Donzii Release New Single from For the People Release

Leave a comment

Florida group Donzii dropped a few EPs in the last years before the pandemic, and now that they’re back with a new record, Fishbowl, they’ve decided to toss those old EPs out to the world and throw in a few bonus tunes! Below you’ll get “For the People,” which feels like it lives in the land somewhere between ESG and Blondie, as there’s a definite hook-laden groove, though not entirely ready for that dancefloor. This feels like one of those late night tunes that helps you wind down the party, while still feeling really cool about your musical tastes! If you dig this jam, listen to the whole For the People release, with those two hits!

The High Water Marks Share Let’s Hang Out Forever

Leave a comment

It seems crazy to me that the latest single from perennial ATH faves The High Water Marks started out as what the band called “a mellow pop tune…about finding what you love and doing it forever,” as the instant you click play, it will seem like anything other than mellow. You’re met with a quick drum roll and bending guitar notes tearing right through your speakers, but don’t fear, as the band quickly slide right back into the best brand of power pop you’re going to find today (and the next). Slight little pop jangles hang in the air, with the melody driving the song towards its enthusiastic choral chorus performed by the whole band. Every great single the band drop brings us closer to the release of their next album, Your Next Wolf, so keep your ears ready!

Freedom Fry Drop Brand New Track

Leave a comment

We’re nearing the end of the week, and while we might almost be there, I need a little extra to get me over the edge, thus the need to boogie along with this new hit from Freedom Fry. The LA duo have this insane knack for fusing various styles and various decades into one playful tune after the other; this song’s got this disco-funk groove to it from the guitars, but it also employs a thick beat that could be upped in volume to really push your butt out on the dancefloor. The vocal spin near the 3 minute mark adds an extra layer of fun that guarantees you’ll want this bumping on your playlist as you ride towards Saturday.

Talking Flowers Sign with Rama Lama Records

Leave a comment

When I want to know what is cool in Sweden, I look to labels like PNK SLM and Rama Lama Records. The latter just agreed to work with Malmo artist Talking Flowers, releasing a double single to celebrate the signing. The release is a great way to get introduced to the songwriter Astrid Lagerstedt; it’s got two sides to her songwriting, both which I’m definitely enjoying today. “Storytelling” is a smoky soul number with Astrid scrawling her vocals across this funky mix of electronic sounds and a rolling bit of drum work. “Bedroom Wall” is more of a songwriter’s piece, a light strum working with the power of voice; it’s something you’d likely find on Keeled Scales here in the States. Give it a listen, and let’s celebrate this beautiful partnership.

Ghosts on TV Share Life in Plastic Video

Leave a comment

The work of Finnish outfit Ghosts on TV can be disorienting, particularly if you let the beat of this tune distract you from the track’s meaty core. Drums are hit furiously, creating the blastbeat effect that makes you feel as if your speakers are torn. While I’ll admit it takes a moment for your ears to adjust, the song eventually opens into this beautiful stretch of shining pop. That, too, eventually fades, as the group continue on midtrack to explore a more post-rock territory, with thunderous drums meeting cascading guitar notes as they jettison off into the horizon. The group will release their self-titled LP via Soliti Music on April 14th.

Tough Age Announce Waiting Here + Share Single

Leave a comment

Rolling drums immediately introduce you to the latest single from Vancouver’s Tough Age, but don’t get too comfy, as the song quickly evolves from a nod to Aussie casual to classic power pop. A steadied groove is established by the rhythm section, building a nice foundation that allows the vocals to ride the crest created by the jangling guitar notes that hang out in the air. Honestly, when I listen to the way the guitars and vocals mix up, I can’t help but think this is just a prettier version of classic Lemonheads hit “Into Your Arms,” and I don’t mind that one damned bit! The group will be releasing Waiting Here via Bobo Integral on June 16th.

Marika Christine Releases Apricot

Leave a comment

What the hell are they funneling into the water in San Francisco?! Marika Christine is another artist from the Bay Area whose craft is totally fascinating. On the surface, Christine’s vocal is the star, as that’s utilized to lift the song up and down, providing movement as it goes. But, that being said, I’m captivated by the various styles that are being brought in and out of the tune; you get little hints of bossanova, little hints of jazz and dabs of electronica, all of which gets spun around a pop centric little circle to enjoy. This tune will be on Marika’s new album, a reminder to push your pop music!

War Strings Share Shame Single

Leave a comment

During the week that was SXSW, I caught this band Bedlocked with Team ATH; I remember talking to RayRay about how it was like a slowcore version of Appleseed Cast, which we both enjoyed. So, here I am combing through my email stuff and I hit this new War Strings single recalling a similar emotion. The fuzziness on the song’s edges is totally there in this single, albeit with a little more urgency so the track hits a little more quickly, giving off that instant emotional release. In the vocals you get a little more presence, adding to the whole vibe as it gives off another texture to appreciate here.

Holiday Ghosts Share Favourite Freak Single

Leave a comment

As a fan of good old fashioned indiepop, I will admit that every time I get a new single from Holiday Ghosts, I get a a little overexcited. Listening here, you can hear exactly why as they’re executing the tried-and-true pop sound; the guitars jangle in the right spots, though with this circular rotation that matches up with the thumping drums. But, you couldn’t have a great pop song if the melodies and vocal harmonies didn’t intertwine as they do in this single below here; it sort of just gets stuck inside your head and begs you to, begging for you to throw down a few dollars and pick up the band’s new album Absolute Reality, out on April 21st via FatCat Records.

Telehealth Share No Time Lost Video

Leave a comment

I will admit that I have definitely been fascinated by the work of Seattle’s Telehealth. Their first few singles from their LP hinted at this almost Devo-esque synth brand, but as I listened to their latest release, I can’t help but to hope that there’s more of this in store. This song’s got patience and beauty, pushing the song out delicately atop this warm beat work; it ends up being more contemplative, allowing you to connect on that level where your mind meets up with the music and carries you away. It’s just this huge thoughtful electronic piece that’s meant for reflection, and as we’re all here on a Monday, I reckoned we needed that. They release Content Oscillator on March 31st.
