Charm School Slow Jam On Without a Doubt

January 14, 2025 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Imagine if Interpol weren’t so pretentious, choosing to revel in the pop side of their craft rather than push for some overly-emotive brand of post-punk. If you’ve got that sound in your mind, you’ve got the feel of the newest Charm School single, dwelling in the ethereal slowness the genre offers. At times, it seems like a bold croon, allowing the vocals to creep around behind the guitars, and in doing so, you get to kind of spin yourself about, twirling about with the crisp ring before it erupts into cacophony. Steadied and bold, this track hits the right spots; look for Debt Forever on January 24th via Surprise Mind.

Lewsberg Announce Out and About

June 20, 2023 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

If you have not purchased your tickets for the Lewsberg train, might we invite you to grab one now, as they’re sure to be one of your favorite bands…plus it’ll make you feel cool for telling your friends you were into it first. Anyways, the Dutch band announce their new LP Out and About today, dropping mixes of two of the tracks that will appear on the record. “Without a Doubt” has this spritely nature to it, just shuffling in the mix as the vocals keep things joyously grounded; it’s the precise brand of no-rock pop that the group excels at crafting. Meanwhile “Communion” feels like a pastor’s sermon delivered by someone who grew up listening to all those early Flying Nun records. Can’t say enough wonderful words about this group; Out and About is out in September; self-released, but US folks can order through 12XU.
