Nihilistic Easyrider Shares Two New Jams

Jacob Duarte is already a fairly big name in these parts of Texas, known for his role as the front person in Narrow Head. But, the last month or so we’ve been focused on jamming to his Nihilistic Easyrider solo work, bringing you two fresh tunes to jam to today. You can almost take these two songs as a split, one showing Duarte’s leanings towards a softer bit of indie rock, while the other harkens to his pop punk roots. I loved the guitar playing on “Weekend Fever,” as it definitely feels like stuff you heard in the late 90s emo scene; the guitar lines show some great musicianship too, so I don’t want you overlooking that! “Facedown” is a bit more aggressive in nature, like the best Saves the Day song that was never written…and its brief, so you’ll want to dive in real quick! Look for Deluxe Edition on July 25th from Run for Cover.

Nihilistic Easyrider Release Getaway

As the front person for Narrow Head, Jacob Duarte has to work as a team, but for Nihilistic Easyrider, his solo project, he gets to take all those ideas spinning in his head and do with them whatever he pleases…and we reap the rewards. It’s interesting that this announcement comes the same day as a new Superchunk tune, as you can certainly hear the pop rock enthusiasm in both tunes; it’s an earnestness to just let yourself be freed by hooks and noise. Duarte does a great job, too, toning it down a bit to bring in a melodic nugget in the vocals, calm and sweet, which offers a touch of juxtaposition. The new collection of tunes under the title Deluxe Edition will be out on July 25th via Run For Cover.
