Nicamus Return with Trust Fall
I first caught onto Portland’s Nicamus a few year’s ago when they dropped Dog Days, and so they have returned with Trust Fall, their newest effort for your ears. This go round, they’ve taken their twee-leaning tendencies and turned them in the direction of blistering rock n’ roll. Don’t get me wrong, the cleverness and the angular jangling persists on the track’s like the one below, but they come bearing a bit of power and bravery, punching above their weight-class so to speak. If you’re looking for a dip into the more DIY realms of psych and indie rock, you probably can’t go wrong spending the morning with Trust Fall.
Going to be a bit of an off week, as RayRay is out on vacation, and I head out on the latter half of the week, but that doesn’t mean we didn’t crush it last week. I was finally able to let the cat out of the bag about new music from Heavenly/Swansea Sound; RayRay dropped the premiere for new ATX powerhouse, Porcelain. Oh, and B. Gray was coming through with sick photo work from Kilby Block Party and OMD, so we’re really just trying to make your musical world better. There’s a bunch of sweet jams, though I’ll admit I’m really loving the Slow Summits new tune, as well as the cover by Glass Spells.
