Uni Boys Drop I Don’t Believe In Love

Leave a comment

I really just want to hang out and listen to Uni Boys all day long. At times, the group can be punchy and garage-y, sort of like an Exploding Hearts adjacent act. But, then the group can turn on the absolute charms and bang out a hook like no one else; its the sort of hook-laden pop rock that lets you and your mom share in the joy of the world. With all their power-pop charms, you know there’s going to be a fiery solo, and it drops around 2:38 if you’re on the hunt. Sometimes we all just want to lay about and have some fun with our rock, which is why I’m fulling back the band’s Buy This Now LP, out on October 13th via Curation Records.

Sugar Tradition Drop Don’t Leave Me

Leave a comment

If you thought the tenacity of Motor City music was dead and buried once we gave the torch to Jack White (I think he tried to extinguish it!), then you better stop right where you are and turn on Sugar Tradition. After the slight bit of boogie from their first single “Fragile,” they turn things up a notch here, drawing from the city’s history and aim to tear right into your heart with a howling performance that’s likely to force your soul to leave your body, if only to shake it on stage with the band. While I love the ferocity, what really works here is the thunderous drum work; it feels at times as if things are completely out of control as pounding notes and cymbals crash in your ears. You want your hair blown back? Grab More Sugar from Feel It Records on October 13.

Population II Drops Fresh Video

Leave a comment

On Friday, Montreal’s Population II drops their latest LP, Electrons libres du quebec, and I’m really stoked on the vibes, blending in these dark notes and swirling horns vibes then branching it into something that’s a bit of a dark edged pop twist. There’s a bit of heaviness and psychedelic lurking, though I can hear the track stretching to really push beyond those boundaries into something that feels almost like a final plea for joy. Then it twists and rolls into a bit of madness as the track shakes down into a broken jumble of rumbling jazzy rock n’ roll. Their new LP will be available Friday!

Fanclubwallet Releases Small Songs Vol 1

Leave a comment

The term bedroom pop gets thrown around (yes, even by me!) far too often nowadays, but Fanclubwallet‘s new Small Songs Vol 1 EP really seems to grasp the concept in its totality, as songwriter Hannah Judge were a one-person project: all Hannah, no filler, with a visualizer for the EP’s single. I love the quite buzz of the keyboard as it shifts in tones; I really love the simplicity, which allows Judge to maximize the hooks once the beat drops into the track. Both beat and vocals seem to work in unison, matched up with one another, like they weren’t meant to sync up. If you’d like to hear more, stream the whole thing HERE.

New Onyon Tune for You

Leave a comment

We’ve covered all the Onyon jams from Last Days on Earth, so it seems only fitting that we add another of their singles to our coverage, mostly so I can have it in my weekly playlist. This track seems like the sort of tune that could drive the crowd into a frenzy in the live setting; it’s employing these stabbing guitar rhythms that tear through your speakers. The vocals almost work with a pogo stick, bouncing in your ears while the angular nature sets your feet afire. Frantically, you try to keep pace, only to realize, you’re whole body’s spinning maniacally with joy. Last Days on Earth hits on October 13th via Trouble In Mind.

Fortunato Durutti Marinetti Shares Clerk of Oblivion

Leave a comment

After the incredible success of Memory’s Fool, Fortunato Durutti Marinetti is ready to return with Eight Waves in Search of an Ocean. Today, we’ve got the newest single, a meditation on the state of labor, for both the worker and the labor itself, all of it circling into this monotonous oblivion. While the lyrical content details the cycle of continuous work for the sake of work, it’s supported by this incredible synth setting. At times, there’s this uplifting nature and pure nod to post-disco new wave, but on the other side, it feels open, sort of letting the song run its course, into oblivion. The new LP is out on November 3rd via Quindi Records/Soft Abuse.

Lightheaded Share Love is Overrated Single

Leave a comment

New Lightheaded? Another chance to get to know the latest signing to Slumberland Records? Yes, please! I should have known from the first 20 seconds that this track would have me swooning, particularly as the set up is delightful, teasing you along with a thumping bass groove and a ringing bit of synths and guitar. When the vocals come in, they ride on a light backbone of keys. As the song slowly travels, the floor spreads, waiting to explode into this glorious moment of euphoric pop; the climactic moment is more than enough to keep you coming back again and again. This is one special song! Good Good Great is out on October 13th.

Steven Adams Shares Head Keeps Rolling

Leave a comment

Not sure why I expected anything less, but these new Steven Adams tunes continue to impress me; I can’t get enough of the latest single. Honestly, it feels like what you’d get if you took Tom Petty and turned him to an indie rock nerd. The song’s got the huge hooks and insatiable quality that will have even the coolest kids humming under their breath, but under Steven’s eye, this song’s got just enough swagger and hipness to keep it working just left of center. There’s just something so wonderfully timeless in every note kicked out of my speaker right now. Adams will release Drops on November 10th via Fika Recordings.

Squirrel Share Stick Figures

Leave a comment

Squirrel is a home-recording artist based in New Jersey, but listening through the craft on his fresh single, it seems like he might be best suited for the quaint town of Athens, Georgia. You’ll hear a certain devotion to pop sounds in the building of the tune, with elements of creative warble and fuzz abundant in the space behind the vocals. Something about it reminds me of early Elf Power, which is one of my most cherished vibes. But, there’s also a bit of Islands/Unicorns in the poppier side, which I think really made the tune magical in my ears. If you’re digging, Squirrel will release Everything Sucks Forever on October 30th.

Video Age Share Golden Sun (Levitation Artist)

Leave a comment

If ever there was a song title that established the mood of the song for the listener, then it has to be this new track from Video Age. For starters, there’s this lightness to the track, almost playful like the first rays of Spring after a long dark Winter; the airy nature sets up the abundant melodic nature you can’t escape. Speaking of that melody, whether it pops up in the notes from the keys or the vocals, it blankets you in this striking warmth, crisp and golden, as the song title would suggest. The band release Away from the Castle on October 27th via Winspear…then celebrate two days later at Levitation!
