My new favourite song
Strand of Oaks – Rest of It
After “Radio Kids”, it’s the second single off the new album from the Philadelphia outfit. And it’s a REAL burner. Turn it up LOUD!!!
Am very curious how the album will sound as a whole, available on February 17!
My new favourite song
Hiss Golden Messenger – Biloxi
A wonderful take on classic Americana by Hiss Golden Messenger. Really looking forward to the new album, Heart Like a Levee, out October 7, 2016 on Merge Records.
btw: Remember Hiss Golden Messenger’s “Saturday Song” from Primavera 15 – THAT song we saw also at least twice 🙂
My new favourite song
Woods – Morning Light
The latest offering of their ninth album City Sun Eater in the River of Light has it all!
The album will be released on April 8 and can be preordered here.
My new favourite song
Day Wave – Drag
Oakland-based Day Wave AKA Jackson Phillips releases his second EP ‘Hard To Read’. It is a gorgeous 5-track EP bursting with California sunshine. Packed with ethereal, lo-fi vocals, captivating hooks, and celestial guitars awash with subtle synths, Day Wave builds an entrancing sonic milieu that makes him one of the most exciting up-and-comers today. With just a handful of singles released, Day Wave quickly became one of the most talked about artists of 2015. Now, with the forthcoming release of his new EP, Day Wave is poised for an even bigger 2016. For fans of The Field Mice and New Order.
12″ – 10 Tracks including the digital only ‘Headcase’ EP. Limited first pressing on Purple coloured vinyl with Download.
Record of the day
Quilt – Plaza
Though it’s NOT ROX N°5, I discovered this band whose latest, third album I can warmly recommend.
QUILT’s lush harmonies and floating arrangements make “Plaza” a groovy trip. Check single “Roller” for first impression.
My new favourite song
Whitney – No Woman
The Chicago group is led by members Max Kakacek (formerly of Smith Westerns) and Julien Ehrlich (formerly of Unknown Mortal Orchestra).
Awesome song.
