Sean Armstrong Prepares Velvet Ever After

Leave a comment

One of my favorite things about Sean Armstrong‘s work is that he seems to work on his craft, completely outside of the modern fads; it’s like listening to an out of body experience, where the noise of the world is totally gone and all you’ve got left is the song below. In that, there’s also a cinematic nature, with each carefully strummed guitar note resonating like it’s a framed piece of art, hanging in the air as Armstrong’s whispering vocals hang in the mix, almost fluttering in the front and falling to your feet. It’s an immersive world, where its simplicity and sincerity will sink you, so listen closely; Armstrong will release his new Velvet Ever After next Friday (4/25) via Rehberge Records.

Rocky Lorelei Shares A Dream Dressed Up As Reality

Leave a comment

Next week, Rocky Lorelei will release a brand new album, and after reaching out to songwriter Rachel Taylor, they offered us an intimate glimpse at what’s in store when Bury My Face in a Flower is officially out into the world. Perhaps one of the great joys of listening to this project is the fragility that’s offered to listeners; the guitar and bass of this song seemingly tiptoe through the speakers, careful not to disturb the perfection of Taylor’s vocal work. Those vocals are almost whispers in this presentation, perhaps owing to thematic messaging of the tune wherein Rachel found herself “lost as a human and an artist in the monster of Capitalism,” and attempting to pull back and view the world with a bit of a hopeful lens. I love the nice little touch at the track’s end, so you’ll have to stay tuned to hear what I’m talking about. Bury My Face in a Flower is out next week via Rehberge Records.

Slipper Share Sacred Contradictions

Leave a comment

One would think that the foggy pop sounds of the Bay Area was sort of an ownership agreement between bands and the city, but it looks like the formula has made its way over to Berlin where Slipper are offering up an excellent rendition of the sound. There’s a weeping melody in the guitar sound almost instantly, setting up the tones as the guitar strums along here. The vocals carry this feel of being lost between two worlds, one angelic and one more troubling. They do offer a bit of growl to their guitar sound at times, taking the sound and mixing it up and making sounds entirely their own. They’ll release A Tiny Rose Made Out of Clay on June 21 via Rehberge Records.

Rocky Lorelei Releases A Sculpture in My Hands

Leave a comment

At the very tail end of last year, Rocky Lorelei released the beautiful collection titled A Sculpture in My Hands. The project is the work of Rachel Taylor, who you might know from Spinning Coin or Hairband or Slipper, and boy are you in for a treat if you’ll lend me your ears. These 11 tunes are a mixture of introspective ballads and droning pieces of art poetry, all of which share this mixture of pastoral and naturalism, accompanied by the fragility of Taylor’s voice on the recordings. For me, there are certain standout tracks like “Tomorrow is a Star” or “It’s All on My Mind,” but there’s not a single song you’d want to skip over, each offering little intimate recordings that resonate deep within your soul. Personally, I recommend carrying these tunes with you on a nice walk through the park with the sun on your back; it’s available now via a limited cassette on Rehberge Records.
