Last Week’s Jams (7.21 – 7.25)

My summer vacation is about to wrap up, so I’ve been trying to cram as much rock n’ roll into the site as I can, and I feel like nearing 30 new songs is a pretty solid outing. There was new stuff from ever-present acts like Gregor, Cate Le Bon, Giant Day and more. Plus, there were some brand newish acts popping up on the scene that I think are certainly worth everyone’s time: The Cords and the Cindys, both UK outfits oddly enough. Some ATX love for Stella and the Very Messed and the Wild Kindness both dropping new tunes. Plus, there are several slow burns that will space out the listen, so you’ve got almost two hours of last week’s jams to enjoy!

Windows Drop Light in the Dark Single

When you press play on the new single from Windows, embrace that heavy groove from the bass line; it’s the backbone of the opening moments, tugging on you and bringing you into the band’s fold. They drench the track in a spaced-out sunny psychedelia, letting guitars spiral and spin off into the landscape, then returning to the initial groove so as to set the track back on its rails. That train only begins to pick up steam about midway, taking that heavy groove and letting the guitars ring a bit more sharply, with a faint little uptick swinging in there too, giving a bit of boogie back to the listener as vocals dreamily crest and ride in the background. This is the second new single we’ve heard from the group as of late, with the band recently wrapping up a little West Coast run as they prep for a new full-length on the horizon.
