Listen to Title Track from Bird Friend’s New LP
Just last week, Bird Friend released their new long-player, Goodbye, Babylon, and I’ve definitely felt at home listening to the record’s blended styles. At times you can almost hear the guitar ghosts of various acts like the Feelies or the Bats; they embrace a mixture of sharp notes leaning up against really solid strummed acoustics. Typically, that would be enough, though I’d be lying if I didn’t own up to loving the earnestness of the vocal work on the tune; it feels alive in the recording, and that, in turn makes me feel alive within the track too. If you’re enjoying, then you’ll want to listen to the whole of Goodbye, Babylon right HERE.
I’m a big fan of Finnish outfit 
If you’re not living in Texas where there’s two seasons, Summer and Longer Summer, you might be looking to cuddle of in a blanket and find a little solace from the Fall weather changes; you’ll need some easy listening, and we couldn’t think of a better way than to settle in with two new track from 
What a week of fun tunes! I was really stoked with some of the stuff we were able to premiere on our end, such as new jams from Lola Tried and Giant Day, not to mention that incredible Morwan track all the way from Ukraine. If you haven’t checked any of those out, well, wait no more and click below. You’ll also find the best of indiepop with brand new songs from Telephone Numbers and the Cords. I was happy to hear some new music from Mary Onettes, as they’ve long been one of my go to listens. Plus, there’s never a bad day for Stella Donnelly, dropping us a preview of her new album. Don’t be afraid to let us know what you loved!
Stella is getting her groove back, or at least I am. Managed to get my feet underneath me a little bit this past week, so we’ve got a pretty decent amount of tracks to represent. Threw out a couple of premieres for the homies at Feel It Records, with new No Peeling and Fan Club dropping this week. Turned around and dropped some Austin love for Skloss and Whisper too, which is always a goal. Really enjoyed my own introduction to the tragic story of Stroik, with a powerful tune you should put on your radar. Nice to see some favorites on the dial too like Sharp Pins and Frog. But man, this Happy Dust Gang tune in here is just my jam!
While the drop in from the new 
Okay, so we might have gone a bit overboard somehow. It was just one of those weeks where there were hits everywhere you turned. Austin popped up a ton on our end, with new stuff from Stella and the Very Messed, Whalers, Gus Baldwin, Thanks Light…and some retroactive love for Drunk Uncle and Little Mazarn. Fortitude Valley and the Beths battled it out on the site for pop rock supremacy, but you get to make the call which you love the most. Tons of great records were about too, with new stuff from Jeanines, Ryli, Tom Henry and more. The IT Department popped in with a reminder of Cut Copy‘s new album…plus a touch up on some other great jams from Mac DeMarco to Emily Hines…there’s a little bit in here for you all!
