Good Morning Announce Surprise LP

Leave a comment

RayRay and I love Good Morning, and in fact, I even took the band to grab an Arma-delo the last time they were in Austin, so we’ve got to get behind the announcement of a surprise second LP from the group in 2024. It’s a meandering 8 minute pop rock track, embracing the title by just floating through the ether and coolly hitting your ears; it could even be considered easy listening, if you were into that sort of thing…which we are! Don’t be scared away by the length, as they fill that space with plenty of musicality and vocals, so it’s more like a classic Good Morning pop song, stretched for your benefit. The Accident will be out on November 29th.

Horsegirl Share 2468 Video + Announce New Album

Leave a comment

This track and news will likely blow up in about ten minutes, so I just wanted to make sure we had it up. Horsegirl have been on a hot streak, and this new single is so playful and steadying, that you’re really going to find yourself stuck in this infectious loop…though I don’t think you’ll mind once you press play. Looks like they’re playing with syllables and such on their new LP, Phonetics On and On, which will be released by Matador Records on Valentine’s Day. This band rips and that’s really all you need to know.

Rosa Bordallo Shares I Feel Numb + Announces New LP

Leave a comment

If Rosa Bordallo isn’t on your radar just yet, you might want to rectify that, especially after you listen to this brand new single from the indigenous native of Guam. Working in New York, she seems to have soaked up the influences, brimming with this balance of elegant bedroom pop and more avant songwriting, allowing her work to sound bold yet distinctive in its presentation. Striking string arrangements add nuanced shades here, with a rolling drum beat adding just enough snap to breathe life into the tune’s movement. It’s a pretty special opening statement, hinting that when Isidro rolls around, we’re in for a wonderful treat; it drops on January 31st.

Premiere: Sunnsetter Give Us One More Banger

Leave a comment

It seems to be a year where myself and Ontario based songwriter Andrew McLeod are in perfect alignment with the musical vibes we need for comfort at the moment. McLeod has been dropping hit after hit this year under his recording project Sunnsetter, and right before the release date on Friday, we have been treated to another banger. This one has a touch more of an overall electronic feeling to it with a droning beat and a swirling, distorted guitar to balance everything out. Seriously, if you haven’t yet made a pre-order for the new album, Heaven Hang Over Me, go ahead and do it now before the release date tomorrow. Paper Bag Records has a variety of fancy ordering options.

The Laughing Chimes Announces Whispers in the Speech Machine

Leave a comment

Everyone’s been raving about the return of the Cure this year, and sure, that record is pretty solid, if not because I’m constantly drenched in nostalgia, but, have you heard the Laughing Chimes? The band, while fairly new as an act, have consistently been reinventing the best of indie rock sounds from the 1980s and churning it into some of the best indiepop coming out today. On their album announcement, I’ve seen folks throw in shades of JaMC, but I kind of feel like the vocals have this underlying devotion to Grant McLennan, particularly in the way some of the notes hang in the air on single…and maybe even a slight nod in the video too. Regardless, put your nostalgia aside because Whispers in the Speech Machine is going to be the record you won’t forget; it’s out on January 31st via Slumberland Records.

Dropkick Announce Primary Colours

Leave a comment

It’s difficult to write about new music today, but as always, I’m just going dive into my feelings and really great tunes, like this new single from Dropkick. The band have just announced their return to Bobo Integral for a new record, Primary Colours, and a new single has come across the pond, to at least let us indulge in the warmth of their sound; they offer breezy vocals that work around the softened jangle of the guitars, wafting through your speakers with a calm that soothes at it hits your ears. Look for Primary Colours to drop on February 7th.

Another New Album from No Museums

Leave a comment

Those of you with an inclination towards a classic indie rock sound should be sure to spend some time with this post, as nothing feels like the history of the sound more than what No Museums continue to offer. Whether you like a little bit of noise or a nice light strum, the Canadian outfit build all those pieces together, mashing all those little pieces into a unique collection of great albums. Lowways starts with a gem,”Index,” which is the perfect encapsulation of the aforementioned combination of sounds, though I’ve been quite keen on “It’s Snow, It’s Dark,” which oddly recall the Galaxie 500. If you have about thirty minutes, indulge me here, and just press play and get lost in the weaving of indie rock patterns you’ll find lurking below.

Stream Love in Mind from Mt. Misery

Leave a comment

Once Home No Longer made huge waves among all the fans of the softened brand of indiepop; it had charms galore, offering up great guitar sounds and comfort. On Mt. Misery‘s follow-up LP, you’re going to get a continuance of their sound. “Hey” is a bold opening statement, kicking off with an emphatic vocal punch that reminded me of some of the early Lodger tunes; the chorus opens up with smooth backing vocals to warm you over. It’s the big focus on shining melodies and strong syllabic deliveries that fill the entirety of Love In Mind; I love tracks like “YBP” that encourage a little bit of playfulness in the overall construction, setting up some nice little treats for the listener. Just imagine yourself falling in love at the intersection of Teenage Fanclub and the Lucksmiths, and that’s right where they hit you. Stream the whole new LP below, courtesy of Prefect Records!

Stream New Album From Sam Blasucci

Leave a comment

Like most Fridays, lots of great albums are dropping today, but I’d like to point your attention to the new one from L.A. based musician Sam Blasucci. Now I’ve previously shared his stunning tune “Witching Hour” so you should be familiar with the general sound. Expanding on that track, Blasucci has an expansive, fourteen track album highlighting his skill at creating alternative pop tunes. He flows between twangy alt-country, 60s lounge, and a wealth of other styles and genres. Check out Real Life Thing in full below and enjoy the adventure.

Of course if you’re feeling the album, consider a purchase. It comes through a joint release from Calico Discos and Innovative Leisure.

Maneater Share Wait Single

Leave a comment

Ya’ll know I’m a diehard fan of DJ On and his Non La work; he released the excellent Like Before earlier this year. But, this is only partially about him, as he’s back with his pal Lindsay Stewart to work on their project Maneater. They’ve got a new record ready to roll, but “Wait” is our first sneak peek at what’s coming down the road. This tune fully embraces what I love about pop rock; it’s got thumping drums and a bright spirit that just makes you want to crank up your stereo and go for a zoom down a sunny highway stretch…that spirit, though tried often, rarely gets executed this well. Stewart and On are the perfect partners too, working in unison to build layer after layer of maximum hook power! You deserve a song that begs you to sing along. We’ll keep you updated on the album’s release date!
