Let’s Whisper Share Sing Video

This Friday we’ll finally get to unwind and enjoy the entirety of the new long player from Let’s Whisper; I’ve been raving about every single all along the way. Today, the band have shared a lyric video with us, filled with a simplistic charm, taking the cover art from the record and spinning it around the lyrics. Musically, the band are steady as ever, taking an artistically penned ballad and raising it up by adding little bits of flare. There’s horns, softened percussion, accompanying vocal work and all these little bits between; it not only builds the emotional connection as you listen, but buoys the charm factor that will hopefully solidify your belief in how good the new LP is; The In-Between Times comes out this Friday courtesy of Fika Recordings.

Junior Boys Announce Waiting Game; Share Night Walk Vid

It’s been a handful of years since we last heard from Junior Boys, and in that time, a lot has happened to us all. So, as you’ll hear, things have changed for the band too, moving from their beat-driven vibes to a more contemplative realm. The opening moment almost feels like its going to drop in a huge hook…and that likely would be okay, but they switch it on us. The song opens up, studying the genre, toying with pace and our expectations. Many will likely draw soundtrack comparisons, but in this presentation, it feels purposeful, almost meditative, allowing listener to bathe in the composition. Looking forward to hearing what the rest of their new album, Waiting Game, has to offer us all; it drops on October 28th via City Slang.

Pet Owner Shares Hi-Res Single

Lea Mathis’ Pet Owner project has been on our radar for months now, with an expected album out somewhere at the end of this year, or early next year. Today, I’m really happy to share with you the next single installment, which puts Mathis craft in a world not too far off from the likes of Beach House or Aldous Harding. Interesting, the vocal work on this tune, while special, almost feels like its crafted to build in another texture to the tracks groovy rhythm. I can also hear where Broadcast or Stereolab fanatics might find enjoyment here, particularly in the way the song almost seems like an electronic mediation. More great stuff from the Swiss artist.

Mo Troper Shares The Only Living Goy in New York

Maybe its entirely a stretch, but I feel like Mo Troper‘s latest album is likely going to put him in a sort of Daniel Johnston territory all by himself. On the first single from MTV, you got a little bit of that sort of link between his early work and where it seems like he’s heading on this collection. It’s not even the faint warble and distinctive delivery, but just the finer, whimsical details like the harmonica and faint percussion that really makes me feel like he’s crafting some of the more magical music to come out right now. I sincerely hope you’ll give it a listen, then be sure to pick up MTV on September 2nd via Lame-O.

Fatal Jamz Share Eternity

I’m pretty much a sucker for any brand of synthetic pop, particularly if it’s got a shade of darkness…which this Fatal Jamz tune has, both in the song’s origin and the overall vibe here. The track arose in the months following the passing of a dear friend of singer Marion. I think you can hear some of the open wounds still being processed in the presentation, with this almost nakedness hanging out there a bit for the listener. Most of that revolves around the fragility of the vocals, but I think the cavernous feel illustrates Marion’s push to climb from the darkness of those times and bring a bit more light into the world. Loving this jam for sure.

Tin-ear Prep Cadastral Maps

At the moment, I can’t stop playing this new jam from Tin-ear. Out of nowhere, the band rush into the fray, elbowing their way with these vibrant vocal hooks that sink into your skin immediately. Suddenly, the band break it down, almost cutting the breakneck pace in half; it’s like they’ve expended so much energy in the song’s opening half, they just couldn’t keep it up, but in seeing the song’s finish line, the punch it up one last time, letting out one last emphatic breath before the song closes. If you’re digging, the band will be releasing their mini-LP, Cadastral Maps, on September 9th via Gentle Reminder Records.

Nova Blast Prep Debut LP

The opening moments of this new Nova Blast track feel like my head right now, ready to explode. Somehow, the song feels cathartic, like the noise can surround and comfort rather than build on anxieties. Interestingly, the Swedish band seem to balance their noisy brand of rock n’ roll with a bit of an allegiance to grunge vibes, as you can certainly hear this song fitting nicely into the 90s vibe. And, just as you feel your ears can take no more, the noise subsides, and the song comes to a rest, waiting to go again. The band release Eccolalia on September 16th via Rama Lama Records.

Ribbon Stage Drop Stone Heart Blue Video

There are certain bands I get to fawn over on these Interweb pages, and as of late, it looks like its going to be the case for Ribbon Stage and their new LP. There’s something insatiable about the latest tune, something that keeps me pressing play again and again and again. It starts with a wall of furious noise, building into this thumping rhythm that allows the distorted guitar sound to sway in and out of focus. On the edge, you get the melodic vocal notes, though they’re just beneath the mix, kind of undecided about how forcefully they’ll make their presence. Still, they had this sweetness to the furiousness, which has Hit With the Most high upon my anticipated albums as the year draws to a close; it’s out October 21st via K Records.

New Double Single From Trash Man

With a band name like Trash Man, it’s going to be hard to drum up much information other than the sparse release details and whatnot via bandcamp pages and internet searches. In reality though, who needs information and silly details when you’re releasing songs like this new one “Are You Glad I’m Gone?”. It’s a very last 90s brand of indie rock for fans of early Weezer or even a more straightforward version of Pavement. The rocker A-side also comes with a B-side featuring a more indie pop ballad which plays nicely off of the focus track. Stay tuned for more from Trash Man out of Nashville, TN.

For now, check out several more jams on the Trash Man bandcamp page.

Bryan Cooper Shares Beta Life

You better believe that when a songwriter name drops Suede, Stone Roses and Blur as influences, I’m going to spend sometime listening, which is how I fell in love with this new Bryan Cooper tune. The opening verse alone, pulling on those sort of classic riffs, gritty but dripping with melody makes it easy to be charmed on this one, particularly if you let Cooper’s sweet vocal notes push on through as well. But, just as you expect the quiet loud quiet chorus move, Bryan takes it into a different direction, stripping the pace back and allowing the song to unfold the way he sees fit. I love the way he really hits those high notes, letting his voice take you to bright new heights!
