Seasonal Falls Shares Happy Dayz

Leave a comment

I first started covering Roman Gabriel when he was running the Kind Hills, but I’m hyper-focused on his new project Seasonal Falls. When the piano tinkering rings out upon pressing play, you’re immediately hit with this wash of emotion; it creates this wistful sense of longing that’s inescapable. That matches up well with Gabriel’s lyrics here, as the song seems to have listeners straddling the fine line between the terrors of the world we live in and the hope that we can all just embrace living for the moment. As much as I adore those moments, the softness of the strum accompanying the vocals really just sunk me, and I fell head over heels for the magic that’s hanging out before you here. Be prepared to be struck by waves of emotion when the project releases their LP, Happy Days this coming May.

Savak Announce New Album Flavors of Paradise

Leave a comment

It’s been a few years since Savak last dropped a proper release, and here they are with the news of a fresh new LP on the books for 2024. For a band that has ties to Obits, I’ve always admired how they flirt with heavy bangers just enough to give you the edge, yet pull back just enough to give you classic pop sensibility. This new track has plenty of fueled riffs that sharply dance in the background, but I keep on coming back to the stomp of the chorus; it delivers this effortless cool that has just enough growling bite and thumping drums to get under the skin of old indie rockers like me. They release Flavors of Paradise on March 1st via Ernest Jenning Record Co.

Red Sleeping Beauty Return with Song a Month Series

Leave a comment

You can expect me to have a lot of coverage on Red Sleeping Beauty this year, as the band have just signed themselves up to release one brand new single a month, and I’ll obviously be covering said singles until the end. It’s a challenge for the group, hoping to get them into working towards a new LP, and they’re starting off on the right foot if you ask me. Electronic pulses serve as the backbone of the track, allowing the Swedes to bring their cooled melodic vocals through the verses. Then, the chorus hits, spinning you around with this high-toned vocal that seems sprinkled with hooks, moving forward to open up for a playful interlude before dropping that hook right back on you. Always great to hear from this act, so expect to hear more from them throughout the year.

Ducks Ltd Share Train Full of Gasoline

Leave a comment

It’s crazy to think of the meteoric rise of Ducks Ltd; I mean just a few years they were “unlimited” in their duck quotient! This new single holds tight to some of their earliest stylings, using a thumping beat and infectious guitar licks to lead you into the core of the song. But, that’s sort of where they’ve grown; opening the track into a bit more of a punchy bit of pop rock, coated in these atmospheric nods to their dreamier beginnings. As they prepare Harm’s Way, its clear that they’ve pushed their indiepop tendencies to the background, hoping we can all latch onto their bopping grooves from here on out. I’m in, and I’ll be looking forward to the LP when it drops on February 9th via Carpark Records.

Cordelia Gartside Shares December Single

Leave a comment

There’s something about Cordelia Gartside‘s new single that definitely evokes the feeling of “December.” For many of us, the creeping in of wintery winds aligns with the quieted whisper of her voice, seeping through your pores and filling your body with warmth. Guitars add to that quieted nature, seemingly tip-toeing through your speakers, attempting to fill the room with their delicate notes as they build tension. Still, they pull back, letting us wrestle with the song’s solitude as we patiently wait to hear what the UK artists will drop next!

Check Out the Latest Harmless Tune

Leave a comment

I’ve been covering Nacho Cano’s work for a really long time on this site, so it only seems fitting that I jump back in on this track he dropped just before the New Year under his Harmless moniker. For me, there’s something entirely enchanting about the vocal performance; it has this timelessness that reminds me of listening to 50s rock n’ roll with my mom as a kid. Nacho’s production lets the melody hang out there perfectly, waiting for the musical elements to dive right in and make you swoon; the guitars hang right behind his voice, sparkling and adding this beautiful shimmer. I’m a sucker for this, and based on the slew of singles he’s been dropping, I’m hoping for a new LP in the new year.

CR&M Share Mondegreen

Leave a comment

A lot of folks usually run the New Year with resolutions and lists of goals; I think on my end, I tend to write about my feelings and shit, which usually requires a good solid score. Today, I’ve been jamming this trippy bit of post-rock from CR&M. Admittedly, I don’t know much about the band, as they don’t even have a site or the like, but this track reminds me of that sort of atmospheric post rock meets IDM style popularized by the likes of Boards of Canada and such. It allows plenty of space for your brain to roam and wonder, yet it’s tightly wound, so you can feel the natural push and pull of tension that runs throughout. New year, new me, new song.

Atlantic Canyons Share Laminar Flow

Leave a comment

Atlantic Canyons is a fairly new project, having only been around for a few years now, and this new track felt like the perfect feel for a Friday morning. It sort of sneaks up on you, tinkering with silence and ambient moments for 20 seconds or so before erupting into this huge wash of dense electronic pop. I loved the way the synthetic notes created this rise and fall in their craft, letting the notes kind of follow suit as they, too, rise and fall within the confines of their electronic blanket. Let this warmth wash over you a bit as you relax in your Friday vibes.

Fresh Track from Club 8

Leave a comment

If you’re pressing play, you can’t tell me that the song doesn’t immediately get stuck in your head! Club 8 open their latest single with a thumping single, tossing you into a toe-tapping frizzy as that infectious groove locks you into good times. Of course, the band always play with catchy notes while fusing it with really warm melody, and they do that here, with both singers trading verses back and forth with one another to charming effect. There’s no word as of yet about a new album, but hints of a slew of singles coming our way in the new year, so we’ve all got that to hang our hopes atop.

Or Best Offer Announce Debut LP

Leave a comment

As we look back on the year, I realize that I started to seek out some stuff that went deeper into the realms of indie rock, digging down into the caverns of the stuff that truly feels left of the dial…like Or Best Offer. The Chicago outfit burrowed into their own space, crafting their own instruments out of used children’s toys and spare parts, allowing them to toy with our expectations. It’s interesting to me that the album’s title is Center, as that’s what Grace Schmidhauser provides here, a sort of pop gravitational pull allowing the noisy planets and moons to orbit and overlap and crash into one another, building this textured web of interstellar indie noise. It will be interesting to see how far they take it on their debut, which drops via Ba Da Bing on January 26th.
