PREMIERE: Vermont’s Tom Weir readies new EP as Old Moon, shares jangle-pop smash ‘All It Takes’
It would be fair to say Tom Weir’s been putting in work. In the past year alone, the Vermont-based artist has released two albums, a rarities compilation, an EP and a single, and he shows no signs of slowing down with his output of winsome, jangly, melodic post-punk. In recent years, the subgenre has been …
PREMIERE: Up Is The Down Is The offer a ‘Memento’ as they prep new album for next month
It’s been a couple of years since we last heard from Idaho’s Up Is The Down Is The – their most recent album, The Mind Strays, arrived in June of 2020, and they’ve been quiet since then, until recently. No news did however turn out to be good news in this case, as the quartet …
PREMIERE: Plastic Harpoons ready debut album for October, stream moving new single ‘Gettysburg’
The most surprising thing about the latest offering from Santa Barbara’s Plastic Harpoons is that it exists at all. The quartet announced their debut album last month, and its affecting second single ‘Gettysburg’ looked like it wouldn’t make the cut for the record for a while, certainly not in its original form; it was, however, …
PREMIERE: San Fermin announce ‘Your Ghost’ EP for September, share the turbulent ‘Someone You Call Baby’
Brooklyn’s San Fermin exist in a constant state of flux, such that they see themselves as a collective moreso than a band. Buoyed by a collaborative approach that’s recently seen them work with the likes of Nico Muhly, Sorcha Richardson and Wild Pink (all of whom popped up on last December’s In This House EP), …
PREMIERE: The Rare Occasions are ‘Seasick’ on first new song of 2022
You may have heard The Rare Occasions already without knowing it; the Los Angeles trio released an album a little over a year ago called Big Whoop, which, contrary to its nonchalant title, has been doing plenty to put them on the map. It’s not even a song off that album that’s been doing the …
PREMIERE: London duo Grieving Sea prep for ‘Donewiz’ album release with the haunting ‘The Sea Devours’
Genoa-based label Brucia Records prides itself on being a home for ‘uncanny, unsettling or unusual’ music, and the forthcoming debut album by Grieving Sea certainly fits that description. The 7-track LP slots nicely into the output of a label that’s put out material spanning a whole host of disparate subgenres like black metal, doom and …
Premiere – Affiliate Links previews debut album ‘Enough Light’ with ‘Baby’s Changing Stations’ – heartfelt indie memories revisited and revived.
After a decade with Toronto based post-rock noise-stretchers ‘Fresh Snow’, Bradley Davis a.k.a. Affiliate Links recognised the need to re-frame things. Looking back to this time last year he recalls feeling “…compelled to make music filled with words and free from the red tape that can go along with a band”. Taking advantage of the …
PREMIERE: Endearments survey breakup wreckage on huge new single ‘Too Late’
You’d do well to get on board with Brooklyn trio Endearments at this early stage of their career. They tapped Abe Seiferth to mix the song we’re premiering today. He’s worked with Nation of Language so knows a thing or two about the up-and-comers when it comes to Brooklyn synth-pop. ‘Too Late’ is the band’s …
PREMIERE: Parris Mitchell embraces his flaws on rollicking new single ‘i never said i’m perfect’
Oh boy, this is good. Say hello to Parris Mitchell; he’s from New York, and he’s got form. Not only did he release a self-titled debut EP last year, he opened his 2022 account with the vibrant ‘Super Power’ in February. At the time, he hinted there was more where that came from, and while …
