Sorry I Missed This: Grave Goods

Leave a comment

Members of September Girls and Girls Names you say? How the hell did I miss this new stuff from Grave Goods? How did I not even know this band existed? Well, I’m here to rectify my blogging error jamming out to this incredible video from the band, and talking a little bit about this great single from their forthcoming EP. The song has a heavy stomp to it, sort of a meditative brood that’s all about the power of the vocals driving things forward. As we near the song’s middle, the meditative state is replaced by this forceful rhythmic pulse, adding energy that surely satisfies any listener. Their Tuesday. Nothing Exists EP is streaming out there for you now!

Fuzzy Noise from Cruising

artworks-000075338379-2d6pfx-t500x500Mondays always start off a little slowly, so I wanted to make sure you had something really noisy and amped up to get you going while you roll into the office.  I stumbled across this tune from Cruising and realized that it absolutely has to make its way into your rotation this morning. Rumor on the street is that the band is made up of various members of September Girls, Sea Pinks and Girls Names, which means we’re guaranteed to love them.  All that matters is that the song is this female-fronted sludgy rocker; vocals are shouted from a distance, breaking through the wall of noise.  Gotta get rad this morning, then pick up the single from Soft Power Records.

New Music from September Girls + SXSW

Leave a comment

septemberWe were definitely some of the first folks to cover the dream pop of September Girls, thanks to the work of our friends at Matinee Recordings.  But, it’s high time we threw something new your way from these lovely ladies.  They’ll be releasing their album, Cursing the Sea, via Fortuna Pop on March 11th, offering up this dreamy rock that is begging for you to sink your teeth into.  And, if that wasn’t enough, the ladies will be heading our way in Austin to play a few sets at SXSW, so if you’re going to be in town, you best get acquainted with them now before they’re the next big thing.

Dreamy Girl Pop from September Girls

Leave a comment

septemberFor those of you looking for someone to temporarily, or permanently, replace your Vivian Girls/Dum Dum Girls fix, there’s no one out there doing a better job than September Girls.  This new tune opens up with this pounding drum, as a washed out vocal enters the fold.  Guitars are lightly dancing around in the background, swinging this dreamy bit of garage-pop our way.  The band’s released a handful of singles with some of our favorite labels, like Matinee, but they’ll be releasing their full length debut on Fortuna Pop in just a short bit of time. We’ll keep you posted, but enjoy this sweet jam.

New Hit from September Girls

Leave a comment

I love writing about the bands on Matinee Recordings; it makes it so easy as they almost never miss.  The newest installation to their storied stable is Dublin’s September Girls, a five piece group specializing in bringing a blend of atmospheric post rock and girl group harmonies.  It’s pretty much a perfect blend of all your favorite things, uniting noisier pop with your tendency to wax nostalgic about a more pure rock n’ roll sound.  You better get your hands on it now, as the history of the band shows that there music is being gobbled up quickly all over the globe, so chances are this 7″ EP won’t be around for too long.
