Last Week’s Jams (9.29 – 10.3)

Leave a comment

As we poured through B. Gray’s photo coverage of Levitation, we also were able to get in some pretty solid tracks, even a premiere here and there, so a pretty busy week on our side. We did some Austin repping with that new Mugger tune on Friday, if you dare to let it rip! Dropped brand new stuff from Strange Passage, Marni and the Lions Constellation, all which are worthy of your listening. Plus, even got to stretch our taste a bit with the likes of Greg Weeks, Devin Shaffer and Magic Fig, so feel free to step outside the confines of today’s indie rock playlist!

The Lions Constellation Return with New Moon Rising

Leave a comment

Those of you who’ve followed the last couple of decades of shoegaze and dreampop should already be familiar with Spanish act The Lions Constellation (featuring RJ from Lost Tapes). But, they’ve only had two releases, that is until now…today they announce their brand new LP, New Moon Rising. We’re fortunate to offer you the first listen, with this brightly twisting guitar dancing in the forefront, then peeling back so the vocals can soothe from the core of the tune. Those notes get to soar a little bit in the chorus, with a fiery wall of distortion lifting up the melody as “but if you…” crests and rides atop the mix. They’ve grasped the perfect balance here too, as nothing seems too bold or too melodic, all of the things mixing and melding together into a great ball of noise…even as the track pushes towards a sort of mini-breakdown that opens up again to the chorus. They’re brand new LP will be out on November 21st via Shelflife in the States and Make Me Happy/Too Good to Be True in Europe.

Bops from June 9 – 18

We were rocking some sweet playlists, letting you catch up on what we’d been jamming on through the past week, but then we went on vacation and fell behind. So, you’ve got a whole whole lotta music to enjoy today, plus some hits from some records that came out during that time too! Just a collection of hits, and of course I’m starting it off with that ridiculously solid Wet Leg song. Enjoy my friends. Happy Monday.

Pleased to Meet You: The Lions Constellation

Spanish outfit The Lions Constellation has some familiar faces, namely RJ Sinclair from ATH faves Lost Tapes. This time RJ and friends are ditching the playful side of indiepop to give us these heavy walls of noise, but as anything with Sinclair goes, there’s definitely still a huge pop bent, albeit a noisier one!I love how each song balances the sheer noise with these delicate little moments of pop writing blended into the tunes. You get three short burners, and one drawn out, exploratory tune, so it’ll be interesting to see where the band goes on their next release; you can be assured based on the tunes below that it’s going to be deliciously loud!
