Other Lives – For 12
Paste got the honors to share Other Lives newest single ‘Tamer Animals’ (to go along with For 12) the title track on their upcoming (May 10) album which is highly anticipated and from how many times I’ve listened to it over the last few days… well worth the anticipation. Its a gorgeous, lush album that music lovers are really going to enjoy.
Other Lives are touring massively and will be in your city soon.

And arrive early because the five-piece band from Queens, New York is opening for the English indie rock band Foals. It’s been over a year since Freelance Whale’s debut album Weathervanes was released, so if I had to guess, I’d say that there’s an excellent chance that tonight we’ll get to hear some of their new stuff. They’ve released at least two singles, Enzymes and Day Off, in…
Leave a CommentThe Acre – Guilty Soul Boston’s The Acre is set to release their album Circa Trova tonight at TT the Bears place in Cambridge. The sophomore album, was recorded with help from Chris McLaughlin (Aberdeen City, Mean Creek, Township). With influences like Wilco, Bon Iver and Low Anthem in their minds they’ve created an album that merges those influences with their own style. The music is hilariously defined as ‘Amerigaze.’ A sort of Americana with the sleepy dreamy style of shoe gaze that creates this entrancing lush atmosphere that is absolutely gorgeous. This is done so well in songs in…

The country twanged slow churning track and if I’m reading it right, its about the leaving the writer’s leaving regret for leaving home.
