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.

Lunar Vacation Share Only You Video

Leave a comment

Having received great reviews with the release of Inside Every Fig is a Dead Wasp back in late 2021, Lunar Vacation have been on a bit of a high. They’ve released demos, recorded an Audiotree session, plus spun their view on some Christmas classics. But, today the band has a brand new single for you to taste, accompanied by a video shot in rural Tennessee. Once the song gets going, just beyond the 1 minute mark, you’re immediately greeted by Grace’s soothing voice over a soft percussive roll and gentle acoustic strum. It actually feels as if you’re walking side by side with the character in the video, traipsing about in those Tennessee foothills, perhaps with a little wind at your back. In the end, I got super stuck on the expansive nature; there’s this natural openness to the Atlanta group’s songwriting here that just immediately brings you on a journey. The tune is brought to you courtesy of Keeled Scales.

Dry Cleaning Announce Swampy EP

Leave a comment

Having released the wonderful Stumpwork last year, Dry Cleaning realized they couldn’t fit every possible track on that LP, so they saved a few tunes from that session; today they turn those extra tracks into the Swampy EP. The songs certainly wear the lineage to that last LP, with one operating as an instrumental tune that would have served nicely to link tracks in their original tracklisting. Plus, the new EP features some remixes of Stumpwork tunes that should get mega-fans excited. Stream the two new tunes below, and if you like, order the Swampy EP from 4AD.

Mythical Motors Offer Up New Single

Leave a comment

There’s a massive catalog of music coming from Mythical Motors, though it feels like its super easy to indulge when the project releases a great new single, like “Replacement City.” When the guitars rode into the show here, there was this satisfying vibrancy, like I was playing in a ball pit as melody rained down. Then the vocals kick in, embracing this almost arena power rock vibe, though they hide in a bit of obscurity, always maintaining their earnestness. It all circles back, then the latter half rushes forward forcefully, almost hitting you in the face with those big old pop hooks. You definitely can’t go wrong with this jam today!

Jonathan Bree Announces Pre-Code Hollywood

Leave a comment

I feel like I’ve been riding solo on the Jonathan Bree train for a long while now, but maybe now that the New Zealand artist has caught the ear of Nile Rodgers (who plays and produces on this track!), maybe the rest of the States will get in on the vibe. News came our way yesterday that there’s a new full-length coming our way, and the title track accompanied said announcement. Bree’s voice still comes off like the coolest crooner you ever did see, but there’s a nice bit of sheen to the song this go round. It feels as if this has gone full on into a sort of disco-club, albeit run though the orchestral divination of Jonathan and his work. I just can’t get enough, so I’m stoked to hear the whole of Pre-Code Hollywood, out in April via Lil Chief Records.

Brock Pytel Drops Brand New Single

One comment

You might recognize Brock Pytel‘s name as the singing man behind the kit for the Doughboys, but now the songwriter’s out on his own dropping new jams. I’m jamming this new single, which feels like it almost takes on a classic Bob Pollard vocal approach, particularly when it gets to the chorus where Pytel seems to curl the faintest hint of melody into his matter-of-fact delivery. Musically, you get a bit of that power-pop sound, albeit one envisioned with a set of 90s glasses on your head; there’s also plenty of banging noise to, in case you were worried Brock might indulge in the underlying sweetness. Looking forward to hear more from the ex-Doughboys singer.

Mary Anne’s Polar Rig Share Latest Single

Leave a comment

Every time the folks at Rama Lama Records send us a new song from Mary Anne’s Polar Rig, I have certain expectations. Good ones, mind you, but expectations. Their latest single, however, threw me for a huge loop. The first minute or so sheds the abrasive nature they usually bring to the table, favoring a bit more of a clean shimmer, almost sparkling with Malin’s vocals carefully moving the song forward. Elements of noise begin to creep in, though done with restraint to elongate the emotional pull; even as the volume seems prominent that shine on the melodic center is clear, almost shielding the listener from the barrage in the distance. It’s a nice little mixture of everything the band excel at; Makes You Wonder is out on March 24th.

Letting Up Despite Great Faults Announce Crumble EP

Leave a comment

After releasing last year’s excellent IV, Austin’s Letting Up Despite Great Faults return today with the announcement of a brand new EP. That, of course, means we get a brand new single (with a Mobb Deep reference no less!). When you press play, you’re immediately greeted by this cacophony of melodic noise, matched with Annah’s vocals running through the middle. Suddenly, the noise drops off and you get the melody clear and open, sparkling with the immediacy of a great pop hook. Back and forth goes the song, balancing on the tightrope between an abyss of noise and pop. The band are set to release the Crumble EP on April 4th, with rumors of tour popping up online.

The High Water Marks Return with New Single

Leave a comment

If, by some odd chance, you missed out on last year’s Proclaimer of Things, you can certainly rectify that by running to listen to last year’s hit LP. But, if you just want to jump right in to the new new, give a listen to the High Water Marks latest single, with the promise of new LP coming later in the year! I won’t even mention the ties to Elephant 6 (oops!) because the song’s just a straight pop rock tune that you’ll want to play again and again. It brings about just the slightest heaviness in the riffs, with a solid bop going on in the percussive element keeping your toes tapping. Oh, and if your band is doing dual vocal approaches, please make them this delightful. We’ll keep you posted on Your Next Wolf when we hear more!

Holy Vision Share New Single

Leave a comment

Don’t you just love it when a song hits you right in the face upon pressing play? That’s exactly what you’re going to get from Jackson’s Holy Vision; the band offer up a blend of ambient shoegaze smattered with forceful blasts of discord and noise. The vocals get to hide just behind the curtain, lurking somewhere in the song’s shadow, creating an almost textural feel to what’s in store here. Musically, the chorus is where you get the guitars back up to speed, furiously clawing at your speakers to let the volume bleed out. Happy Hump Day!
