Pristine Rock From Holy Golden

September 20, 2018 nicole.baumann Leave a comment

Holy Golden are a duo out of New York comprised of Leslie Schott and Andrew Valenti. Together, they make dream pop mixed with 90s alt-rock that will have you coming back time and time again. The latest from them is “Wheel of Fortune,” which reminds me vocally of The Cranberries mixed with Evans The Death–that kind of immaculate and crisp angelic voice. Instrumentally, the track is sparse, letting each element take up just the right amount of space before the track really builds up. Give it a listen below.

Brand New Protomartyr

May 3, 2018 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Everyone’s favorite band Protomartyr has teamed up with Kelley Deal to record a brand new EP. What’s most impressive is that Kelley’s entered the vocal fray with Joe Casey, offering up a soft supporting vocal behind Joe’s darkened howl. I think of their latest works, this might be the strongest piece; I love how the song opens up in the middle, allowing musicianship to flex its muscles. Of course, that mid track solace is destroyed by a few more Casey/Deal vocal bursts, before descending into a smashing golf ball drive! Look for the Consolation EP to drop on June 15th via Domino!
