Rando Trio of Forthcoming new tunes

Felipe — Fri, 22 Apr 2016 19:47:13 +0000

Seems like a lot of the new tunes out right now really stink. They’re just kinda…. “there,” and in turn super frustrating. So it’s been a bit annoying trying to find cool stuff to post cuz so much is all the saaaaaaame blah. So here’s a random assortment of jams I’ve been listening to a lot lately, some oldies but goodies. First up Nai Harvest, a slacker punk gruesome twosome from Sheffield, UK (also refer to themselves as “pop scum”…). They’ve been featured as a “Band to Watch” on StereoGum and put out a pretty solid album last year. From that album: “Melanie.” Next up, in hot anticipation of their 2nd full length out later this year, Moose Blood, a sweet band on No Sleep Records from Canterbury, England. Seriously, these dudes are just awesome. They’ve been compared to Brand New’s Deja Entendu, The Get Up Kids, and American Football, and were nominated for APMAs 2016 Best Underground Band. Their album I’ll Keep You In Mind, From Time to Time is in my “Saved” folder, if that says anything. Finally, not new, but touring this summer in support of their forthcoming album out in May, The Hotelier, the only band here not from the UK. These dudes are from Worcester, MA, and are definitely the most serious of the bunch. A fave of super serious music reviewer-man Ian Cohen, and rightly so, cuz their last album is tight. Ok that’s it. Happy Friday.

Feli Says Happy Friday!

Looming – Nailbiter LP

“To loom or not to loom”, that is the question that looms over Looming while in Tulum. Be glad they chose to loom… The Springfield, Illinoisians’ first full-length, “Nailbiter” – meant to be listened all the way through – is super solid, the kind of music you just know sounds awesome live in a crowd of people all wearing super hip “I-don’t-care-what-you-think-about-me” clothing and beards and lots of black and sarcastic tattoos and stuff – like those “mustache on your finger” tattoos, but like 4 years ago, before Flatiron agency bros starting doing it. Alt Press gave them 4.5 stars and calls them “Noisy Punk Melodicism” (damn that’s creative). The more I listen to them the doper they are. Forming in 2013, two years of hard work and honing, the fruits of their loom show. Hopefully they stay on this track and don’t fall to the dark side of the loom.

FULL ALBUM

Yeo – Kobe

Wow, this track really grabbed me from the get go. Yeo, the Australian songwriter, producer and musical wizard just debuted his newest track, Kobe, yesterday and I freakin’ love it!

The quick horn and violin samples wound together with the guitar part, as well as some strong vocals, sounds just awesome. I love all the familiar sounds put together in a way that I’m not used to hearing. Check it out for yourself and let us know what you think.

While you’re here, check our his first big single, Girl. It’s not to shabby either.

Olympic Ayres – Girl

Six days ago our very own Molly posted a sweet song off of Olympic Ayres’ upcoming EP, Episode iii. Needless to say all of us here at TMD enjoyed Magic and have been eagerly anticipating the rest of the release. We are happy to bring you the news that if you can’t wait another day to get your sticky little fingers on Episode iii, you don’t have because it’s here! I was psyched to find that this EP was available yesterday when I opened Spotify. The other two tracks (beside the earlier released Magic), Orchid and Girl, pack quite a one-two punch. Orchid is a velvety, downbeat track with smooth vocals that provides a nice contrast to the others. The last track, Girl, is more of a fun dance-y jam that’ll have you bobbing your head at your desk or better yet in the sun, if you’ve managed to escape outdoors. Whatever your particular locale, this EP is a must listen for those smooth tunes for summer days.
