Nate Dionne Drops Drawn On Single

July 13, 2023 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Longtime Philly (thought currently in Connecticut) musician Nate Dionne is definitely making bold steps with his forthcoming Fantasy LP, and this new track finds him sort of all over the place in the best way. I feel like this ballad strum that opens the tune set me up perfectly, stretching the tune before fuzzed out riffs jump into the picture and everything gets instantly more full in the speakers. That heavy vibe constantly is fighting with the melodic nature that Dionne creates; the song’s latter half takes that and pushes it even further with a whole of musicianship flexing. Fantasy will be released on July 25th via Gentle Reminder Records.

Nate Dionne Announces Fantasy EP; Shares In Blood

June 16, 2023 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

This Nate Dionne tune is definitely a great way to kick off a Friday, if we might. The song’s got this old-school punk swagger to it, though there’s this modern rambunctiousness to the songwriting that brings a whole new life to the track. The gang vocals in the background seem to add this almost live nature to it, creating this atmosphere of joyousness and punk house frivolity. Still, there’s also this melodic bit, and I’m probably way off base here, but I keep hearing like a mix of Billy Idol meets “Head On” by the JaMC, so there’s also this sort of nod to everything before, while still keeping it punk. Fantasy will be out on Jul 25th via Gentle Reminder and Home Late.

Have You Heard John Galm?

March 6, 2015 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Well, just in case you didn’t know, John Galm is the man behind countless bands like Snowing or Slow Warm Death, you should take a listen to his work now. While those acts have their own distinct style, he’s taken a much more stripped down approach with his solo work. Late last year he released Sky of No Stars, which I passed on for some reason or another…but I won’t be passing now that the LP is getting an album release via Square of Opposition Records. You can preorder it HERE and stream the LP below.
