Traitrs Drop Dream Drowning
As we get to hear more from the forthcoming Traitrs record, I’m increasingly impressed by their adherence to old school post-punk vibes, moving from the infectious into the cavernous and back. A warbling guitar note in the night opens the tune up; it’s distant and lonesome, exploring the space before a thunderous drum works its way into the picture. Even still, there’s a bit of distance in the vocals too, up until about the 1:25 mark where the synths wash in and the song moves into its sugary moments, albeit coated in macabre lyrical content. Their album Possessor will be delivered to the masses on March 13th, and will certainly captivate with its blend of exploratory post-punk sounds.
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!
