More New Tunes from The History of Apple Pie

August 29, 2014 nathan.lankford

There’s just something about this band that exudes good times. Earlier in the month I tossed out “Tame,” the first single from the new History of Apple Pie record, but this new one kicks off with even more of a shake to it. There’s a shimmy for listeners, induced by the progression of the chords, while singer Samantha Min coos gently in your ears. But, there’s a nice explosion of pop when you get to the chorus, which is a nice little touch I wasn’t expecting on this track. I feel like you can also hear them channeling Lush a bit, but I guess we’ll all know better when we pick up their new LP, Feel Something, which is out on September 29th via Marshall Teller (no relation to Jacks Teller).

Playful Pop from The History of Apple Pie

July 10, 2014 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Keyboards and synchronized drums open the track before Samantha Min joins in the fray. It’s a solid backbone that provides a playful introduction on the newest single from The History of Apple Pie. They stay in the same gear for the duration of the track, interrupted from time to time by a shimmering guitar line that echoes faintly in the background. It’s a song that wins listeners over with its simple approach to writing catchy pop tunes, and there’s likely to be more of that when the group release their second album, Feel Something, on September 30th via Marshall Teller Records.
