Blood Share Holy Family Single

When press first came out concerning the new Blood album, it promised to have Tim O’Brien really stretching himself, vocally. There was a little bit on the earlier singles, but “Holy Family” has this dark majesty that fulfills all the promise of Tim exploring his voice. At the beginning, it’s quite fragile, almost beautifully pained, tip-toeing around a light strum and bending nuanced notes. Pronounced percussion comes to rescue, punching through the mix momentarily, but it only seems to make O’Brien withdraw further, hiding behind the textured density the group have built up here. Of all the power the the band possess, they seem to kind of control that chaos, making magic in the process. Loving You Backwards is out next Friday via Ramp Local.

Feeling Figures Drop Doors Wide Open

After last year’s Migration Magic, you can say that expectations are extremely high over at the ATH offices for this forthcoming LP from Feeling Figures. This new single definitely ramps up the energy, delivering an exciting bit of ramshackle pop, packed with as much as one band can cram into 1:43. Kay’s vocals just rip through the song, working with a bit of sharp playfulness, which delivers a bounce that snaps in step with joyous rhythmic push. Then as the song feels settled they cut right through with this little soloing guitar wiggle that just crushes your soul and makes you sink right into the glory of this pop number. Everything Around You is out on September 27th via K Records/Perennial Death.

Hallo Return with Worth It All

Starting off our morning slowly today, crawling out of bed to find this delightful new track from Austin’s Hallo. The group are finishing up the final touches on their debut album, and deliver this powerhouse of a tune, drawn to the fire of Tiana Stuart’s powerful voice. Those vocals operate between a Texas twang and a more angelic push, while the band behind her forcefully punches down; I love the burning guitar distortion that fills the chorus moments. It sets up for a great breakdown in the track’s latter half, dropping hints at the fiery indie rock they’ll bring to the table when they wrap up that debut!

Geneva Jacuzzi Drops Scene Ballerina Video

Dropping into my afternoon, and dropping into some pure nostalgia as we bump this new track from Geneva Jacuzzi. The lyrical content is all about that one person who always steps up to steal the spotlight, take the attention…and probably ruin someone’s night. But, musically, its pure glitzy pop, straight out of the Madonna playbook. The beat matches up with the punctuated vocal delivery of the verse, then the tonal vocal change certainly feels like it channels the old-school approach. There’s even some spoken word layering beneath, which definitely feels Madge-esque. A fun tune as you dance about and get ready to grab a copy of Triple Fire, out August 23rd via Dais Records.

Eazyhead Share Narcissist Single

Manila band Eazyhead have already graced our Internet pages, and their latest single continues to seem them spiraling down the the stairwell of hedonistic psychedelia. Thumping grooves build the foundation at the start, with guitar lines bending and shaking, scraping the edges of your speakers as they crawl through to open up into the jangling swirl of thundering psychedelia. You get to dive into the cloud-filled room with the band, scorching guitar riffs echoing about the walls while they allow for the vocals to crawl across the floor of the tune. Their new album Personal Echo Chamber has the makings of a true psychedelic experience, so look for its release via Dedstrange on August 23rd.

Friends of Our Youth Share Problem Is Single

This Manchester outfit is rolling back the years, hitting a brand of pop rock that maybe recalls the indie scene of the late 00s. That said, Friends of Our Youth are pulling off the style with bravado and sincerity that made this the perfect tune to crank up early in the morning, particularly as the sun’s peeking out for the first time in a few days. I hear elements of acts that we love, like Mystery Jets, taking sort of a garage rock sound and softening it up a bit to deliver the hooks; I mean, the way the chorus shuffles then unloads melody is absolutely splendid. Perfect way to kick off a Wednesday.

Tiffy Shares Mirror Single

Was looking for something a little fuzzy and a little catchy, so glad that I stumbled into this new jam from Boston’s Tiffy. I loved the jagged riffs that worked right into a bait-and-switch, puling back to let the verse open up with a bit more sweetness. There’s a bit of crunchiness, making it just rock n’ roll enough for the cool kids to whet their appetite, though it certainly swirls about in this twister of pop sensibility. Plus, everyone deserves bonus points when they just smash down the back half of the tune with walls of joy and noise! Tiffy will drop the 2 EP on August 2nd.

Soot Sprite Share Home Among Your Bones

Having already covered the A side to the new 7″ from UK’s Soot Sprite, it feels apt that we should also share the B side, as that’s now available with the full release out. While “I Went Swimming” has this sharp bite to it, you’ll find “Home Among Your Bones” a bit more like a soothing bit of aloe on a freshly burned bit of skin; it shimmers with warm melody from Elise Cook, while the band build up this little dose of texture give depth to the bedroom pop vibe. They save the loudest bits for the punctuated end, so be sure to stick through until the close, and grab a copy from Specialist Subject!

New Single from Robber Robber

Robber Robber will be dropping their new Wild Guess LP at the end of this week, and every time I get a new single, it’s like a grab bag, offering different little musical bites for me to sample. Their newest kicks off in a very run-of-the-mill fashion, but then takes a left turn to capture the runaway noise, fueled by a youthful vibrance and perhaps sheer indifference to expectations, making their sound all the more exciting. Nina Cates kick-ass delivery also seems to be taunting us, playing on the spoken-word manifestation, but then almost pulling our leg, embracing her control over the listener. Again, if you’re looking for a band willing to take you wherever their mind goes, you’ll love Wild Guess, which drops Friday!

Cryogeyser Release Sorry

It has been nearly three years since we last heard from L.A. based band Cryogeyser with their album timetetheredtogether from 2021. Today the group have returned in full force with this stunner of a reintroduction called “Sorry.” I think you’ll find it plays lightly between darker, grungy elements and delicate pieces of dreamy pop at the same time. I’m finding it to be a nice wake up call on this slow moving Monday morning. Stay tuned for more details on what is hopefully more singles.
