K. Campbell Releases Brand New Single

Leave a comment

Sitting here on Wednesday, I feel like we could all be friends. I want to make your day better with a few sweet tunes, which is why I’m bringing you this new tune from Houston’s K. Campbell! The artist dropped this new single, with this refreshing blend of power and indie pop; it’s got this remarkably charming vocal delivery, with just enough bite to really keep you coming back time and time again. Plus, if you’re willing to indulge, there’s a nice little horn solo waiting for you in the middle, which is the perfect sign of a great pop song giving you that little bit extra.

Cindy Announce Why Not Now LP

Leave a comment

For all the bands that the masses adore, it makes zero sense to me that Cindy isn’t up there in that upper echelon of indie rock. Perhaps they’re too careful or too quiet, but I’ll be damned if I’m not going to continue to immerse myself in everything they do musically. The video below accompanies the news that the band will release Why Not Now on April 14th, which will likely continue to spin at my house throughout the entirety of the year. There’s something about how the band feel so studied in their craft; there’s not a single note that seems out of place, as if they’ve structurally engineered the perfect pop song. It moves slowly, sure, but carries this solemnity in its melody that I find magnetic. If you’ve not been able to indulge in this band, then by all means, stop waiting. Why Not Now will come out via Mt. St. Mtn. and Tough Love Recordings.

Guy Blue Shares No Other Life (Without You)

Leave a comment

Who doesn’t just love a tune that tugs on your heartstrings? What about a dreary voice that feels beautifully pained? Well, I do, which is why I love the latest single from Guy Blue. The project is centered around low-key electro-pop bits, and for my two cents, it sounds like a happier version of Stephin Merritt, a voice weighted by emotion trying to find the bright side in this world. It seems so simple in its presentation, but its dripping with musical rewards for those willing to let it wash upon your shores. You’ll find this single on the forthcoming Arms Wide EP.

Mononegatives Share North Carolina Atomic Bomb

Leave a comment

It seems like every few months we get graced with a new single from Ontario’s Mononegatives, and thus, here we are. This time, the verses have this very robotic nature to it, almost like a stomping wave of synths punching the message into your brain. But, for me, the noisy blast of emphasis in the chorus is what grabs me, dwelling in that realm of frantic punk meets garage rock. I feel like they’re always dropping these singles that have this knack for punishing your eardrums while offering up the teeniest hint at pop tendencies. No matter what, I’m always here for it.

Lola Tried Return with Black and White

Leave a comment

It’s been a minute since we last heard fresh tunes from Austin’s Lola Tried, but on their Renvers EP, you could hear a broader songwriting perspective, a certain fearlessness for the band to face pop rock on their own terms. As you’ll hear below, there’s absolutely no turning back, as Lauren Burton seems to only be rising higher with her craft. This song build slowly, like a warm up lap, letting the listener sink into the song. But, as it creeps along and Burton’s voice takes control, the song bursts into an all out spring, erupting with this crunching wall of rock n’ roll that would surely lead into a huge breakdown in the live setting. Absolutely loving this performance, and hoping you are too. Plus, if you’re in the Austin area, they celebrate the release of the new single tonight at Chess Club!

Sturt Avenue Release Talk Single

Leave a comment

With the announcement of the Cursive tour, I’ve been spending a lot of time with those Saddle Creek Records of my late teens, and I think that’s why I’ve really been into Aussie outfit Sturt Avenue. The group take on a bit of a broad sweeping indie folk sound, but I’m in love with bandleader Bryn Soden’s voice; it’s feels both familiar and distinctive, particularly when the whole band joins into take on the vocals together. It actually sounds like something Tim Kasher would be into, dripping with emotive hanging syllables and swelling choruses that erupt into mass singalongs. Start your Friday here.

Gregory Uhlmann Shares Again and Again

Leave a comment

Something in this season is really bringing me into more drawn out sounds, thus I’m enjoy the piece that Gregory Uhlmann has just released. His musicianship should come as no surprise, as he’s already been on the road working with Hand Habits and Perfume Genius…but he’s taking notes from Cate le Bon and Low on this tune. The tune, like the title, has this cyclical nature to it; it works slowly, almost dragging you along in the first vocal verse. Then, as if a switch was flicked on, the tune begins a more forceful jaunt, one that feels more like spinning you about on some magical tilt-a-whirl, just hinting at the study of pop. And yet, it spins back again, back to the plodding before jumping right back towards the twirl, “again and again.” If you enjoy what you hear, it’s the title track to Gregory’s new album, Again and Again, out on April 28th via Northern Spy Records.

Conflict at Serenity Pools Shares Golden View

Leave a comment

If you missed last year’s Type A/Type B album, might I suggest you go back there to introduce yourself to Conflict at Serenity Pools. Today we’ve got a fresh single from the LA artist, which maybe hints at a new release later this year. There’s something in the construction that reminds me of a mixture Radio Dept, albeit spun through a sort of heavier guitar sound; the construction and textural layering is really similar, but you’ll love how the guitars get ramped up here and drive right through your speakers with a solid punch. Give it a listen, and thank us later!

Blues Lawyer Drop Make Up Video

Leave a comment

I immediately fell in love with the pounding rhythm of the latest Blues Lawyer hit, set as the background against this perfect crystalline pop vocal. Once it hooked me, it didn’t let go, adding in a little bit of extra sweetness by tossing in these dual vocal harmonies as the guitars go jangle in an almost 80s cinematic fashion. It’s a whole lot of fun, played best at high volumes, and they top it off with a nice little homage to Monty Python for the visual accompaniment. If you’re not listening to Blues Lawyer, you’re not doing it right; their new LP All in Good Time is out on Friday via Dark Entries.

Bingo Boys Drop Donuts

Leave a comment

Seeing as its the middle of the week, figured we needed a good kick in the rear to get us underway, and what better way than this fresh track from Indianapolis outfit, Bingo Boys. Greeted with a wall of feedback, the band burst right forth delivering this pummeling barrage of hurried punk; the guitars alone feel like they’re angry engines rushing down the highway, ripping through your speakers as they go. Just as quickly as you dive into this tune, it draws to a close. But, then we’re left here to wait for their new album, Freak Out and Leave, dropping later this year.
