Another new video from Toronto’s Austra, off of their excellent second album, Olympia. The video for Painful Like follows that of Home, which took place in a single room. The video showcases the ill-advised hobby of night time rollerblading. On...
Who doesn’t like free mp3s? And legal ones at that. Well, that’s what XNY are offering up with their new track Burn Out (named after 50% of the people at my high school). The track is lifted from the Brooklyn...
Toronto indie label Arts & Crafts sure knows how to sign them. We’ve featured recent signees Gold & Youth (who we also interviewed) and Reuben and the Dark. Now we (well, Arts & Crafts) bring you the duo of Jeffrey...
We have a new synth pop track from Canadian band Fitness Club Fiasco (which is what occurred the time I wore Daisy Dukes to work out). The band formed in Bristol, England, but have relocated back to Canada and found...
The no longer mysterious New York band MS MR have a new video for us. The VHS aesthetic is still proving to be popular, perpetuating the myth that nothing ever goes out of style. The video is also a bizarro...
If you wanted gorgeous dream pop, then you came to the right place. If you wanted pictures of me wearing women’s clothing, then sorry – you have the wrong blog (that’s my other blog). We have the brand new track...
I occasionally make requests for songs with more saxophone parts, because you can rarely go wrong with saxophones, right? My dreams are realized with a new song from Postiljonen. The Swedish outfit have a sexy new track called Atlantis. The...
We have something new from Sweden’s New Found Land. She just released her third album (and also chatted to PeteHatesMusic) and has a new video for her poppy, upbeat track The Hunter. Singer Anna Roxenholt describes the video and track...
I listened to this song last week on Gorilla vs Bear and I’m like – it’s great. Then I went to post it, and I thought I bookmarked the wrong track, as I didn’t like it. I tried again, loved...
It’s time for us to play catch up on our segment Weekend Catch Up. This is where Rich and I post great songs we never got around to posting that we think you really need to hear. This week’s edition...
Some new and upbeat stuff from Kopecky Family Band. The Nashville band have just released their debut album, Kids Raising Kids, which sounds like it was named for the student daycare in the high school in my small town. On...
We literally just posted the new Franz Ferdinand track, Right Action, but SURPRISE – there is not one but two new singles. This is like when you think there’s only one gummi bear tucked into the corner of the package,...
Stars have released a mouthful of a new song – Hold On When You Get Love and Let Go When You Give It. When I interview Torquil Campbell, we spoke about the song title and a similar Beatles reference, so...
The Vaccines are trying to compete with Arctic Monkeys for one of the most prolific UK bands around. This September, Arctic Monkeys are releasing their fifth album in the past 7 years. The Vaccines released an album in 2011 and...
Something else new from Barbarossa. If you liked our previously featured tracks Butterfly Plague and The Load, you’ll probably like this new one, called Turbine. I’m a gambling man, so I’m actually betting on this assumption. The track features the...
