Dylan Fox & the Wave
Tricks After listening to their EP, Fuzz Dylan Fox & the Wave had me listening. The two brothers from Oakland CA, Dylan Fox & Sean Fox, have since recorded another EP entitled Tunnelvision, that they’ll be releasing it April 26th. The sound is dirty, sweaty, garage(y) rock and
Aloe Blacc
Check out the official video for Aloe Blacc’s Loving You is Killing Me. Its a pretty basic video, but its a song I really like. Aloe Blacc’s soul music is just fantastic… and well worth listening multiple times. Buy Aloe Blacc’s recently released album: Good Things
The Paris Mob
Shouldve Known Better by theparismob The Paris Mob is a 4 piece from London formed recently (October 2010). They produce a modern 80’s influenced sound with synth atmospheres and jangly guitars. Its ultimately a warm and shiny sound that sounds very promising. I look forward to hearing a complete
Apache Relay
Home Is Not Places Nashville rockers The Apache Relay will release their second album, American Nomad, on April 12th via Thirty Tigers. I missed posting this track but it got brought to my attention again. Home Is Not Places is about the home sickness the band feels while on the
The Strokes
Machu Picchu Another track off the Strokes upcoming album, Angles (out next week), hit the net. It’s a bright, seemingly 80’s influenced song. Now that I’ve heard a few of these songs off the album my managed expectations have been met it’s time to get pretty
Jason Isbell
Codeine Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit will be releasing a new album, Here We Rest, come April 12th via Lightning Rod Records. The single off the album, Codeine, is a country twinged track with a similar feeling to its title. It’s a sleepy, slow paced, lazy song thats
PJ Harvey
PJ Harvey released another video from her album, Let England Shake. The video in question is for the song, The Glorious Land, a little unsafe for the motion sensitive viewers. Enjoy the video and buy Let England Shake
JBM
Check out the new video from JBM for song ‘In A Different Time.’ The footage is absolutely gorgeous, it really lends itself to the very personal sounding song. Most of the video appears to be home video footage. A very cool look and a perfect visual for his lush and
Larcenist
Leon Boston based band, Larcenist contacted me recently with a new EP titled, We Become the Hunted, a 5 song delight of the folk/americana influence with the caveat of “if you play it twice it’ll be a LP.” Well, I played it a few more times than that
Generationals
Check out the strange video for Generationals’ Ten-Twenty-Ten; it looks like something from an early 90’s Television spot. Everything the Generationals have been putting out lately has been something that I’ve really gotten in to. More than interested in hearing what they’ve got coming as soon as
Okkervil River
Wake and Be Fine It’s been a long while since Will Sheff and the boys of Okkervil River have released a new album. Fortunately, we’ve got one right on our doorstep as its due out 5/10 via Secretly Canadian. Check out the first single, wake and be
Wolf Gang
I’ve been catching songs from Wolf Gang, the project of 23 year-old London multi-instrumentalist Max McElligott, “Dancing with the Devil” the second single from his forthcoming, Suego Faults (3/21 in UK). But when I see him play acoustic (see back to back) it’s even better. This video
