Last Week’s Jams (1.6 – 1.10)

Leave a comment

You missed our weekly roundup, didn’t you? Well, Last Week’s Jams returns, circling back on an organized playlist to remind you of all the fun we had rocking out the previous week. Touched on some Austin stuff with Gus Baldwin and Matador Sphere, making sure we rep the home base as often as possible. The big battle of the musical week came from The Laughing Chimes and Sharp Pins, both going head to head for some incredible indie vibes that will dominate the landscape this year…or so I hope. Didn’t hurt that we also got to hear more from Prism Shores and Pink Chameleons as they prep their new releases. Dig in below and don’t be afraid to tell me what you loved.

Prism Shores Share Overplayed My Hand Single

Leave a comment

Those of us on this side of the indie scene have all been anticipating the new Prism Shores LP, Out from Underneath; it drops next week via Meritorio Records. But, before we get to the finish line, the group are offering one last trick to tickle your fancy, and it might be the best one we’ve heard from the group. When it begins, it has this quieted joy, the sort you’d associate with the Reds, Pinks and Purples, but progresses into something with a bit more explosiveness that warrants repeat listens. I absolutely love the way the track just feels like a big hug, despite hitting these jittery notes that seem like we’ve lost total control. Grab the LP before it’s too late!

New Jam from Prism Shores

Leave a comment

We’ve been hyping up the Prism Shores a lot the last few weeks, looking ahead to cranking up the noise on Out from Underneath, listening as the band bounce back and forth between pop sensibilities and rambunctious noise. This new single enters with a pop, only to be greeted by a wave of noise; that doesn’t last long, however, as the group peel that back to offer the infectious side of their sound, working dueling melodies to the front of the mix. Honestly, their consistency in the vocal work is one of the charms of this track, though I’m also enjoying the overall propulsive energy it brings out. If you don’t have Out from Underneath on your radar, pencil it in for its January 17th release date via Meritorio Records.

There were a lot of jams, and there wasn’t a lot of time, and all that to say, I still got an excuse to write about the new Cistern EP, with it’s banging opening track included below. Prism Shores continued to shell out hits, while Austin act SKLOSS return with news of their signing to Fuzz Club Records. The Rishis dropped in some delightful psychedelic pop, if that’s your bag, and if not, well maybe you get a little folk on your feet and crank up new Will Johnson for our ears. We also brought out some slow jams from Clara Ziegler and Disarme, among others, so all your feels are here below. Just press play.

Prism Shores Share Tourniquet

As if the first single from the new Prism Shores wasn’t a big enough statement, they offer their new jam, perhaps topping the joy of the first one. This go round, things are a little more patient, looking more inward, almost akin to the earliest of Teenage Fanclub moments, though there’s something in the guitar style that does feel very fresh. Each vocal go round carries this softness, but in a manner that sounds more introspective, tying it the current indie scene. You even get a little digression just after the 1.5 minute mark, leading into a beautiful closing moment. Out from Underneath is going to be something quite special, so look for it the day after my birthday, January 17th, courtesy of Meritorio Records.

Just when we thought the year was dragging to a close, we managed to find enough hits to fall in love with and make you a proper playlist! We even have a few of the tracks we covered from Maneater and Boyracer missing, so be sure to check those out. I loved the opening song from Prism Shores; it’s definitely a bright spot on last week, along with the reemergence of Mogwai on the scene. We managed to get in some Austin love for Whalers and Gus Baldwin and the Sketch, not to mentioned representing for the local festival with Levitation interviews from Hello Mary and the Strange Lot. Plus, our pal Michael Maly was able to swing some coverage for Air‘s 25th Anniversary performance of Moon Safari, giving me a chance to slide “Sexy Boy” into yet another playlist. Check it all out below.

Prism Shores Announce Out From Underneath

Leave a comment

Meritorio Records have been one of the most consistent labels in my life the last few years; this year alone I’ve bought records from SadEyed Beatniks, Best Bets and am hoping to get that Jim Nothing record soon. But today, the label announced the signing and release of a new LP from Prism Shores. The Montreal act is new to me (shame on me, I know), and I was almost instantly hooked. There’s this lurking familiarity I haven’t quite placed yet, and perhaps you can hear it yourself, but it’s this steady pop bounce that feels like you’re a punk mixologist, fusing the Red Pinks and Purples softness with a little bit of a harder jangling sound. Sharp and comforting, I’ve had this tune on all morning long. Out From Underneath drops the day after my January 16th birthday in 2025, so if you want to get me a present, you know what to do.
