Last Week’s Jams, Today (2.7 – 2.11)

Jumping into this week by looking back at last week, in the most uncool fashion, using a Spotify playlist; the world’s probably going to stop dead right there. But, last week had some rad tunes, with friends Half Dream and Squiggles both jumping in with new tunes for us. Plus, we got to revisit some recents releases from Tat Songs and The High Water Marks. And ultimately, got to meet some new faces, at least to me, like Sooner and Erasers. But, I’m starting it off with that super rad Pachyman jam, so sit back and get grooving into your Monday.

Tat Songs Share Oblivion Single

Nearly 30 years into the music biz, and Tom Sadler’s continuously changing directions, adjusting sounds and collaborators, culminating in the latest Tat Songs release, Don’t Look Back. It’s a collection of songs sprouted from post-punk influences, woven into every little detail in every little song. For instance, in “Oblivion,” you get these ringing guitar notes, almost like a heavy jangle, bringing out this melodic underbelly that allows Sadler’s warmth to resonate in the vocals. One of the things I love is that there’s not a lot of urgency here, allowing the song to kind of build and tower before the vocals come into play; it’s a different spin than one gets, so you get a little more reflection to bring the guitar pop to its apex. If you’re digging it, the whole LP is out on February 22nd.
