Club 8 Offer Monthly Single

Leave a comment

For the briefest of moments I thought I was going to get Club 8 covering Faith No More, but alas they turned the heavy thump of drums into another playful pop ditty. This single is their 11th installment of monthly singles, and they’ve been pretty consistent in terms of their style, blending in little electronic moments with a classic indiepop sound. I think over the last few singles, and like the one below, they’ve really flexed some of the vocal abilities, which you can hear as the song crests to its close. This is a brief one, so press play and be prepared to soak it all up!

Begging Dog Share Common Place

Leave a comment

I have really been enjoying the jams from the forthcoming Begging Dog LP; there is something in the rhythm section and the buzz that works beneath that seems to nod towards Blank Dogs…on the production side at least. That buzz and pop keeps the track punching forward, but the draw is the way the vocals get delivered, hanging in this sort of cavernous fashion that feels like everything is echoing off the walls. Every time I listen I hear different influences, and the video provides another layer, with Jeff Kleinman stalking a stage much like Ross Farrar of Ceremony…or any other rad band you love. Demo 1 is out December 12th via Dais Records.

New Pop from Veps

Leave a comment

There’s been a fair amount of buzz, at least in our ears, from Norway’s Veps, who’ve just released the follow-up single to their summer banger “My Champagne Socialist.” You get teased into this track by this little bit of playful keys, while the group begins to subtly build their sound with distorted guitars texturing the underbelly. When they get to the chorus, there’s this little playful moment as they expand the syllables on “digeridoo-do-do,” giving a lighthearted nature to the song…and of course, I’m a sucker for a little hook like that. Their new ditty comes to you courtesy of the kind people over at PNKSLM.

New Jam from Soft On Crime

Leave a comment

I’ve covered Irish outfit Soft on Crime quite a bit over the last few years, so of course when the group put out a new little ditty I had to make sure you all were in on it. There’s this sense of longing and bewilderment that seems to creep out through the vocals, which upon first listen might share some similarities to Bob Pollard. That sensation allows the group, who traditionally employ raucous noise, to settle into a bit of slow burn, highlighting their adherence to pop standards of our day. You can actually stream all of their Noz Mat EP, although it doesn’t officially come out until December!

Accessory Shares New Singles

Leave a comment

As avowed Dehd fans, we’d be remiss if we didn’t at least shine a light on Jason Balla’s new-ish solo work as Accessory. There’s a construction similarity in the way the song’s he’s just shared sound, but in that same fashion, there’s definitely something lighter burrowing up from beneath. Each of the two tracks seems textured with imperfections and charm, starting off in this sort of solitary mode that unfurls into a great expanse of pop magnificence. “Ums” is a bit brighter than “Do You” upon first listen, but the last minute of the latter is just this blissed out expanse of indie rock you can’t ignore. Play both of these jams as much as you want, as you won’t tire here.

Home Front Drop New Single

Leave a comment

I was just talking to B.Gray yesterday about my need for something that felt energetic like the best of synth pop, but had just enough of an edge to keep my rock n’ roll desires in check. Lo and behold, Home Front drop one last glimpse into their Watch It Die LP; it sounds like the Killers, if they weren’t so dramatic, instead growing up with a skateboard beneath their feet. The whole of the song embraces this anthemic quality, as if they were building arena rock hits they could deliver to you in small dingy spaces that would make you feel alive. The new LP is out on Friday via La Vida Es Un Mus Discos.

More New Music from Leatherette

Leave a comment

You know I love to keep you up to date on the Italian scene, and one of my favorite groups overseas is Leatherette, who’ve just dropped another jam from their forthcoming Ritmo Lento LP. This track specializes in a blend of slowcore and post-punk, creating this wash that lets you soak in the waves of guitar as they nip at your ears again and again. I’m also a big fan of the way the group kind of combine their vocal work, all of the voices coming together to really deliver an emphatic bit of last minute joy. The new LP is out on November 28th via Bronson Recordings.

Night Teacher Share World to Close + Drop Year of the Snake

Leave a comment

Mondays are great for reflection, and in that spirit, I’m circling back to some old emails and releases like the recent LP from Night Teacher. I’ll admit, the single below is good, but it avoids immediacy, begging you to follow singer Lilly Bechtel’s vocal moves, calling to you like some sort of folk siren, waiting to smash your ship to pieces. That eruption does jump in, beautifully executed at the 1:29 mark where it bursts forth which such force that I immediately opened up the old laptop to start writing. It’s a really great jam, and once you fall in love below, you’ll want to skip over to hear Year of the Snake, the new LP that just dropped!

Emma Russack Shares New Single

Leave a comment

I missed out on the first new single from Emma Russack, one of my favorite songwriters from the Aussie scene; she’s got a new EP titled 5 Timothee Chalamet Instagram Captions coming out in a few weeks, and I’m definitely loving this new single. If you listen, it almost feels like a little country ballad penned here in Texas, with a kind of wayward swing to it, punctuated by Emma’s sparkling voice. As a middle school teacher, the double entendre of the song isn’t lost on me (nor my students who find it hilarious). As always, her songwriting craft and charms as an artist are on full display; the new EP is out on November 21st via Dinosaur City.

Leilani Patao Shares Portrait + Releases Daisy

Leave a comment

Over the last few years, Audio Antihero has been gathering up a solid stable of acts of great songwriting, such as Frog. Today, they release a new Ep from Leilani Patao, and I was really drawn to the track below, so felt like we could start you on the right foot today. It’s a slow burn, with the vocals and guitar work really low in their presentation; there is a little vocal lift that highlights Patao’s ability to weave in subtle melodies into her songwriting, and those little nuances are what will keep you coming back to Daisy. If you’re interested in the whole EP, you can stream the whole thing HERE.
