Superchunk Drop No Hope Single

Not sure if this was the planned single announcement Superchunk had in the cards, but it definitely feels like the title is an apt descriptor of where we’re dropping this week. “No Hope” rumbles in with angular cuts shredding atop a rumbling bit of drum work; a natural energy courses through you almost immediately, greeted by this faint “oohooh” that drives the sugary sweetness of the tune. Honestly, this might be one of their best tunes in sometime, incorporating all their best elements into a really tight package; the music and vocals have innate hooks; they vocals have a softness they don’t always carry; you get an anthemic chorus too! All signs point to a ripping new record when Merge drop Songs in the Key of Yikes in August.

New Tunes from Good Shoes

goodshoesUK band Good Shoes got a lot of great press after the release of their last album, but they’re ready to make huge waves with their newest record No Hope, No Future, which comes out on January 25th.  The rhythmic bounce in this song makes it perfect for a Friday tune; it reminds us a lot of our favorite UK band the Mystery Jets.  Maybe they’ll both hit the U.S. together! We can only hope, but for now, let your feet tap!  Or head to their site for a preview of 4 songs off the new album.
