Last Week’s Jams (6.3 – 6.7)

Pretty heavy week we had over on the ATH here. The Bay Area and Austin area had some great tunes to offer us, such as new stuff from Sad Eyed Beatniks and Holy Wire, or perhaps Swiftumz and Letting Up Despite Great Faults. We also got to preview some great shows like Adrianne Lenker and The Umbrellas (that was a blast btw!). Plus, Cursive return after a few years off, so of course the site’s emo contingent was keeping you up to date there. Then there were Nathan faves like Icarus Phoenix, Quivers and Azure Blue, all of whom offered us up new tunes. Tons to enjoy below.

Maria Kohnke Returns with State of Confusion

Although we’ve been sprinkled with singles here and there, Danish singer Maria Kohnke has put music on the side while she focused on other creative outlets. But, in 2024, we’ve been promised a new EP, with this driving new single set to kick it all off. Pressing play, you won’t be able to deny the rhythmic pulse that’s rushing the song forward, using these various guitar textures to create this darkened pop that could easily accompany your favorite chase scene. Personally, the shuffling drum work beneath the groove is where I’m at; listen closely and you’ll be able to catch the tiny little machine gun hits that operate outside the main beat. All of this is a dense landscape to lurk in the shadows with this softened vocal you’ll be naturally drawn towards.
