Mo Troper Drops Another Pop Nugget: Stream For You to Sing

Leave a comment

We’re barely removed from the release of MTV in the Fall of last year, but Mo Troper never seems to slow-down, and why would he? His latest effort has this intertwining bit of guitar weaving this quilt of glam, lo fi and crunchy indie rock; it’s almost a stomper, with tons of classic guitar flare hitting the high notes. Mo’s distinctive voice shines brightly from the textured mix of rock n’ roll, like a beacon of light guiding you along the path of rock n’ roll pleasure. Word on the street is this tune will feature on Mo’s next great record; it’s going to great. Track available courtesy of Lame-O Records.

Mo Troper Shares The Only Living Goy in New York

Maybe its entirely a stretch, but I feel like Mo Troper‘s latest album is likely going to put him in a sort of Daniel Johnston territory all by himself. On the first single from MTV, you got a little bit of that sort of link between his early work and where it seems like he’s heading on this collection. It’s not even the faint warble and distinctive delivery, but just the finer, whimsical details like the harmonica and faint percussion that really makes me feel like he’s crafting some of the more magical music to come out right now. I sincerely hope you’ll give it a listen, then be sure to pick up MTV on September 2nd via Lame-O.

Mo Troper Shares I Fall Into Her Arms

You’ve got to love short little ditties, and right on the heels of Tony Molina’s short pop song execution is Mo Troper. He’s announced MTV, his latest LP, and he’s done so with this tight little jangler, twisting these beautiful falling guitarmonies into heart-felt melodies. Mo’s voice on this go round feels a little more distinctive, but I think that adds to the charm, keeping a sort of lo-fi sensibility that allows all of us to maintain our cool, right? There’s a video version of the song HERE, but otherwise, you, like the rest of us, will have to wait until MTV drops on September 2nd via Lame-O Records.

Angular Pop Track from New Cassettes

Leave a comment

Feel like this weather is going to get me down, but I refuse to let it get to me.  So in hopes of helping you all out, I wanted to toss out this energetic number that’s been floating around for a bit on behalf of New Cassettes. The group released their album Winterhead just a month ago, followed by a short US tour, which is how they caught my ear.  I’ll give you that it’s not the most original track out in the world, but we’re all entitled to a little frivolous fun, are we not?  My favorite thing…it’s not bedroom pop or garage rock, it’s just a rock tune, albeit one that makes you stomp your feet.

Sunny Day Real Estate Live

Leave a comment

Why would we be posting about SDR, a band that’s been dead since the late 90’s you say? Well, we recently saw that the MTV Subterranean blog posted a video from 1994 of a live in studio performance from the band. The in studio is a 3 song set with great sound and even better video quality. Not familiar with Sunny Day Real Estate, one of the first emo bands? Have a listen to one of the band’s biggest hits “In Circles” below:
