TVOD Back With Another Hit

April 8, 2025 RayRay Leave a comment

Brooklyn based outfit TVOD were a band that really impressed with tons of energy and noise during SXSW a couple of weeks ago. Maybe even top band of the week? At least in the Top 5 for sure. Making such an impression will of course cause us to hopefully return the effort put in while in Austin, so we had to share the band’s new song “Pool House” today. It’s maybe a slightly paired down and more chill vibe than previous singles, but I love the pos-punk feeling, guitar tone, and overall bouncy melody throughout. Dig it.

TVOD will release this track as part of their new album Party Time, which is due out May 9th on Mothland. Pre-order that sucker now.

Premiere: Hot Garbage – Mystery

November 21, 2023 RayRay Leave a comment

We’re about to head into a short holiday break, but before we do, here’s a jam by Toronto based Hot Garbage for you to check out during your down time. The new track, “Mystery”, feels like it might have fit in during spooky October season with a swirling, gothic organ and deep, heavy guitar riffs. This sound comes with the slightest hint of a surf rock inspiration to give the song a touch of lightness and playfulness here and there. It’s a jam for sure. Gobble gobble.

This track will appear on the upcoming Hot Garbage album entitled Precious Dreams due out January 19th via Mothland. Pre-orders are live now.

La Securite Share Hot Topic Video

Contrary to popular thought, the latest track from Montreal’s La Securite is not actually about your revered mall outlet. Instead, it’s a proper piece meant to score the incredible dance routine that has been edited down to feature in this film version. From the moment you’re pressing play, the dancers and the song are pulsing, claiming the space as their very own, both physical and musical. Eliane snakes around ringing guitar notes and synthetic stabs, delivering a sharp indifference to the world around the dancers and the singer. Pulsating punk elements mixed with dancefloor ready grooves make Stay Safe something to keep on your radar; it drops tomorrow via Mothland.

La Securite Share Serpent Video

Felt like during the middle of the week we need to switch up our shoes and get a little midweek groove on, and what better way than the subtle hooks of Montreal’s La Securite. Where it would be easy to add the pace and really push folks onto the dancefloor, this bunch pull back, letting the rhythmic pulse guide the listener while the vocals flirt with that dreamy-disco intoxication. Lurking inside is this pseudo-chorus that feels like a riot-girl call to arms, adding in just enough grit to keep those rockist snobs on the hook. Look for Stay Safe on June 16th via Mothland.
