Brand New Tune from The Stevens

steveIn case you were one of those unfortunate souls who missed out on the glory that was The History of Hygiene, then first listen to this delightful new song from The Stevens.  We got glimpses of this sort of pop on their debut, but this track shows such growth and perfection that it’s hard to even really see them as the same group. When the world looks back in 20 years on the history of Australian pop music, they’ll start to look at Chapter Music as the purveyors of all great things; they’re the label releasing this delectable single. Perfect way to wrap up your Friday afternoon.  Then you can also go pick up their LP; you deserve it.

We Like White Arrows

artworks-000088443537-vu528k-t500x500If you frequent our website on the regular, you are well aware that we are big fans of the new material we are hearing from White Arrows.  The style of the band has seemingly grown up in leaps in bounds when compared to their last effort as I’m hearing some darker tendencies in their once glowing pop sound.  Here’s another new song called “Nobody Cares” that’s sure to get you just as excited for this release as we are.

Pick up the new album, In Bardo, on September 16th via Votiv.

Download Latest Single from S

jenngYou know what I respect about Hardly Art? They’re still down to give out a free download now and then.  They trust in their product; they know you’ll love what you hear, so you’ll pick it up from them.  So, with that in mind, they tossed up the newest tune from S, the project of Jenn Ghetto.  It’s much like her earlier singles, showing sonic similarities towards Tegan and Sara; no one is too cool to enjoy a great pop song…well, some of you are, but you’re probably not reading this. She’ll be releasing her album, Cool Choices, on September 23rd through the label; don’t be afraid to enjoy your day listening to this tune.

New Psych Rock From The Britanys

2_1Brooklyn based The Britanys is a band that I honestly knew very little about before writing this post.  What I do know is a quality rock song when I hear it.  This one called “Blow” has a bit of quirkiness to it with the hi pitched vocals and washed out sound creating some special moments.  All in a all, an interesting song worth your time.

These guys have a new EP coming out on September 9th.

Bellows Bring Us A Bit of Quirky Pop

Leave a comment

10305413_655128174552829_6618824475890402563_nBellows is a project run by songwriter Oliver Kalb who resides in Brooklyn and has been plying his trade for a few years now.  My first taste of the group is coming today in the form of this new track called “Funny Games” which is the primary single from a brand new LP.  The track is hard to put a label on as it seemingly jumps from hushed, bedroom pop to a more loud, eclectic, rocking sort of tune at the drop of a hat.  Something about that is a little bit strange, but I think that’s what I like about this track.  Gimme the weird.

Pick up new album Blue Breath on September 2nd via Dead Labour.

Feel Good with Saint Pepsi

Leave a comment

saintpepsiFriday’s are for feeling good, forgetting the week behind you, and just having fun with your family and friends.  I’m pretty sure this single from Saint Pepsi will do precisely the trick; it’s like a more dance floor-ready version of Twin Shadow, with those sharp guitar cuts and infectious beats kicking things along.  This track is the featured tune on his Fiona Coyne 7″, which is being released via Carpark Records on August 12th.  If you’re in need of something to pick the day up, then turn the volume loud and spin this song a few times…your day will get better in no time.

Change of Pace from The High Wire

Leave a comment

highwireWent a little power-pop heavy this morning, so why not offer up a little turn towards a pop-centric world with the latest single from The High Wire.  I’ve written about the group before, and I’m really excited to get a full listen to their latest LP, Found in Honey. The song opens softly, with a focus on the angelic vocals before a synthesized beat kicks in to drive the song forward.   There’s explosions of exuberance here and there, with my particular favorite moment coming just after the 3 minute mark.  If you love what you hear, their album will be out on July 14th, so be sure to grab it.

Subtle Beauty From Let’s Say We Did

One comment

10298844_10152394288034461_8896894746492236296_nIt’s rare that I find a band who can be so mellow, almost hushed with their sound, and yet still be so powerful and captivating with the end product.  That’s just what I’ve found today with new band to me Let’s Say We Did.  Now these guys hail from Stockholm, and it seems a fitting birthplace, as these songs could easily be the soundtrack to an early, cloudy morning in Scandinavia.  Breezy, beautiful, and enchanting are all words that could describe this track “(Won’t You Please) Tell Me Something” found below.  If you dig, check out the band’s brand new EP called Such a Shame over on bandcamp.

Great New Track From Big Deal

Leave a comment

jpegBig Deal came onto our radar last year with a ton of solid tracks that we shared with you as soon as we had them.  Today news is coming that the band have even more new music this year and plan on releasing a new EP this summer.  This great new track “Always Boys” is yet another example of the power created by this band.  A slow build up leads to an intense, loud, power driven pop tune.  We hope that you enjoy this one as much as we do.

New EP, Sakura, is coming on July 15th.
