Eades Return With Loose Ciff’s Edge

Leave a comment

Leeds based starlets Eades have been gracing the pages of this here site for well on 4-5 years with more praise and song postings than I care to count. Since their last Delusion Spree LP from 2022, we hadn’t heard much from the band so we we’re of course excited when this new track “Loose Cliff’s Edge” came across the submission’s desk. This one is all about that slow build across 4 minutes of an epic rise towards an eventual giant, rock n roll payoff. You’ll love it.

Eades will release this track as part of a new EP entitled Fight or Flight due out August 30th on Bam Bam Records

Late to the Party: Crumbs

Leave a comment

Our friends over at Skep Wax sent us an early listen to Crumbs a few weeks back, but in being up-front, it got buried at the bottom of the emails that I just finally made my way through; I knew it would be good, so I suppose my brain wasn’t in a rush! We’ve got two great tracks you should turn up, with both really having this stomping bit of drum work that’s totally driving my adoration of their sound. That thump gets counteracted by the group’s guitar work, knifing its way in with a sharp twist that guarantees punk sounds will live on here. If Ruth’s vocal performance doesn’t fit the icing on the cake cliche, well, then perhaps you’ve got bad taste. Crumbs will release You’re Just Jealous on May 10th via the aforementioned Skep Wax.

Great Pop Ditty from English Teacher

Leave a comment

We’ve all been diving into the vibe of English Teacher over here at ATH, and I really can’t say enough great things about the newest single, “Nearly Daffodils.” The song’s centered on this natural movement, but while I’ve heard other acts go into pure post-punk mode, this lot take that vibe and mute it a little bit, allowing more hints of melody to poke through the holes. For me, this elevates the charm, but still leaves plenty of room for bite, which you get at the 2:41 mark, reminiscent of a great Screaming Females song, and then it locks back into the groove. Definitely a great way to start your morning.

Lovely New Tune From English Teacher

Leave a comment

While Leeds United languish in The Championship this year, locals have to find a way to stay in good spirits and put a positive spin on things. While I honestly have no clue if the Leeds based outfit English Teacher follow the football club, their new song, “The World’s Biggest Paving Slab,” has offered me a beacon of hope for the area. It displays a level of brightness and light paired with just a few touches of edge here and there to really keep in tune with that Leeds’ spirit. Come on lads.

This new track is out now via the band’s new label Island Records.

Nervous Twitch Share We Don’t Care

Leave a comment

When we first heard new Nervous Twitch, I was impressed at how the band opened up their style, letting the first single come up as a slow-burn pop rock ballad. But, this new single is frantic, gritty, and hook-laden like a motorcycle gang rolling through with a bunch of balloons and streamers attached to their bikes. Erin Hyde’s delivery definitely has a bit of an old school punk nod to it, hanging on to a certain coyness that makes the lyrical delivery feel like you’re bouncing off the walls. The group will release their new Some People Will Never Change via Reckless Yes on October 7th.

New Tune From English Teacher

Leave a comment

On a day that more resembles a cloudy and windy day in the UK than our actual home of Austin, it seems like a fitting day to share a tune from Leeds based outfit English Teacher. This new tune “Mental Maths” features a sort of frantic, almost sloppy yet beat driven sound with some really timely and engaging vocals. All Leeds aren’t we!English Teacher will be releasing this track on their upcoming debut EP entitled Polyawkward due out on April 22nd via Nice Swan Records.

 

Crake Share Bobbie Single

Leave a comment

Fika Recordings latest signing, Crake, have just dropped another single from their new LP, and dammit if I’m not stuck on the chorus of this song. Rowan Sandle has this distinctive voice, bordering on the highest of notes, though approached with heavy tones simultaneously; it’s a beautifully dizzying. But, this song really hits home when it hits the 48 second mark, turning into this beautiful stretch of understated melody, riding back into the next verse ever so casually. I dare you to listen through this whole song and not be charmed by the group’s offering; I’m totally awestruck by how much joy I’ve been able to extract from this track…so soothing. Their album, Human’s Worst Habits, will be out on May 25th via Fika.

Eades Drop Backseat Politic

Leave a comment

Friday, Eades will drop their much anticipated Delusion Spree LP, and to be honest, there aren’t a whole lot of folks just bringing energetic pop rock this good. From the get go, the drums roll you down the river, pounding while notes jangle their way through your speakers. The chorus celebrates euphorically, sounding as if they got the whole gang together to sing along joyously in one big old barroom. I’d take a million jams as fun and strong as what Eades are kicking out, and luckily I’ll get a solid 12 to turn up nice and loud when the album drops on Friday courtesy of Heist or Hit.

Beautiful Tune From elkyn

Leave a comment

Hey it’s finally fall here in Austin so it seems like the perfect time to deliver some fall themed music for this break in the heat! Josephy Donnelly, the Leeds based musician who records under the moniker elkyn, is usually in a cooler climate and his music tends to reflect those dark, dreary, and mellow vibes of his city/country. His latest tune, “found the back of the tv remote”, is a slow moving folk inspired tune which can be sometimes melancholic but also uplifting at the same time. It’s a lush tune with tons of layers to unpack.

The song is out now via Tambourine Machine Records.
