Hayes Noble Readies Never Blue

Leave a comment

If you miss the innocence of the early Alex G albums, or maybe just the joy of finding a young artist finding their way, then this is the right place to be; you’ll love the earnest sincerity in Hayes Noble‘s latest performance. Where. you hear like-minded artists filling the space with ambiance and reverb on the vocals, there’s this bright clarity that permeates your room as you turn the knob to get a closer listen. The textured keys do a wonderful job lifting the voice to your ear, and as you hear those guitar lines operating, you’ll find yourself yearning for the promise that’s present in Noble’s songs; look for Never Blue on October 17th.

Bleak Streak Share Dork Shadows

Leave a comment

If you haven’t caught wind of Bleak Streak‘s brand new ripper, let me be the first to encourage you to find turn it up as quickly as you can. They’re bringing that sort of disaffected punk back in fashion, rushing their new tune forward with furious drum work and rapidly jangling guitar lines; those guitars hang just on the cusp of punk, allowing the vocals to kind of bring in the vibe. Speaking of the vocals, they seem a touch distant, like they’ve been recorded in an echo chamber, but it suits the style, operating back and forth between male/female vocalists in a style that’s super familiar. Hopefully they’re ready to crank out more in the near future.

Skloss Share Veto Powder

Leave a comment

After dropping The Pattern Speaks, Skloss are back at it this year with a brand new single, bringing their thunderous brand of psychedelia to the masses. Sandy’s heavy guitar wailing continuously builds this massive wave of noise that shatters the cones in your speakers, but it only works with Karen’s drum work. Every song they play, she’s banging those drums like its the last set on Earth and she’s determined to break it into pieces. They offer some heavily affected vocals this round, bringing in a bit of that sort of interstellar-psych mood into the picture. They’re currently over in the UK hitting a few shows, then they come back to win over audiences at Levitation!

Frog Announce The Count

Leave a comment

If you have not joined the growing mass of fans following Frog, then today is hopefully the day that the project turns your head. They’re a prolific outfit operating out of New York, and as of now, remain an undefined outfit. Are they indie rock? Is it art rock? Where are they headed? That’s the mystery, and we’re the recipients of their continuous exploration of the confines of pop music. This new single operates with a heavy bit of keys as the backbone, throwing a falsetto that nears classic R&B pipes roaming free atop the skeletal set of pulsing beats and rhythm. It’s a new jam for the masses, a final Dracula themed masterpiece titled The Count, which drops on September 19th.

Fan Club Share Roach Motel

Leave a comment

There’s no pussyfooting around today, as Fan Club (formerly known as Lysol) aims to throw us right into the mix with this furious pummeling of punk and noise. The guitar shreds through your speakers in an instant, with drums smashing as if they’re propelled by some robotic madman, thundering through your speakers at breakneck speed. Guitars skitter and knife through, letting the drums run rampant as Noah Earl Fowler embarks on a stalking of the listener, walking the line between growling at them through the microphone and encouraging them to circle up and march along with him. In under a minute they hurl through the wall, smashing everything with a furious seduction by noise. Look for their new Stimulation EP via Feel It Records on September 5th.

Pynch Share How You Love Someone

Leave a comment

The guitar work in this track will be what draws you in, but what will make you fall in love with this new Pynch track is the way they execute the chorus; it’s a brilliant moment that makes every second of the tune worth cranking up. Light ringing jangles seduce you, but when the line of “how you love someone” rains upon you, the emotional impact creates this sublime moment that has you recognizing the promise of their forthcoming effort, Beautiful Noise. I also really appreciate the way the latter half of the tune opens up with some synthesized stretches of pop, highlighting the hook and driving it into the brain of the listener. Chillburn Records will release the album on October 3rd.

 

Lillian King Announces In Your Long Shadow

Leave a comment

As we near the long weekend, perhaps we should begin our Thursday with this pensive tune from Lillian King as she announces her debut, In Your Long Shadow. On the leading single, the production is elegant, but seemingly sparse, with piano lines and drum rolls lurking in the distance of the track; the majority of the tune is dominated by King’s drifting voice, boldly cresting atop the light musical arrangements. The entirety of the tune gracefully wades into your room, drifting as the fan blows over your head, and just circulates, letting you ponder on the goals of today. For myself, I’ll be listening to this track a couple more times, then looking for the LP; it drops on October 24th via Pronounced Kroog.

Brand New Sharp Pins Album

Leave a comment

After a reissue of Radio DDR, which included some brand new singles, Kai Slater’s project Sharp Pins has a new release scheduled to drop before the end of the year. What I love about his solo work is how it pulls from a classic pop songwriting sensibilityl; there are melodies galore, but he consistently brings in just enough of a stomping groove that you feel as if you’re rocking out. That perfect balance is so rare, something accomplished by the greats like Bolan or Chilton, and perhaps that’s too much pressure for such a young artist…but Slater doesn’t seem to mine as he’s churning out incredible hits like the ditty below. Balloon Balloon Balloon will be out November 21st via K/Perennial Records.

No Peeling Share Pink Flamingoes

Leave a comment

For all its frantic nature and quick quirks, the newest track from No Peeling is the sort of cleanser you need in your life; it will have you bouncing from one note to the next, leap-frogging your way across the continuous juxtaposition of musical moments. One guitar seems to be climbing up the wall, while the other seems to be scratching at your insides, and all the while, there’s this sort of scientific spoken fashion delivery on the vocal side; it’s like your part of some ginormous musical experiment that you can’t pull yourself away from. If you’d like to take part in the scientific realm of music, grab the No Peeling EP from Feel It Records on September 5th.

Rosa Anschutz Share Sun Tavern

Leave a comment

When I first encountered this new tune from Rosa Anschutz, the experienced feel of her craft made me wonder why I hadn’t heard from her prior to this new single, and then I learned she’s been working in the electronic underground in Germany for years. My fascination revolves around the evolution of the track, building on this sort of cavernous industrial feel with a powerful vocal dominating the front of the mix; the voice dances and dashes to match up with some of the parallel textures at play in the guitars. Then, as you adjust your listening to the electronic nature, it instantly begins to twist into this bold soaring indie rock croon, pushing into this realm that seems to have few peers. Such a fascinating listen you should try on for size; look for her first foray outside the German scene with Sabbatical, out September 24th via Heartworm Press.
