We were super stoked to have Two-Man Giant Squid play one of our SXSW parties, and they absolutely crushed it, with several friends unaware of the band commenting on their solid performance. They’ve evolved over the years, and I love how this new single (and 7″) embraces their wholeness; the group is a sum of all its parts, and while half the vocals here are brave and punchy, the joy in the song comes when everyone works together for their chorus. They’re constantly walking a line between dance number and cone-shattering rocker; they mix in both on this go round, which we’re hoping you’ll love. The 7″ is available today via Mint 400/Trash Casual.

We covered new stuff from the Gotobeds and Reds, Pinks and Purples, plus we got to highlight longtime favorites like The High Water Marks and Exploding Flowers, just to name a few. We had some quick SXSW interviews with Cloth, Snacktime, Last Waltzon, Two Man Giant Squid and Saint Blonde, so all get a little feature loved today, along with the rest of the weekly bangers.
