ATX Spotlight: Fresh Good Field Track

Leave a comment

goodyPaul Price is one busy guy, though most Austin musician’s are nowadays.  He’s been working on two projects and their releases, Reservations and Good Field, his baby…we’ll focus, for now, on the latter.  I’ve played this tune several times, and honestly, I’m really impressed with the growth of the band.  They’ve long been tossed in the realm of dream pop/indiepop here in Austin, but this takes on almost a Vile/Leithauser/Springsteen feel, though spun through the unique ears of Mr. Price.  If this song’s any indication, their new record, Future Me, is going to be on a lot of local year end lists…and hopefully beyond; look for it on July 28th.

Another Friday Fun Jam from Seapony

Leave a comment

poniesI swear just a few weeks ago I had a Friday tune from Seapony to share with you, and now the band are right back at it again. In listening to the band’s first few singles off their new album, it seems like they’ve upped the production, or the recording itself; the wall of gaze that lurked in earlier efforts has been pulled back for a more direct pop sensibility.  Still, that doesn’t mean the band’s wistful style is gone, just turned a little left is all.  Look for their new record, A Vision, which the band will be releasing themselves, on July 31st.

Felt Like Posting This Radio Dept Song

Leave a comment

occupiedA few days ago this Radio Dept song was birthed into the world, and while I’m a bit behind things, I had to get it up.  The band has long been one of those mysteries in the music world that begs your attention, yet declines to play by the normal rules.  They release on their own terms, like they did this week with their Occupied EP.  As per usual, they mix electronic music with varying arrangements, though this track relies more heavily on those beats.  It’s a smooth piece of electronic pop, embraced by casual vocal delivery that dares you to turn your ears away.  You can grab the EP from Labrador Records in stores now.

Playful Single from Owl & Mouse

Leave a comment

owlzImmediately, there’s a simplicity to this song from Owl & Mouse.  It’s just a little ukulele backed by a solemn piano chord, soon accompanied by Hannah Botting’s voice. Still, the basic approach wraps itself around your ears, drawing you close into the lyrics, discussing the emotions of saying goodbye.  As the song unfolds there’s some really lush accompaniment filling in the space that lays empty…there’s added strings and really light percussion.  It’s a remarkable start for the group’s debut, Departures, which is being released by Fika Recordings later this year.  Find yourself falling in love with this number today.

Bright Pop from Waves of the Echo

Leave a comment

wavesOur Finnish friends over in Soliti just turned 4 years old, and they aim to keep going strong with this huge pop hit from Waves of the Echo.  The band ready their new album, Fading Daylight, Bright Nights, and with it will come a huge sound of synth driven pop rock that’s filled to the brim with hooks.  If you’re looking to discard modern tropes completely, throw back with this jam, reminiscent of 80s dance clubs…only with a huge wall of sound.  Their debut is out now, so grab it if you’re into great pop music.

More Reason to Love EZTV

Leave a comment

ezThose of you who’ve been following these pages the last few months have surely caught wind of my adoration for EZTV.  Admittedly, they’re touching on all sorts of musical touchstones, but this slow stomping single is perhaps my favorite off their new LP, Calling Out.  I can hear early moves between glam rock and punk, a melding that took a lot of care to pull of with such seamlessness. As if there weren’t enough singles to love this record, this is just another reason why EZTV are poised to win over everyone on July 10th via Captured Tracks.

Fresh Indiepop from The Popguns

Leave a comment

popLast year the Popguns returned via Matinee Recordings, making a big splash with throngs of indiepop masses.  But, it looks like once that songwriting bug hit the band, they couldn’t stop, already prepping the release of a new EP.  The opening track, “Still Waiting for the Winter” should already have piqued your interest, having appeared on the aforementioned album, Pop Fiction.  But, there will also be three exclusive new tracks to reassure your fandom.  I’ve posted one of those new tracks below, and it’s perfect…no need for more words other than that.  Look for the Still Waiting for the Winter EP this July.

Brilliant New Grave Babies Tune

Leave a comment

graveOn their last album, Grave Babies hit heavy and hard, busting the cones on many a speakers.  But, they’re readying a new album, Holographic Violence, and it’s set to be something entirely different.  Elements of darkness still pervade their latest single, from the warped tones on the vocals to the emotional draw that takes center stage.  Still, listen to the guitars that open the song; you’ll hear that wayward shimmering pop element that basically made bands in the early shoegaze era so intoxicating.  The band’s new LP will be out via Hardly Art on July 24th.

Fresh Tunes from Tijuana Panthers

Leave a comment

tijuanaThe last time out for Tijuana Panthers I was totally in love.  I kept talking to friends about Wayne Interest, yet no one seemed to listen, sadly. But, if you listen to this song, I hope it encourages you to go back and check out the band’s work; it’s perhaps some of my secret favorite tunes.  There’s something about this song, be it the line “feel like a cowboy” or just the Western jangle rock approach of the guitars, but it has its hooks in me. I hear there’s more great news about more music coming our way soon, so we’ll get you that once it’s in our hands. For now…just enjoy.

Missed This Cairo Gang Tune

Leave a comment

cairogangIt’s never fun to come home to a mass quantity of emails after a brief vacation, except for when you go through and find a gem like this tune from The Cairo Gang.  I’m pretty sure that their early success has built a broader audience thirsting for this new record. The track lives somewhere in the realm between Americana stomp and American power-pop, filled with this great vocal that I can’t get out of my head (does anyone else hear Pollard?). It’s the second single from the band’s new album, Gone Missing, being released on June 23rd on God?.
