Living Hour Release Internal Drone Infinity

Leave a comment

Happy Release Day to Living Hour! Their new child, Internal Drone Infinity is out in the world today, courtesy of Keeled Scales, Paper Bag and Beloved Records. What better way to celebrate a new record than by dropping a new video for one of the more gentle tunes on the LP. This song works in contrast to some of the earliest singles, operating in a pretty stark format, though the strained power can only be contained for a period of time, as it briefly shines around the 4 minute mark. But, for the most part, it’s a reserved bit of guitar pop, allowing the lyricism and the magnificence of Sam Sarty’s voice to soar through your speakers. Really a must have Friday listen, if you ask me!

Living Hour Drop Best I Did It

Leave a comment

We are just about a month out from the release of the new Living Hour record, and I’m super stoked to hear what the band have created. On this new tune, it’s got the perfect set up for the quietloud functionality, drifting in carefully until you cross at the one-minute mark where the tune erupts into this billowing blast of dissonance. They reserved moments build the tension, fluttering with softened melody, all of it leading you towards the big payoffs; I could listen to that first 1:15 again and again. Their new LP, Internal Drone Infinity is being released on October 17th by a trio of powerhouse labels: Keeled Scales/Paper Bag/Beloved.

Premiere: Living Hour Share Waiter

Leave a comment

Over the years, with everything we cover and talk about, a handful of bands sort of become those “ATH groups” who get covered consistently over a span of many years. Winnipeg’s Living Hour is one of those “approved” groups who first hit our pages nearly TEN years ago! Naturally, the band has never slowed down and have a stellar new album called Internal Infinity Drone due out on October 17th via pals Keeled Scales and Paper Bag Records. Prior to the full release, you simply must check out this new gem “Waiter,” which is sure to liven up your ear holes. We heart you Living Hour.

Pre-orders are now live for the new album!

Living Hour Announce Internal Drone Infinity

Leave a comment

Several years have passed since we’ve heard from Winnipeg’s Living Hour, but a new single tells us we’re in for another great record. They brought their new batch of songs to Melina Duterte of Jay Som, and while I appreciate a good engineer, the magic doesn’t happen without the songwriting. I love how the first minute of this tune seems to kind of offer several stages, starting with a strum then moving to full band and finally exploding into the chorus with a soaring vocal change and ripping solo guitar line. If they can pull all that off in less than a minute what do you think they’ll accomplish on Internal Drone Infinity? The new record is out on October 17th via Keeled Scales/PaperBag/Beloved Records.

Premiere: Sunnsetter Give Us One More Banger

Leave a comment

It seems to be a year where myself and Ontario based songwriter Andrew McLeod are in perfect alignment with the musical vibes we need for comfort at the moment. McLeod has been dropping hit after hit this year under his recording project Sunnsetter, and right before the release date on Friday, we have been treated to another banger. This one has a touch more of an overall electronic feeling to it with a droning beat and a swirling, distorted guitar to balance everything out. Seriously, if you haven’t yet made a pre-order for the new album, Heaven Hang Over Me, go ahead and do it now before the release date tomorrow. Paper Bag Records has a variety of fancy ordering options.

Premiere: Sunnsetter Shares Yet Another Jam

Man if Andrew McLeod isn’t just killing it this year with his stunning new solo work under the recording moniker Sunnsetter. Back in April, the Canadian songwriter shared what may be in my Top 10 by the time the year ends with his track “I Actually Don’t Wanna Die.” Since then, new tracks have come in, album previews have been sent, and I can tell you that the new album will truly be something to behold. Prior to the release of Heaven Hang Over Me next month, McLeod has dropped this beauty called “I Feel Everything” found below. This album is packed with so many emotive moments just like this one, and I can’t wait for the masses to get ahold of it.

The aforementioned new Sunnsetter album, Heaven Hang Over Me, is due out on November 15th via Paper Bag Records. Pre-orders are of course live now.

Sunnsetter Drops New Single

Leave a comment

Ontario based outfit Sunnsetter released a stunner of an LP last year called The best that i can be. which was one of my favorite spins in 2023. After such a unique and emotional release, one might think you’d see some sort of break or drop off in the new year, but no, new music is again forthcoming! This new single “I Actually Don’t Wanna Die” released yesterday and features an emotive sonic experience full of both down trodden moments paired with bits of joy and hope. I love it. This single comes by way of the legends Paper Bag Records.

Rural Alberta Advantage Drop New Single

Leave a comment

It’s always a treat when we can reconnect with a band that was featured in our earliest days of ATH, and Toronto based Rural Alberta Advantage would surely be one of those groups. It was a pleasure to see the band return with their original lineup last year with an EP entitled The Rise, and it’s an even greater delight to hear word of a full LP coming next month. Pairing all the tunes from last year’s EP with seven new ones, The Rise & The Fall will hit be released on October 6th via Saddle Creek stateside and Paper Bag Records internationally. Of course the announcement comes with an absolutely stunning new single called “Conductors” and, all other words aside, it’s great to have this band back.

Pre-orders for The Rise & The Fall are live now.

POSTDATA Returns with New Single & Video

Leave a comment

Back about 2 years ago, Nova Scotian musician Paul Murphy released his third stunning LP Twin Flames under his recording moniker POSTDATA. Much to my delight, Murphy just announced his fourth LP away from Wintersleep and has also brought with it this new single “Mine the Sea.” Not surprisingly, the track offers a breath of lightness with hints of joy and love within the driving pop sounds. GEM.

This song will appear on the new album Run Wild due out in September on Paper Bag Records.

New Single & Video From POSTDATA

Leave a comment

Our Canadian friend Paul Murphy, under his side project known as POSTADA, recently released his third album entitled Twin Flames just a few short weeks ago. If for some reason you slept on the release, might I suggest you check out his latest single/video, “Inside Out”, and give the album another chance. This song is one of my highlights from the new LP as it features a somewhat Americana inspiration, but with some incredible pop sensibilities as well. A truly stunning tune.

Twin Flames from POSTDATA is on sale now via Paper Bag Records.
