Be Captivated By This Communions Music Video

Leave a comment

unnamedYes, your time is very precious, so you’re probably wondering why I’m asking you to watch/listen to a music video that’s almost seven minutes long. But really, you need to trust me on this one, as it really is worth your time. You’ll press play on “Forget It’s a Dream” below and within the first thirty seconds the sights and sounds of Communions will ensnare your attention, so much so that at the end of the track you will be wondering where the time went and why you’re so inclined to press replay. The delightful new-wave/indie rock sound that is on the track below comes from these Danish gentlemen’s latest EP, which they’ve released through Tough Love Records. You can pick up a copy here.  Do yourself a favor and get lost in the video below.

Fuck Yeah, More New Communions

Leave a comment

front_digiMan, this Communions band has me excited for things to come.  The band blends some of that discordant dance music with 80s pop tropes.  It’s something that has the potential to carry on for a long time, especially considering that the oldest member of the band is only 21.  As of now, the tunes are good; they’re catchy, they show the spirit of the band.  Personally, I hope to see some growth, sonically, maybe taking some risks with the sound.  But, for now I’m hooked on the act, which makes their forthcoming self-titled EP quite intriguing; it’s available on June 2nd via Tough Love.

Great New Pop Track From Communions

Leave a comment

front_digiCommunions is a Copenhagen based band that both Lankford and I posted about back in October of last year.  I hadn’t heard much from the band since that time so imagine my surprise and delight when the band just sent over this awesome new track “Out of My World”.  I don’t know about you guys, but I continue to dig the beautifully quirky take on pop music.

Communions finally have a new self-titled EP due out in June on Tough Love Records.

Listen to This Dark Opus from Girls Names

Leave a comment

girlsgirlsgirlsI’ve been way into Girls Names since they first hit the shores via Slumberland Records, and while they’ve changed their sound, their music has still been relatively compelling.  Enter the new chapter for the band, the result being an 11 minute exploration into the space where bands may soon take their post-rock approach.  The track opens with digitalized foreboding before the settles into it’s circular guitar work, pushed forward by the drum work.  Don’t be worried, as the band have disguised their pop-centric leanings beneath carefully crafted swells of guitar. Look for this new Zero Triptych 12″ via Tough Love Records on May 11th.

Communions Make the Perfect Sort of Pop Music

commieThere’s really not too much information traveling about involving Communions, but one things seems to be that everyone who has taken a listen to the Danish group has found themselves falling in love.  Honestly, I hear a lot of great similarities to our boys Literature; the song below has that same jangle and there’s just a hint of obscuring vocal effects.  I think it’s the perfect way to wrap up our week here, as it’s a near perfect song.  They’ve got a Tough Love Records 7″ coming out on November 10th, so let’s hope we get to hear more from them.

Beauty From Communions

10646748_695315667227066_7770546735906319449_nCopenhagen based Communions are wooing me today with this beautiful number called “So Long Sun”.  The track starts out with some atmosphere to ease you into things, but then builds and builds into some loud, hazy pop moments of shear beauty.  All in all, this is a track worthy of a few spins today.

This song appears on a new 7″ due out from the band on November 10th via Tough Love Records.

CYMBALS Bring Their A Game

Leave a comment

cymbalsIt’s difficult in this day and age to have your hair blown back by anything, especially upon first listen, but I have to give credit to CYMBALS.  Their music on the latest single was immediately accessible, yet wholly interesting.  A deep vibe comes from the darkened corners of their music, yet a softer touch on the vocals provides listeners with the mentality of club two-stepping. I imagine this song could be played pretty much anywhere, enticing anyone to tap their feet.  The group will release Age of Fracture in February of next year via Tough Love Records.

New Rockin’ Jam From Virals

Leave a comment

Virals is the brand new garage rocking style group from former Lovvers frontman Shaun Hencher.  The recently put together group provides a style most similar to maybe Terry Malts or Ty Segall which is evidenced by the tune found below “Gloria”.  Another song from the band called “Coming Up With the Sun” can also be streamed via the soundcloud website.  A short 4 song EP, Coming Up With the Sun, will further introduce everyone to the new group on May 7th via Tough Love Records.
