Last Week’s Jams, Today (12.6 – 12.10)

Leave a comment

It’s weird that the musical year sort of just stops once everyone puts out their year-end lists, but since that’s the case, this week’s playlist is just a mere 13 jams to get you through the week. It might also be the last playlist of jams we put up in 2021; if everyone’s taking off then I am too, dammit! But, there’s a lot of jams to be had in this list, like the opening jam from Artsick. Plus, you get some new Austin love from Blushing and A. Sincliar, then a few hits from Japanese acts like Merry Christmas and Nicfit. Whatevers, indulge yourself.

Merry Christmas Share the Flying Trombone Sisters

Leave a comment

If you haven’t heard of Tokyo’s Merry Christmas, might I suggest visiting their recent album The Night the Night Fell. They follow up that release with a new version of an old track, “The Flying Trombone Sisters.” I’ll be honest, this tune brings back all the old memories, listening to bands like Beulah and Architecture and Helsinki where they incorporate horns and frantic energy into the Elephant 6 sound popularized by Neutral Milk Hotel; it kind of sounds like a bastarized version of Arcade Fire, which only makes them all the cooler in my book. Give it some spins my friends.

Christmas Pop from Rat Fancy

Leave a comment

ratAfter leaving behind Sweater Girl, Diana Barraza began Rat Fancy, leaning towards creating a world where indiepop, shoegaze and emo all crash in a joyous bit of infectious pop music. The group are in the process of wrapping up their debut EP for HHBTM Records, so in the meantime, they’re giving out the free Christmas single you’ll find streaming below. You’ll hear hooks, jingle bells and attention to details that will leave you salivating for what the band have in store for us all in 2017. If you’re inclined, visit the band’s BANDCAMP to grab these single for free…then sneak them into your parent’s holiday playlist, so everyone else can enjoy your good tastes.

 


Merry Christmas Or Whatever

ATH Xmas 13Did you get that Flexi-7″ from your favorite band? Did your parents discover the mp3 player on QVC? Did you make something cool for your friend, like a Willie bandana with pigtails?

Did you listen to obscure or obtuse Christmas records? I just found out Erasure made a Christmas record. It has some strange stuff on it.

Is your dog holding up to yelling nieces or nephews? Perhaps pouting in the kitchen ready for a visit from the Meat Fairy?

Are these a few of your favorite things?

Anyway, whether or not you celebrate the day, be Merry. We love you.
