the DPSs yet, so be sure to circle back and check on that one. There’s a couple of long-burns too, from Native Cats, a Beacon School and the Uptights, all worthy of some deep listening. Stream on!

Juicebumps Share Edging in Heaven

If you’re looking towards a Friday purchase, might I suggest checking out the new LP from Juicebumps. On this last track, the band seem to be exploring the artier side of post-punk, with an edge cutting into the craft via sharp guitars sputtering atop spoken lyrical lines that are traded back and forth between vocalists. It feels frantic and teasingly playful, particularly when the horns slide in to match up with the giggling bass groove. JUMBO is dropping this Friday via Rocks in Your Head Record, and if it gets executed as thoughtfully in step as this one, we’re going to have a whole lotta fun.
