Sea Lemon Shares Sweet Anecdote

Leave a comment

Over the last couple of years, Sea Lemon has been a rising star in the scene; she’s popped up here on ATH and even the hitmakers over at GvsB have backed her work. Yesterday while we were filling kids with candy, she dropped a brand new treat, and you’ve got to slide right into this tune. It’s a style that will easily get filed under dream pop, playing adjacently to acts like Beach House or Winter, so you know the style is something built for us all. I love where voice hangs, just muddying it up next to the wash of slow churning percussion and synthetic washes; it kind of feels built for rainy days in the songwriter’s own Seattle.

Ohr Share Runaway Video

Leave a comment

When you wake up on a Monday, sometimes you just want to spin right into the world, and I think if you give this new jam from Seattle’s Ohr a play or two you’re going to fall in love with what’s outside your door, even if its only for a minute. There’s that same pulsing rhythm and groove that filled the minutes on old LCD Soundsystem records, though when its done here, there’s a softer skin, as if the melody’s saturated the track, putting the hook just behind the front of the mix. Don’t get me wrong, there’s still a spiritual freedom in this jam, but I love that it’s slight more of a mist of pop as opposed to a cliche downpour of beats. This tune appears on Afterglow, which drops this Friday!

New Hit From Prim

Leave a comment

It’s always nice when we are perusing the new music scene to come across a band who can still rock a bit. That’s just what you can expect prior to listening to this new tune “Golden Tooth” from the Seattle upstarts Prim. Staying true to their cities past, the song has a very alt-rock vibe to it paired with snarling vocals and shiny guitar solos. Take this one with you for your weekend party starter.

This track is part of Prim’s debut LP entitled Move Too Slow which is out on September 6th via Sunday Drive Records. Pre-orders be live now!

Supercrush Share Lost My Head for KR Records Comp

Leave a comment

I love a good compilation, particularly when it captures a music scene as a snapshot; it’s always fun to go back and see what was cool or who made it out alive. Today, KR Records announces From Far It All Seems Small, a compilation covering the music scene of Seattle in the year of 2024; it features acts like Spiral XP, Shook Ones, Sun Spots…and Supercrush. This tune from Supercrush rips, but I won’t deny that it immediately made me think of the very first LP from the Rentals; it’s got that combination of moog work and power-pop, and I couldn’t be more stoked. From Far It All Seems Small will be out on May 24th, so keep your ears out!

Get Down With Acid Tongue

Leave a comment

Seattle based legends Acid Tongue seem to be one of those groups I can always rely on for a solid rock n roll banger just when I need it. This new track “Acid on the Dance Floor” is hitting all those feels today with some straight up sludgy, psychy, and simple badass sounds. If you’re feeling a little down in the dumps, crank this joint to 11 and enjoy the sheer swamp of it all.

Acid Tongue will be releasing this track as part of their fourth full length LP entitled Acid on the Dance Floor. Pre-orders are live for that one now and it’s due out on April 12th.

Nessa Readies New EP, Shares Latest Singles

Leave a comment

Those of you who frequent our wee site might recognize Nessa Grasing‘s name in the notes of much-championed ATH faves, Scarves. This time however, we’re focusing on Nessa‘s solo work, offering you a bit more of a personal approach, predominantly working with the strength of vocals and heavy-strumming. On “Forest Fires” there’s a bit of a pop tinge to the tune, especially as the vocals swell to meet up with a light arrangement of strings behind. “The Desert and Your Demons” seems to be a bit more of a traditional ballad, with Nessa’s voice bringing a bit more fragility to both the tones and the storytelling; you can almost hear a breaking point for the narrator as its matched by the voice during the climax. The Palouse EP is on the horizon; we’ll keep you posted as we near the release!

Wimps Announce City Lights LP

Leave a comment

It’s been a hot minute since we last heard from Wimps, but they waste no time in getting stuck right in our rotation with the announcement of a fresh new record on the horizon. Like many of us, the pandemic hit hard, but it did bring with it some special moments, like motherhood for Rachel Ratner. This song just rips right in, kicking off with a furiously pounding rhythm that rushes the song through your speakers as quick as can be! Lyrically, the song celebrates being a mom, while trying to find that balance between parenting and artistic creativity. As a dad, I can definitely relate to the need to find that balance! The band will be releasing City Lights on October 13th via Youth Riot Records.

Have Another Sea Lemon Tune

Leave a comment

Natalie Lew has really grabbed my attention over the last few months with multiple new singles under her recording moniker Sea Lemon. First we heard the mellow and trippy “Cellar,” followed by the poppier tune “Vaporized,” and now we have this jam called “Breakdown” which features a guest appearance by Day Wave. Compared to other tracks, this one falls into a very heavy and hazy feel with mellow touches and a delicate approach to the presentation. If you have yet to dig into this singles, do it now. Do. It. Now.

Sea Lemon’s new EP entitled Stop at Nothing goes live on Thursday via Luminelle Recordings.

Check Out Another Advertisement Tune

Leave a comment

My pals in Advertisement are really having a strong resurgence here in late summer as they are dropping serious heat with some new singles. Already having shared the straight rocker “Victory,” the band returns today with a song more on the downtrodden side with “Nobody’s Cop.” You’ll find a more mellow approach paired with some alt-country and sort of Southern rock inspiration from the Seattle based band. Pre-orders for Advertisement’s new album Escorts are live now from Feel It Records.

Sea Lemon Shares Vaporized

Leave a comment

Seattle’s own Natalie Lew and her project known as Sea Lemon really caught my attention during SXSW last March with her brand of dreamy and airy indie pop. Today I am delighted to share why she caught my attention with this delightful new single called “Vaporized.” Lew builds this delicate pop sound, but then also builds on it with a slowly driving and intensifying sound along with perfectly placed, and expertly written, lyrics. It’s sure to improve your day with every listen.

This single is part of a new EP entitled Stop at Nothing due out on August 25th via Luminelle Recordings.
