Circling Back on Smug Brothers

Try as I might, it simply isn’t possible to dive into every single piece of music sent my way, but I’ve found some time to go back to Smug Brother‘s latest LP. They’ve got some sonic connections to other Ohio acts, which you’ll hear, but if you listen to the tune below, what I’m really appreciating is the clarity and pop-forward focus. Guitars have that crystalline twist to them, but everything else is screaming for melody; the band don’t hold you back here either, jumping feet first into the power-pop pools of glory. If you’re digging on this, join me in circling back to Stuck on Beta, out now via Anyway Records.

Premiere: Smug Brothers Share New Single

Just because we are out here prepping for that thing going down next week, doesn’t mean the world of new music plans to stop for us. My jam(s) of the day comes by way of Columbus based outfit Smug Brothers and their new single “Take It Out On Me” with accompanying B-side “Constellation of Eight.” Both tracks offer a very throwback, DIY, sort of garage meets indie sound akin to something you might hear in the late 90s Sub Pop scene. Get your dancin’ shoes on for the A-side and then stick around for the B-side to be serenaded away.

These tracks are part of the new Smug Brothers album Stuck On Beta, which is due out on June 6th via Anyway Records.
