We last caught up with English sister trio The Staves when they dropped Steady. Like my pimples, they’re baaaaaaaaaack! Unlike my pimples, this is good news. The video is for lead single Black & White (should I continue the pimple-themed...
We bring you more post-rock instrumental music from Cold, Cold Heart. Their latest track is called Megan, and features a cello and viola, two instruments that are clearly a flash in the pan and have no staying power in music....
English rockers The Vaccines return with a new album announcement and a new video to boot. The album shockingly doesn’t contain the band’s name in the title (like their first 2 albums), and is called English Graffiti. Our first listen...
More great stuff from Petite Noir. We heard debut track Chess, and now he follows it up with Shadows. As a bonus, we have another track with Yasiin Bey (formerly known as Mos Def). Shadows shows off his vocal range,...
Good band name? Check. Good song? Check. Based on this, you should check out Pearl and the Beard, and their track You. You features three vocalists throughout the song, all coming together for the soothing chorus harmony. If you want...
More new stuff from Purity Ring. Following up on push pull is their new track begin again. The track is as straight forward a song that I’ve heard from the Canadians. No distorted and bizarrely appealing vocals, weird yet melodic...
Previous PHM interviewee Mark T Smith of Explosions in the Sky teamed with Eluvium (aka Matthew Cooper) and previously formed the lovely outfit Inventions. The ambient instrumental duo produced tracks like Entity and Peaceable Child. They have bashed out another...
Like Django Django, Noel Gallagher must’ve also heard it was my birthday on Monday, and dropped a new song to celebrate. Following up on In The Heat of The Moment, Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds are back with a video...
Django Django was our favourite album of 2012. With my birthday being today (thanks for the presents, NO ONE), Django Django decided to give me the gift of a song. Well, me and the entire Internet. We get a funky...
Hailing from Edmonton is Cecil Frena, or as he likes to be called Born Gold (sounds powerful). Born Gold has a single series called No Sorrow, dropping tracks like how I drop my exercise plans – on a consistent basis....
I like how the band name and song title could sort of be some weird thought process or discussion. “Chastity Belt? Time to go home!” Oh man, how many dates have I said that one? Trick question – I don’t...
We have some lovely stuff from English trio The Staves. Bonus points for being sisters, too. The band released an EP last year with production work from Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon. He’s also produced upcoming album, If I Was. Our...
There was a period of my life where I was obsessed with The Go! Team. I would listen to Thunder, Lightning, Strike all the time, applying the songs as theme songs to various parts of my life, working the song...
Do you remember that London, UK duo Oh Wonder, who have promised to release a new song every month? We caught up with their December release All We Do. Their January contribution is The Rain (an aptly named song for...
Life is busy. I get easily distracted by hilarious cat videos on YouTube. I start eating gummi bears and wake up in a food coma days later, still somehow watching cat videos on YouTube. Where am I going with this?...
