Earth Moon Transit Share Faking It Not Making It Title Track

Leave a comment

This coming May, Norwegian outfit Earth Moon Transit will release their latest opus, Faking It, Not Making It, and today, I wanted to drop a line so you’d be equally as encouraged by what they’re building. Honestly, they’ve got a very difficult sound to pigeonhole; it feels like something that would come out of the Pacific Northwest in the early 00s, though there’s also this mathematic vibe in the structural nature, like this weird meld between Modest Mouse and Pinback…and just as you settle into the groove beneath, the track erupts into an all out rocker, only to come to an abrupt close. Just crank it up real high; they release the new LP on May 2nd.

Pynch Take You to the Supermarket

Leave a comment

We’re almost to the weekend, and we’ve got to get over the hump with something infectious and fun, like the brand new single from Pynch. While it’s easy to hear the group as another lot jumping into the fray of traditional rock, they incorporate this natural sense of playfulness that gets the tune to the outskirts of the genre. Not sure which I adore more: the huge melodic hook that operates as the song’s core or the rhythmic bounce that keeps the liveliness in there. But, I do know I can’t stop pressing play, as this rips through and gives me a joyousness that I hope will kick start your day with a big grin.

Snoozer Drop New AA Single

Leave a comment

When I first clicked play on this new AA Single from Snoozer, I instantly heard this allegiance to the college rock of old in their Arthur cover; it’s the sort that made folks like Malkmus famous. I was hooked, I was bobbing the head, tapping my toes, happy in my listening session. Then the unexpected hit and the song erupted into something altogether refreshing, at least in this presentation. Dreamier notes twists and crashed down, and while that’s not altogether new, I haven’t heard a ton of folks pairing it with a slacker rock disposition. Noisiness and nerds all in one? I’m totally in. And then, they completely change directions on the other side of the single, so you’ll have to listen through to hear the changes.

Dumb Things Announce Self Help LP + Share New Single

Leave a comment

If you come to our site from time to time, we hope you uncover something that’s possibly overlooked but worthy of repeat listens. Dumb Things is one such band, and their “Self Help” single was one of my absolute favorite tracks last year. The Aussie outfit have just announced they’ll be releasing their Self Help LP this April, and with that, they’ve sprinkled this delighting ditty to satiate your pop needs. Steady drums march you into the tune, then the sweetness of the vocals from Madeleine hit you right in the face; it’s enough that her voice sparkles in the verse, but when that chorus drops, aided by the rest of the group, I was just crushed. Really excited for the group, and for you to get to hear these songs! Self Help is out April 4th.

Bagdad Drop Somewhere Nowhere Single

Leave a comment

There aren’t too many Polish bands breaking across the pond, but Bagdad has some really rewarding sounds that you’re going to love. There are elements of Nirvana Unplugged in some of the rising vocal tones, and I’m thinking of “Jesus Dont…,” but maybe that’s just. my ear. Still, the slow-burning growl of the guitar sound does feel nostalgic in every sense, though with it, there’s a sweetened chorus awaiting listeners, ready to highlight just how much the band adore layering their sound with hooks. Cool vibes are your thing, so be sure to look for their They Don’t Know EP, which drops on March 27th via Rite Field Records.

Gum Parker Release Hive Single

Leave a comment

When you press play on the below Gum Parker tune, you’ll be greeted with a rapid riff rushing the song off into pop-punk madness, and for that, I’m grateful. If I’m being honest, there are elements of this that remind me of latter Against Me albums, where there’s a tenacity, but a lurking sense that there’s an adoration for pure joy and pop. Just listen through here and you’ll here this repeated “woahs” layered in to make sure there’s a maximized exuberance, like the aforementioned acts meets later year Thermals…it’s enthusiastic pop rock at its finest. Look for the group to release their debut The Brakes LP on April 11th via Repeating Cloud.

Stuart Pearce Announce All This Vast Overproduction

Leave a comment

I’m having a lot of fun this morning cranking up the latest Stuart Pearce single, and if I’m being honest, part of is the joy of just trying to follow what they’re doing. At times, there’s this proto-punk approach, kind of like a modern rhythmic pulse with Kraftwerk as the forefather. Then, they just go on these little diversions, throwing in these synthesized sounds that fill the track with other-worldly noise, and in that, they’ve throw all convention in the trashcan and created their own thrills. Ultimately, that’s where I fall for this lot, as they just seem to enjoy every inch of every song, and an energy like that is intoxicating. They’ll drop All This Vast Overproduction on March 28th via Safe Suburban Home.

Emily Hines Joins Keeled Scales Roster

Leave a comment

Austin-based label Keeled Scales has one of the strongest rosters around, particularly if you’re one that is inclined towards folk leaning songwriters. Over the years they’ve introduced us to Katy Kirby, Jordan Moser, Julia Lucille…and now they’ve signed Emily Hines. With her signing, she’s released the below single, with this beautiful warmth in the recording that immediately draws in the listener. The strum creates this reverberation that just hangs in the atmosphere while Hines voice gently wafts across the room; it’s a marvelously intimate performance that reveals the sincerity we can expect when a full length comes our way. If you’re in town for SXSW, she’s be playing at the Keeled Scales/First Date Touring Showcase at Chess Club.

Mould Share Snails Single

Leave a comment

Have a feeling my listening is going to be all over the map today, so why not throw Mould‘s new riotous jam right in the mix? The immediacy of this track is felt almost instantly, with guitars and drums greeting you, shoving you right through the door before you even get a chance to catch your breath. They tie that into the vocals, with all pieces feeling like they’re running rampant about your living space, with those thunderous drum sounds pounding on your ear drums. But, it’s not all furious paced joy, as they break it all down for a gang vocal pop explosion, which is one of the things that makes this song so joyful. They release their Almost Feels Like a Purpose EP on April 24th via 5dB Records.

MIEN Share Empty Sun

Leave a comment

Rock n’ roll supergroup MIEN have a new record dropping this Spring via Fuzz Club, and in today’s episode of songs that rock, we get to peek behind the magician’s curtain. As the song opens, it begins with a sampled bit of looped beat work, with Alex Maas (of Black Angels) working in his vocals; the drums begin to unravel, snapping into place as shrieks of guitar fill the background. In their press, the group claims that a great deal of their songs begin just as the aforementioned explanation, then they expand into the final product that we have before us. The story continues to unfold when they release Evil People into the world on April 18th.
