Fever Ray - "Wrong Flower (Cinematic)"

Fever Ray has contributed two songs to the upcoming Maggie Gyllenhaal directed film The Bride!  I'm more partial to "The Wrong Flower" with its lurching, Asian-tinted rhythms, and their heavily processed vocals.  It's both sinister and fun.

Nathan Fake - "Slow Yamaha"

Nathan Fake's latest album Evaporator finds the producer in a more pensive, introspective mode. I was particularly drawn to the 9-minute slow burn of "Slow Yamaha," with its undulating synths. It is hypnotic.

hemlocke springs - "moses"

Springing forth from Zeus like the love child of Prince, Cyndi Lauper, Kate Bush, and Robert Smith, North Carolina artist hemlocke springs' debut album The Apple Tree Under The Sea, is a wondrous clash of influences. "moses" is pure break-beat/80s synthpop perfection. 

Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever - "Sunburned In London"

Aussie jangle-pop rockers Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever return with the sparkling six-minute track "Sunburned In London" that makes you ache for signs of spring.

Mandy, Indiana ft. billy woods - "Sicko!"

 

Industrial post-punks Mandy, Indiana team up with billy woods on the incendiary track "Sicko!" that appears on their new record URGH, out tomorrow.

Joyce Manor - "All My Friends Are So Depressed"

Power-pop-punks Joyce Manor throw on their best The Smiths impersonation on the beguiling and catchy track "All My Friends Are So Depressed." It can be found on their fantastic new record I Used To Go To This Bar.

GUV - "Crash Down Feeling"

If you grew up during the rise of shoegaze, baggy, and Britpop, get prepared for a blast of nostalgia on GUV's fun new record Warmer Than Gold. "Crash Down Feeling" is a pure injection of Stone Roses meets Happy Mondays baggy vibes.
