Did You Listen to Blossomer?
There were a lot of really great records that dropped on Friday, and while heavy-hitters likely took the fame, I hope you will spend some time with Stray Fossa‘s latest opus, Blossomer. Those of you who are seeking out extra crisp guitar sounds will surely have this album spinning for several weeks, and opening track “Change the Film” creates the attraction instantly; it’s using these twisting little guitar lines and feathered vocals to seduce you. As you dig into the record, it’s the softness of the vocals building an intimacy between band and listener, and the production has the perfect amount of balance, letting the guitars dance and swing like on “Quiet Quitting,” though the voice still opens you up to the album’s dreamier nature. Ten tracks of magnificent guitar pop to make you swoon, so get to it and stream Blossomer below!
In playing catch-up from Spring Break, we covered quite a bit of new music, though I may have run out of steam at week’s end. Still, we brought you some new music from Austin artists like Sophia Warren, Adrian Quesada, Will Johnson and Day Friend. Unfortunately, the Day Friend was your sneak peek before their show this Friday at 13th Floor, so we’ll include that in next week’s jams. We also got to premiere a brand new Why Bother jam, so be sure to give that one a listen. Some of my personal favorites from the week are down below, like a new Dumb Things single, as well as fresh Pachyman to boot. And as always, the sounds are all over the place, from the folk of Swedes Egentid to the crazy joyousness of Johnny Maraca‘s garage punk! Play it all below!
I know I know. Playlists via Spotify are quickly becoming passe, and rightfully so, but at the moment, there’s still not an easily manipulated to collect songs from various places and put them into one killer playlist. So while we wait on Bandcamp to figure it out, let’s just ignore the devil in the corner. This last week we got a brand new album from Love, Burns, courtesy of us! And Jigsaw and KUS! Our homies in Brothers Griin also dropped a tune from their debut LP, not to mention a sweet jam from Skeggs. So here you go, here’s some stuff. To start Monday.
With the release of their album about a week away, I wanted to point you all in the direction of
