Snake Lips Drop East Coast
We get it. Mondays are a total drag. So you’ll need some fuel to get your day going now with some proper rock n’ roll from Maine’s Snake Lips. They’ve got this thundering groove that courses through their latest single, letting the bass build bobbing waves beneath the smashing of rolling drum hits. The whole time, the rhythm section is competing with the surf-y garage vibes of the guitar; it wriggles in and out with fury…perhaps a precursor to the growl of the vocals that opens up the edge in the track’s later moment. Look for the group to drop Cat Beach on July 25th via Repeating Cloud Records.
Last week was a rather busy one on our end, and I remember Wednesday giving me headaches in terms of what all we could cover. Alas, we had to start this week’s jams coverage off with the latest from Allo Darlin‘, who announced their first LP in some time. There was definitely some post-punk vibes cooking with acts like Artificial Go and Teethe dropping super cool new tunes that I couldn’t stop playing around our little house in the burbs. Had some old regulars pop up too, like Strawberry Whiplash and Welcome Strawberry; it was a strawberry themed week I supposed. You’ll also find some super cool oddball tunes too from the likes of Kilynn Lunsford and Vov Vov! Get it all below:
