MX Lonely Announce Debut

Leave a comment

I’m catching up on things after a trip to the PNW and paused on an email today with news of a long awaited debut LP from one of my long time favorite New York bands, MX Lonely. While we chatted during SXSW in March about the much needed physical release of guitar player Jake Harms solo EP from 2018, lead singer Rae also made mention of new music incoming this fall. Today her promise holds true with the release of this new track “Big Hips” along with live pre-orders for their debut full length All Monsters. If you’ve yet to check out this band, this is a perfect time to get on board.

MX Lonely’s new, debut LP All Monsters is available to pre-order now via Julia’s War. Those ship out in February.

Hit Release Pure Unreal Single

Leave a comment

When you roll how we roll, you’re obviously going to miss a few things, as I’ve already copped to this week, but I really did love this new Hit single that dropped the other day. The New York outfit is working on polishing off a new record, slated for early 2026 release, and this tune definitely piqued my interest; there were elements that reminded me of Pains of Being Pure at Heart, especially in the chorus. That said, they take a more kind of open psychedelic approach to the vibe, rather than diving into the jangling side. Dive into the new single and keep the group on your radar for next year!

One More Hit From Glimmer

Leave a comment

It seems like this might be THE year for NYC based band Glimmer, as they seem to be slow dropping hits in anticipation of their debut LP in October. Having already released the tracks “Buired,” along with Sludgy number “Sorrow Again,” and it’s like, hey now guys, you can’t be releasing all these hits in one year! Of course, they press on, building excitement again with this new single called “Slow Saturday.” For me, the best description comes straight from the band, calling it “grungegaze” mixing in the noise of legends like J&MC with more current, gazey grunge groups like Nothing or Catcher. Love this stuff.

You can now pre-order the debut LP from Glimmer entitled Get Weak directly from their bandcamp page.

Glimmer Drop Another Hit

Leave a comment

New York based group Glimmer has been slowly releasing hit after hit over the last couple of years or so. Today we’ve been notified that a debut album is finally coming sometime this fall, which will feature this new jam “Sorrow Again.” It’s a sludgy, grungy gem of a tune and I will seriously start questioning your tastes if you don’t like or have yet to discover this band. We’ll keep you posted as deets trickle in on the new album, but in the meantime, enjoy this one.

Hotline TNT Deliver Again

Leave a comment

Hey, Hotline TNT is coming into town tomorrow at ACL Live and you should definitely join me there! They open up for Hippo Campus and tickets are still available. As if they are heavily promoting the Texas dates, the NYC upstarts also just dropped this new tune called “Break Right” and I am excited for the potential to see it live tomorrow. It leans a bit more into a softer melody at first as it slowly builds into some lovely moments of classic indie rock. Beautiful song.

Hotline TNT will release this track as part of their new album Raspberry Moon which is due out June 20th via Third Man Records. Pre-orders are live now.

Safe Houses Release I’ll Be Bad to You

Leave a comment

I’m having a hard time listening to anything other than this Safe Houses single today, as it’s got just enough attitude and rock to remind me that I’m grasping at hipness straws, but also offers a brightness and charm that correlates to wear I’d like my brain to be. When you press play on the track, you get instant gratification with clanging guitar riffs and stomping drums, just before it opens up to a more kind of paisley jangle that sets the verse up for a delighting swing from the vocals. You go back and forth, back and forth, stomp and pop, crashing organ, and each time the layer of vocals greets your ear, your face breaks out into a huge grin. Go on, try it on.

TVOD Back With Another Hit

Leave a comment

Brooklyn based outfit TVOD were a band that really impressed with tons of energy and noise during SXSW a couple of weeks ago. Maybe even top band of the week? At least in the Top 5 for sure. Making such an impression will of course cause us to hopefully return the effort put in while in Austin, so we had to share the band’s new song “Pool House” today. It’s maybe a slightly paired down and more chill vibe than previous singles, but I love the pos-punk feeling, guitar tone, and overall bouncy melody throughout. Dig it.

TVOD will release this track as part of their new album Party Time, which is due out May 9th on Mothland. Pre-order that sucker now.

Your 33 Black Angels Drop Shaggy & Joe

Leave a comment

New York’s Your 33 Black Angels have been at it for quite some time, and in that, they’ve had my ear for a good portion of their career, mixing up club vibes with pop sentimentality…just my brand. Their latest single offers a glimpse of what we will hear when they release Eternities II this April. As expected, it opens with this dense bit of glitches and bops, driving you to your own personal dance club. But, then the vocals enter the picture, off set in their presentation, moving the song to a slower speed for a moment, only to kick in the pure bounce for the chorus. Reminds me of a coffee date between the Unicorns and Phoenix, with a bright solo celebrating their union as the song fades

Hamilton Leithauser Announces New Album

Leave a comment

Look, the ATH crew has been at times accused of borderline obsession syndrome with Hamilton Leithauser both as a solo artist and as front man for The Walkmen. Did we track him down once backstage to buy him a beer? Maybe. Did I go all the way to Rhode Island for the first reunion show? Ummm yeah. Something about the music has always hit a personal note for this team. My doting aside, Hammy has been dropping hints of new music recently, which culminated in a new album announcement today along with this new single “Knockin’ Heart.” I cannot wait to hear more.

Hamilton’s new album is entitled This Side of the Island and will be out on March 7th. Pre-orders are live now.

Heavy New Tune From Open Head

Leave a comment

The self-proclaimed heaviest band in Kingston, NY, Open Head, just shared this banging new track called “NY Frills” and I have deemed it worthy to share with you all. You’ll find a heavy post-punk, dark sort of vibe to the track perfect for fans of modern bands like Deeper. It’s a tad noisy with just enough rock n roll to keep it fresh and interesting. Check it out below.

Open Head will release this track as part of a new album entitled What Is Success due out January 24th via Wharf Cat Records. Pre-orders are live now.
