New Music | Perfume Genius – All Waters

Perfume Genius – All Waters A follow up to one of last years best albums, Perfume Genius is about to drop a very strangely named album, Put Your Back N 2 It, included is this poignant, raw song titled “All Waters,” which to me feels more like a teaser than an actual song.  Its quite emotional feeling and actually really beautiful.  Looking forward to hearing the rest of this album.

New Music | Radiation City – Babies

Radiation City – Babies Dream poppers Radiation City released another single titled “Babies,” off their The Hands that Take You full length.  Babies is a dreamy, distant feeling track similar to their “Color of Industry,” that is driven by a  subtle drum loop and employs tons of vocal reverb.  Its a slow burner track that gets better with more listens. Buy The Hands that Take You On Tour: 12/05 – Sacramento, CA – Luigi’s Fungarden 12/06 – San Francisco, CA – Bottom of the Hill 12/07 – San Diego, CA – Tin Can Alehouse 12/08 – Los Angeles, CA –…

Check out Spectrals, aka 21 yr old Louis Jones’ project that mixes pop / soul / doo wop to put together this fantastic vintage eclecticism.  In 2 minutes this song will have you reaching for the repeat button, vibrant, colorful and fun Jones produced an album nearly on his own (with the help of his brother on drums).  Confetti is the toothache sweet single off his album Bad Penny, available now.

Video | Deer Tick – Main Street

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNG6aK81ZAk[/youtube] Deer Tick’s Divine Providence could be one of the best albums of the year with its irreverant, boozed up, rootsy rock sound.  It’s certainly one of my favorites, and quickly became an album I could not shut off. Check out the video for Main Street, the next single off the aforementioned album, the video is like jackass meets rock & roll… explosions, urination, and set destruction. Buy Name Your Link

Video | The Fling – Dogpile

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JLSGt5iF2Ks[/youtube] Long Beach CA’s The Fling are an eclectic kind of rock band that clash together 60’s pop with a bit of contemporary indie-rock.  The surf pop guitars jangle, vocals reverb and swirl and the downtrodden lyrics feel particularly upbeat.  The video itself features the bandmembers meeting their demise from an unknown woman (jilted lover?).  Its a fun video and a damn catchy song.

New Music | Kingsley Flood – Black Boots

Kingsley Flood – Black Boots Strap on your boots, our friends here in Boston, Kingsley Flood have released another track off their upcoming EP Colder Still.  This song has been a staple of their live shows and for great reason.  The pounding drums, the trash can clangs, string arrangements all build a sound of rollicking, boot stomping party in an old western saloon.

New Music | Bowerbirds – Tuck the Darkness In

Bowerbirds – Tuck the Darkness In

This sweet morsel of news really perked up my day. A new track from North Carolina’s Bowerbirds, and a date for their next album. The lead single “Tuck the Darkness In” is here today off their upcoming record (The Clearing … out March ’12) and it is quite awesome.  The gentle nature of this song and soft warm melodies pour out over lightly strummed guitars and tender key arrangements.  The song comes to life and relents to a full on electric auditory modality that feels so good and earnest as they exclaim, “We Tuck the Darkness In.”

New Music | Plants & Animals – Lightshow

Plants & Animals – Lightshow Plants and Animals’ new album, The End of That, hits next year in February, but we’re lucky to get to hear a new track off the Montreal trio’s album.  Lead single, “Lightshow,” deploys a more acoustic sound similar to that of their first album, but its where the acoustic meets electric is where “Lightshow” stands out.  Its slightly melancholic, and becomes bombastic as it crescendos into a solo and into gang harmonies that sound really great.  Seeing these guys live really opened my eyes to their music, and this sound will definitely translate in that…
