There have been some really great tracks that have all led us to the release this week, and we’ve spent some time hopefully supporting the stuff that hits the hardest, in our books anyways.

So, I’ve collected those album streams and encourage you to go grab copies for your collection, as all of these releases are worth spending your time with today.

Electric Pets Share Make You Mine

Derby’s Electric Pets will be dropping their Elephant EP this November, and we’ve got a track bursting with pop sensibility to entice you to keep your ears peeled for their release. Immediately, this song hits you with a punch of melodic volume, setting you up for Emma’s soaring voice to bring the band’s rock n’ roll flare into the realm of pop rock. They balance things perfectly, with the rhythm section stomping all the way through while the vocals almost seem to channel a bit of Nashville twang in their presentation; it helps the band push the boundaries of where indie rock has been the last however many years. If you’re willing to stretch your expectations of indie rock, you’ll find that Electric Pets are the perfect place to land; the Elephant EP is out November 11th via Reckless Yes.

Chorusgirl Release In the Business of Dreams

This brand new Chorusgirl single is a must have for you today, and one that’s got plenty of little sonic twists and turns, so be sure to strap in here. It opens with this drawn out, cavernous sound; you think you’re in for some expansive bit of indie prog, but then the drums begin to bounce. The guitars skitter in, and Silvi’s vocals roll their own bounce right into the frame; this offers a playful contrast with some of the darker ideas of the lyrics, commenting on the willingness of artists to subject themselves to the ringer of the industry despite mental health struggles. Back and forth, the song tugs at you, and at itself, much like one would imagine the artist, struggling between the natural highs of writing a great tune like this one, only to have the industry turn away to the next cool thing. But not me! I’m here for it, and so are you! Colapso Calypso is out on October 14th via Reckless Yes.

Nervous Twitch Drop History of the Wild West

ATH faces Nervous Twitch are back with a brand new jam that’s filled with the type of sugary hooks that will have you pressing repeat as soon as the tune fades out. But, like many a tasty pop morsel, this song lyrically takes on the subject of escapism, leaving the stresses of daily life behind in search of something brand new. The group bring their ideas to the surface hidden behind these heavy riffs that bring in just the right amount of punch, with the chorus sure to please with its bratty sense of fun. This hit features on the group’s new record, Some People Never Change, which drops on October 14th via Reckless Yes.

Nervous Twitch Share We Don’t Care

When we first heard new Nervous Twitch, I was impressed at how the band opened up their style, letting the first single come up as a slow-burn pop rock ballad. But, this new single is frantic, gritty, and hook-laden like a motorcycle gang rolling through with a bunch of balloons and streamers attached to their bikes. Erin Hyde’s delivery definitely has a bit of an old school punk nod to it, hanging on to a certain coyness that makes the lyrical delivery feel like you’re bouncing off the walls. The group will release their new Some People Will Never Change via Reckless Yes on October 7th.

Chorusgirl Announces Colapso Calypso

We’ve been waiting for Chorusgirl to follow-up 2018’s Shimmer and Spin, and it looks like Silvi Wersing has finally put the pieces together to present us with Colapso Calypso. Due to various circumstances forcing a move to Germany, Silvi has returned the band to a solo affair, but that certainly doesn’t seem to have impacted the songwriting. The first minute of the song is all about building the story, like a great author would do, tossing in some ringing guitar notes while the vocals capture the ethereal nature of dream pop. Once you breach the minute mark, drums kick in and the song is propelled into a more joyous realm, though the guitars are still tethered to their dream nature. Back and forth we go, between pensive and celebratory, all of it tying you to the song’s emotional core. Stoked to see the project back; the album will be out October 14th via Reckless Yes.

 

Nervous Twitch Share Forgive Yourself

I did a lot of jamming out to Nervous Twitch‘s self-titled album, and I have a feeling that with a new record on the horizon, there’s going to be a lot of the band on these here Interweb pages. Today, we’re stoked to bring you their first single from the forthcoming Some People Never Change LP, offering a nice little ditty to set the scene for what’s in store. A heavy bass line slowly opens the track, and in doing so, it sets the scene for this track, allowing the band’s patience to spill through your speakers. The playful melody becomes instantly obvious, but where other bands rush to fill your ears with earcandy, Nervous Twitch just want to hang out; they want you to tap your toes and bob your head, but there’s no need to rush. Heavier riffs and pounding drums build throughout, giving the edge to the tune; I keep thinking of a slow burning Donnas jam when I hear this hit! If your’e into it, Some People Never Change will be released by Reckless Yes on October 7th!

Electric Pets Drop Don’t Leave Me

When someone drops Mazzy Star meets Dick Dale notes in your inbox, you know you’re interest is going to be piqued, right? Well, I checked out the new single from UK outfit Electric Pets, and now I’m hooked on their sound. My ears hear a bit of that smokey Sandoval-esque vocal, though channeled in a sort of dark psychedelic nature fit for a smoke-filled backroom lounge; it fits really well with the loose surf meets garage feel of the guitar work, with cymbal work adding in an added layer of hipness. The video’s a collection of other clips, past and present, furthering this modern nostalgic vibe that they’ve captured so well, walking that line between then and now. Look for the band to drop their Rhinoceros EP later this summer via Reckless Yes.

Piney Gir Announces Alchemy Hand EP

I’m finding it hard to turn away from the latest Piney Gir single, signaling a brand new EP is on the horizon. For starters, Piney as a songwriter, and within this new single, changes direction as quickly as you’re settled. Listen to the first 55 seconds or so, relishing the pseudo Jenny Lewis stylings at play, but then suddenly it’s all switched up, giving the song more lift. You get similar moments in the four minutes below, moving and switching notes, stretching the sound into something that can easily stand besides the work of Aldous Harding or Cate Le Bon. Give a listen below, and look for Alchemy Hand EP this June via Reckless Yes.

Breakup Haircut Share Out of My Way

When the strumming of Breakup Haircut‘s latest single kicks off, the tune seems innocent enough, like another run-of-the-mill pop tune. But, suddenly, drums began to pound, banging hard like a furious animal ready to break free; it serves the song well, forcing the band into a riotous performance that’s fueled by the memorable refrain of “out of my way I’m not getting on the night bus.” It all ends up a furious affair, with lyricism that’ll make you laugh, singing along all the way to pick it up at your local record store. They pulled the video together in a rather ramshackle fashion, with nods to horror film lighting and various other music video, highlighting the bands preference for fun and quick turnarounds. If you’re in need of a proper pop punk hit, well, look for Punk Dancing for Self Defence this July via Reckless Yes!
