Right down to the wire, with a trifecta of exceptional albums that lead the pack this weekend. KRAUS lights it up as only KRAUS can: sandpaper textures and hooks that pull you in. Slow Crush new album takes in some slowcore influence, and makes you participate in the unfolding colours and textures. And Jo's Moving Day (pictured above AND below) is a dark horse candidate for album of the year, […]
If you've got a craving for new, cutting edge sounds, you're our kind of people. And we've done the work to ensure you're entertained all weekend, any hour of day or night. We're especially keen to share the newest sounds from Hatchie, Crystal Canyon, Fever Cult, THALA, Basement Revolver (like sugar for the soul), Soul Blind, The Acharis (pictured above, a torrid sonic introduction), Still Corners, Slow Crush, The Real […]
Bandcamp Friday was a watershed, a deluge, and we stood under it, arms (and ears) open. There, I've drawn you a half-decent word picture, we can all pack up and go home. But, seriously, we're better prepared for a weekend of sonic excellence than usual thanks to the wheelbarrowful of quality new sounds released just today. First, we catch up with the recent quality output from Bleach Lab (pictured above). […]
Your social isolation station has your weekend covered with fresh sounds and amazing artists. Our headliners: Shimmerance (pictured above). Their debut self-titled LP is wall-to-wall with sonic gems, and it's just the distraction that hungry ears need in these days. Propulsive, tuneful, fuzzy, dreamy, it's the total package. You'll be hearing MUCH more from this talented squad on our airwaves in weeks to come, and we're pretty sure you'll love […]
So much to share for New Tracks Weekend. We've got hands on the new single from Belgium's Slow Crush (pictured above), which got us all bendy at the knees. For those wondering if there would ever be a follow-up to last May's Ease EP? The forthcoming Aurora LP is set to prove dominant in this category, if the title track is any indication. Preordering now, releases 28 August on Holy […]
There is no letup. Impressive new music is coming fast and furious. As the weather turns warm, so do the tones. The new Pia Fraus single/EP is near release via Seksound label, with contributions from scene luminaries like Airiel and Mahogany, and it's worth the wait. Following two electric performances on American network television, Tennis System dropped their new single early this morning, and it has all the volcanic energy you've […]
Pity the fools wot must compete with Slowdive this weekend. I mean, right? Label owners and bands marking calendar 6 to 11 months in advance, plotting official release date. Then the Slowdive tsunami hits, and all boats are swept to shore. We empathize. However, it's our official job to celebrate all the quality new releases, this and every day. So we'll celebrate Slowdive's new self-titled album, their first new music in 22 […]
