M. Vaughan Shares Nazare Single

Leave a comment

What does one do when you’ve spent years crafting electronic music, but feel the buzz of your rock n’ roll roots buzzing in your ear? If you’re M. Vaughan, you get caught up in your feelings, and make a mess of it by mixing up both worlds and coming out the other end with a brand new EP. On his latest single from the forthcoming Keep In Touch EP, we get treated to the completed recipe, with this down-tempo techno groove built as the foundational layer for Vaughan’s voice to kind of reach its pop crescendo. If you go in close enough, you can hear the hum of a synth line burrowed in the mix; it’s a peek at just a few of the ways M. Vaughan worked to make this new world more seamless. As you sit back and catch onto the vibe, be sure to grab the new release from Super Tuff.

Nap Eyes Share Demons Single

Leave a comment

Leave it to Nap Eyes to take an old Alexander Pushkin single and weave it into modernity, as they do today with their musical take on Pushkin’s “Demons” poem. While it likely hasn’t been put to music before, the poem’s narrative nature fits perfectly into the realm the Nova Scotians have crafted; they’ve crafted this stunning elegance, almost as if it was meant as part of some ancient folk symphony. The tinkering piano and distorted ebbs add meaning to each little cranny of the tune, though it’s hard not to be Nigel’s voice, like a moth to the flame, it pulls you into the storytelling. Very few acts are crafting music in this matter, so feel free to raise your glass to these lads.

Parallel Release Painkiller Single

Leave a comment

What?! Two songs from Oakland in one day!? Well, this time we’ve got a tune from Parallel, offering up a darker version of the post-punk realm. On my end, this song revolves around the contrast between the sedated style of vocals and the jagged edges of the guitars. It’s like the two are doing some sort of devil’s dance, the guitar notes circling overhead like vulture feeding on their pray. It creates this sort of darkness, that’s difficult to evade, even with the extra layers of melody that sweep into the track. The band will release their new album, Flooded, on July 10th via Play Alone/Cherub Dream.

Enumclaw Sign with Run For Cover Records

Leave a comment

There’s just something about the songs Aramis Johnson writes for Enumclaw that have the perfect balance between emotional indie rock and punchy rock. Their latest single, accompanying the announcement of a new album and their singing to RFC, encompasses that tightrope act, walking between these thoughtful moments that would fit on any modern playlist, all before bursting into these riff-oriented crashing waves; it forces you to find your footing emotionally, while also indicating the joyous nature that coincides with Johnson’s songwriting. Home in Another Life will drop on August 30th.

Nightshift Share Phone Single

Leave a comment

It really is beginning to sound like Nightshift are about to drop one of the great albums of the year, particularly when you indulge yourself in this fresh track. The tune’s got a bit of melancholy from the string arrangements, setting up the the tempo to move along casually in the verses. That casual nature allows for a sort of graceful sway, played into by the delivery of the vocals. But, there are some more energetic punches for the chorus where they deliver the line “better off without/better off with you,” reminiscent of something you’d have heard on a Life Without Buildings tune. Homosapiens will be out July 26th via Trouble in Mind Records.

Ocelot Shares Brand New Single

Leave a comment

We can always count on our friends Soliti to turn us on to great new stuff coming out of Finland , mostly because they’re the ones releasing the aforementioned “great new stuff.” Today, for instance, they bring about this dreamy new single from Helsinki’s Ocelot; they’ve been quiet since their 2022 debut, so hopefully this brings us promise of more tunes to come. I love the way it works with this incredible beat underneath; the guitar slides up and down, just as the drums snap, all of it working under this intoxicating groove. In the vocals, you get this sort of reserved calm, at times moving into a whisper that exposes just a hint of intimacy between artist and listener. Personally, there’s these great little nuanced moments too, little noise trinkets that sneak in from time to time, popping up to drag you beneath the song’s surface. Enjoy.

Pop Filter Share Life Downstream

Leave a comment

After releasing last year’s Cono, I’ll be honest and admit that I didn’t expect to hear back from Pop Filter so soon. Every member of the group has various projects constantly in the works, so it’s great to see them back with a brand new single so soon. This go round, the band are locked into a steady groove that plays off light jangling guitar licks and a wobbling bit of keys that hang in the background. You’ll find the group playing with a bit more bite too, and you can hear the first glimpse when there’s a punching six seconds of guitar around the 1 minute mark; it sets you up for a full on rock n’ roll freakout that closes the track out. This track comes to you courtesy of Bobo Integral/Osborne Again.

Golomb Announce Love + Share Take My Life

Leave a comment

If, like me, Golomb wasn’t already on your list of acts to keep an ear out for, then, like me, you’ve made a grave mistake. This past week the band just announced their brand new Love EP, and with that, they’ve shared a thundering new single and video to capture your ear. They set the tune up with warbling and whaling guitar, set up to screech on the back of this harrowing beat that sounds like your neighbor pounding on your wall to get you to turn that noise down! As the rhythm section thunders away, the guitar takes its own route, locking in step at moments, ripping its own path at other turns. While the formula seems simplistic, its the execution and the band’s willingness to kind of forged its own destructive path from within that really makes you thirsty for more. The Love EP is out this Friday!

Alluvial Nuggets Release Hot Knives

Leave a comment

This new single from Alluvial Nuggets immediately resonated here with the guitar tones; there was something about the bobbing notes working in unison with the gentle strum, setting the scene for this wistful nature to sweep across the song. When James Dutton comes in with his voice, he’s offering up his delivery with a little bit in reserve, as if he is still unsure of how much of himself he’d like to pass onto the listener. You’ll get a beautiful sweeping movement when the drums elevate the track with just a hint more speed just after the 1 minute marker. Look for the new self-titled record to hit on June 28th via Lost and Lonesome.

Club 8 Share Closer to You

Leave a comment

It sounds like everyone in Sweden is intent upon landing on these ATH pages by offering up a single every few weeks; there was Red Sleeping Beauty…and today its Club 8. While some of their earlier tracks this year have had a springing nature, this one feels more spiritual in a sense. The guitar dangles in the distance, just sort of hanging itself out there, careful not to overreach, which ends up creating this sort of cavernous vibe. That’s the perfect setting for the vocals, coolly just resting in the mix, locked into the groove so as to offer up the perfect little melodic taste to listeners. I expect to be back soon with another Club 8 hit!
