Another Rocker from Vaguess

We’re pushing towards the weekend, so you need something energetic to pick up the pace and get you there…especially if you hit the town last night. I’ve written about Vaguess before, and while there first single was an energetic burst of noisy rock, this one has a whole lot more hook to it, though it’s equally as short. I like the fact that they’re mixing up the sounds slightly, which should make Guilt Ring steer clear of falling in the trap of redundancy. The album is being released by Sinderlyn next week, March 3rd to be exact. Bring me those rocking hooks!

Jaye Bartell Shares New Track With Angel Olsen

Jaye Bartell has been crafting poetic tunesfor a while now, spinning new tunes to match the passing of time. 2017 sees him recording new material, including these two tracks you can take a listen to below. While both feature his distinct vocals and elegant songwriting, each has their own strengths. The first song, “Dance With Me,” includes the beautiful addition of vocals from Angel Olsen to harmonize with Bartell’s dulcet tones. It’s a gorgeous track that reminds me a bit of some Silver Jews tunes. If you stick around and spin the second song, “Slow Going,” you’ll be pulled in by the storytelling that Bartell brings to the table. Take a listen and enjoy these beautiful tunes.

Novella Release Intoxicating New Single

It takes two minutes of pulsating notes to mesmerize the listener on this new Novella tune before anything grand happens. For me, that’s a promising sign, as it builds the anticipation, then finally unleashingquiet notes and soft vocals to the delight of your ears. Such an approach is only used carefully, and few have mastered it with the quality and grace this foursome has, thus counting me as one of their many supporters. Change of State, their new album, will be released by Sinderlyn next Friday, February 17th, just in time to wrap yourself in the warm musical blanket the band is bringing forth…unless of course you’re with us in Austin…then it’ll be about 95 degrees.

Vaguess Announce New Album

Feel like I’ve ignored some of the more rocking tunes coming my way as of late; it’s been more of a subdued month. But, this Vaguess tune caught my ear almost immediately. Drums roll in from the get-go, with the guitar squealing through the amplifiers. The vocals jump out, taking on that spastic tone you’d expect from the likes of Parquet Courts, only with a little bit more of a guttural note to them. Then, with a wall of huge noise, the song’s over…and, sure, I’d love more, but this song is just enough to make us beg for more. We’ll get precisely that when they unleash Guilt Ring on March 3rd via Sinderlyn.

More To Love From Tim Cohen

unnamed-6One of my most anticipated releases of 2017 is shaping up to be Tim Cohen‘s pure solo effort,Luck Man, which is due out, lucky for us, at the beginning of next year. We’ve already heard some great singles from the gentleman from this album, and now he’s given us another one with “Meat is Murder,” which reveals that this new album is going to be far from one dimensional. The last track we heard in “John Hughes” was a bouncy indie pop number, whereas this one, as its title suggests, is a bit darker than the last one. The guitars are a sharper, and yet lower in the mix, the percussion and bass combine for a low simmer, and Cohen’s vocals are deeper for the majority of the track. Take a listen and get as excited as I am for this new album, then go pre-order it here before its Jan. 20th release via Sinderlyn.

Sorry I Missed This: Tim Cohen Announces New Music

timcohenI wonder when Tim Cohen ever sleeps, and if he does, is he writing songs while he sleeps? Last week he announced another new release…though not with Magic Trick nor Fresh & Onlys…just Tim Cohen. This new track, however, is something as enchanting, if not more so, than his various projects. His vocals capture something, and while the music is good enough, you can’t pull yourself away from that voice. It’s accented by female accompaniment in points, but the clarity on his voice alone warrants repeated listens. I’m not sure there’s anything this guy can’t do, so I’ll gladly spend time with his new album, Luck Man, when it’s released by Sinderlyn on January 20th.

Happy Punk from Girl Tears

girltearsI cringe at the word pop punk,so I wanted to stay away from that with the latest single from Girl Tears, though I think there are definitely poppies elements hanging about in this single. That said, it’s a furious tune, hitting you with pummeling drums right from the start; it sort of reminds me of the hook laden punk that Terry Malts bring to the table. As quickly as the song bursts into play, it wraps up and is over…that might be the song’s only detracting quality. You will have more tunes to enjoy soon, however, as the group releases Woke Against the Tide on October 28th via Sinderlyn.

Blast New Music from Girls Tears

girlsStarted off softly today, but I’m ready to pick up the energy as I head towards the weekend, and what better way than this new jam from Girls Tears. It’s a full-fledged guitar attack on your ears, with drums bashing in the background. I love the way the vocals were recorded, almost as if the band is containing a sense of madness that’s spinning out of control. But, if you know me, you know I like the underlying sense of pop sensibility, and that’s definitely at play here too! Look for the band’s Woke Against the Tide to hit stores on October 28th via Sinderlyn.

Striking Tune from Jaye Bartell

jayeEver stumble across one of those tracks that stuck with you for an eternity, yet you couldn’t quite explain it? This brand new song from Jaye Bartell might be precisely the tune you’ve been looking for. It’s got quite simple lyrical content, merely a recounting of the mundane. But, both the guitar tones working against the heavy voice of Bartell really sank in, getting under my skin like few things do. His latest album, Light Enough, is being released by Sinderlyn on April 29th, so be sure to keep your sights on what could be a really special collection of tracks.

Chilled Out Vibe from Homeshake

sinderlynSettling into the middle of the week? The bets way to due that is to sit back and listen to this ultra-relaxed new single from Homeshake.  There’s definitely a little bit of an indie meets R&B groove going on, but the synth work is minimal, so I don’t feel like I’m being overwhelmed by beats and orchestration.  Honestly, you can just sit back and let yourself fall into this song, which is a fairly rare experience for me.  Look for his new album, Midnight Snack, to come out on 9/18 via Sinderlyn.
