Good Morning Drop Two New Singles

Leave a comment

It seems like our pals in Melbourne based Good Morning have been a mainstay on these pages for many years now and we always eagerly await new music from the band. Imagine the excitement when today we got word of not one, but two new singles as part of a new double release through their label Polyvinyl. The first track, “dog years,” features that familiar, jangly sound from the lads while the second track “queen of comedy,” is a more somber and mellow tune. Somehow both compliment each other beautifully.

And hey! Good Morning are coming to Austin later this month with Frankie Cosmos at Mohawk. Tickets are available now.

Stream Debut LP From dreamatx

Leave a comment

Nikolas Das is a Dallas, TX based musician who, for a time, made music with the criminally underrated shoegaze band Kraus. Recently Das stepped out on his own, holed up in the Woodstock area of upstate New York, and recorded a whole bunch of new tunes under the moniker dreamatx. Many of those new jams have been compiled into a 10 song LP entitled living in memory of something sweet which you can stream in it’s entirety below. Be ready for some heavy noise rock, with emotional and raw vocals as if Nothing made a band with members of Frou Frou. If you’re into it, physical copies are available for purchase from Memorials of Distinction.

Semiwestern Share Pose Single

Leave a comment

I meant to get this new Semiwestern track up last week; it was released on Friday, brandishing a very particular brand of Texas slowcore. When I listened, I was struck by how lonesome the song felt; it feels like you’ve been sort of isolated or suspended in space, yet your not quite complaining. As I spent more time, the details surrounding the core give the song this cavernous feel behind, still making you feel small, albeit part of something larger. That’s the thing that keeps me coming back here, its like you get to soak in your solitude, take a bit of respite from all that’s around you. Feel free to get lost inside this one, coming to you courtesy of Spirit Goth.

New Single & Video From Tele Novella

Leave a comment

Well sometimes we slip and miss things from time to time as we wade through the mass amount of submissions and Olivia Rodrigo emails. Though we may have slipped and are a tad late on this news, we will always find time to boost our own and promote old local friends. Once such local indie legend are our pals in Tele Novella who just released this stunning new single “Hard-Hearted Way” with an accompanying, retro grade video. This band continues to pump out a staggering catalog of delightful music.

This track comes with an announcement of a new album called Poet’s Tooth coming out on October 6th via Kill Rock Stars. Pre-orders are live now.

Heavy Meddo Share Atonal Choir File

Leave a comment

Austin’s own Bill Baird is somewhat of a local legend at this point in the underground music scene here in town. He’s long been involved both as a solo artist as well as bands and projects touching on a massive expanse of genres and styles. His latest work, Heavy Meddo, sees him joined by pals Jonathan Horne, Jordan Johns, and Ethan Smith for a psych heavy, sludgy new form of rock music. New single “Yearning Yuppie Honor Roll,” is an absolute slap in the face of an introduction to the new material and upcoming album. Heavy AF.

Pre-orders for the new album entitled Atonal Choir File are live now.

We are down to the last few days around the ATH offices before we wind down and head out into the madness that is SXSW next week. Prior to that, it seems fitting for one of our last interviews to be from Austin indie legends Wild Child. They’ve been around the scene for what seems like ages now and we were super pumped for them to answer our interview questions. Hit the jump for interview, music and show dates.

Meet the SXSW Band: Semiwestern

Leave a comment

The end of this week will see the official kickoff of SXSW, which brings tons of bands and tech companies and movies to our town, so we’ve been trying to highlight some of the acts on the music side. This round, we get to lock into a Texas artist, Semiwestern, coming at us from about 3.5 hours North. There’s a full-length from the artist slated for later this year, and perhaps you’ll get a chance to taste some of his Italian cookies!

Say Hello To Angel Twin

Leave a comment

Well things are winding down around the ATH offices for the holiday break, but we’ve still got a few more tunes this week before shutting things down. Up today is a new tune, from a relatively new project, called “Ride” by way of Fort Worth upstart Angel Twin. It’s like they’ve taken some of the best parts of shoegaze and then melding it with super dreamy and bright elements of indie pop. This is going to be hitting all of my Holiday playlists for the weekend.

Old Fire Share Window Without a World ft. Julia Holter

Leave a comment

There’s this building tranquility in the forthcoming LP from John Mark Lapham’s Old Fire project, and perhaps no track on the album better epitomizes that than this carefully constructed new single, featuring Julia Holter. Everything about this tune feels like slow-motion, like some sort of glitch in the matrix where you can see/hear the goings-on, but only watch from your window. Julia’s voice is actually a sample Lapham used from “World,” but he’s almost made it robotic, which only increases the solitude of the vocal in the midst of this ever expansive tune. It’s really a quieting journey you won’t want to skip in this chaotic mess of a world. Voids will be out on November 4th via Western Vinyl.
