Stuck on This Hurry Tune

Leave a comment

There’s something so pure about the perfectly executed pop ditty that I find it hard to turn such tracks off, just like the Hurry tune below. There’s nothing heavy about it, and in fact, it seems the volume on distortion is perfectly balanced by the usage of acoustic guitar. Cascading guitar lines work their way throughout, cut in half by these rad little vocal harmonies; it’s like listening the greatness of Nada Surf being played with a youthful vibrance. The band’s new album, Every Little Thought, will be released on February 23rd via Lame-O Records.

Another Tune from Walter Etc

Leave a comment

The last time we touched on a single from Walter Etc, I was raving about the bands infectious guitar pop. This single illustrates a slightly different approach to the band’s sound, though every bit as endearing as their first tune. It’s built on a nice little piano backbone with steady drum emphasis and strummed guitar. You’ll probably hear folks throwing some Dr. Dog references around, but you add a horn or two and you have that Beulah vibe (something I sorely miss in the world). The group will release Gloom Cruise on August 25th via Lame O/Lauren Records.

Cherry Release New Video

Leave a comment

It doesn’t take much more than being signed to Lame-O Records for me to be attached to a band. But, in the case of Cherry and their latest song, they’ve already got me hooked. The video is gritty, moving across various mundane activities (though I’m attached to the backyard soccer scene) and splicing it with members of the band. Also, it has dogs. People love dogs. In the track itself you hear earnest guitar pop, with guitar lines reaching up to the angular heavens as the drums crash down and vocals drawl across the front of the mix. It’s sonically focused, yet relaxed in the delivery…all showing promise of the band’s forthcoming record, Dumbness, out on September 29th.

Solid Guitar Pop from Walter Etc

Leave a comment

If infectious guitar pop is your cup of tea, then I’m promising you joy when you listen to this new Walter Etc track. It kind of reminds me of our own Growl, leaving pop hooks at the front of the song while distorted guitars ring out in the distance. I particularly enjoy the chorus, as it doesn’t seem rushed, coming naturally with the rhythm of the song. Plus, it’s a short little blast of fun, so you get to enjoy it and return to play it again. Gloom Cruise will be out on August 25th via Lame O Records/Lauren Records.

Walter Etc. Offer Up Slick New Track

Leave a comment

Those in the mood for some slacker style rock this morning need look no further than this new single “April 41st” from L.A. based Walter Etc. It reminds me a lot of an old school Weezer song with a carefree, almost lackadaisical feel about it. Could be a great song for driving around on a summer day or for your next BBQ playlist. Check it out below.

This track appears on an upcoming album entitled Gloom Cruise which is out August 25th on vinyl via Lauren Records/Lame-O Records and on cassette via Making New Enemies.

New Hit from Dominic Angelella

Leave a comment

dominicIt looks like we’re heading towards the end of the year with a whole bunch of great guitar pop, which seems to be what I’ve been digging lately. This time around we’ve got the new single from Dominic Angelella; he’s offering up a style that seems to hold true to troubadours of every musical cycle, though there’s more punch in his guitar. It’s a hook-laden track for sure, but I can feel the groove blasting through my speakers over the smoky vocals. This track appears on his next record, Goodnight, Doggies, which hits on February 3rd via Lame-O Records.

New Music from Dominic

Leave a comment

dominicDominic Angelella is a jack of all trades, working as a touring musician for various acts, namely mewithoutyou, but also does a great deal of studio work. Here we find him working his own magic, bringing in a classic songwriting structure with a few extra layers to fill out the sound. His voice is steady, though the tones remind me a little of Jason Lytle, while the music revolves around guitar and structured drumming; it’s emphatic in all the right places, with Dominic even pushing his voice when necessary. He’s just announced his debut, Goodnight, Doggies, which comes out on February 3rd via Lame-O Records.

Fun Pop from The Pooches

Leave a comment

poochesThis new release from The Pooches is shaping up to be quite exciting, seemingly filled with fun pop tunes that seem destined to be played on repeat around my house. There’s a familiarity to the sound, be it the precision drum work, guitar solo or just the chilled vocal delivery. Something about this track just screams carefree good times, and seeing as it’s the last few weeks of summer, perhaps we could all use a little bit of that in our lives (I know I sure could). Looking forward to their self-titled album on Lame O Records, which is being released on September 9th.
