We’ve heard some great songs from UK duo Aquilo this year. Human and I Gave It All are outstanding tracks, with the latter also having a heartbreaking video. With their new EP now out, the band have dropped another video,...
We have some electronic soundscapes from Cologne, Germany for you. The band are VIMES and they have a new track called Entail. The duo throw a variety of sounds at us in Entail, with the sound slowly morphing yet maintaining...
Some raw weekend music listening for you. 1. Although this is actually pretty old (2012), it’s new to us… and it’s Something Is Raw, from Germany’s STL. 2. Deep, dark, mysterious. No clue where this comes from, but it’s called...
Purity Ring are helping close out 2012 by dropping a new tune. It is called push pull, showing the band truly do not care about caPiTaL letters. The track is similar to efforts off of 2012’s Shrines, in that it...
More new stuff from The Decemberists! The Colin Meloy-led outfit are following up Make You Better with a lyric video (which actually shows the band playing, and would pass for a proper video) for Lake Song. The track is a...
A duo from London called Oh Wonder emailed me to let me know they are dropping songs at the start of every month leading up to their September debut album. It might have taken 1 million total listens, but I’ve...
Some impressive new stuff by Domino signee Petite Noir. While the video has an intentionally dated feel (right??), the song is anything but. Petite Noir is from Cape Town, South Africa (one of the most beautiful cities I have ever...
I received an email from an artist from the North East of England. He goes by the name Cape Cub, which I really hope is his real name (assuming I ignore the “Chad” he closed the email with). Cape Cub...
Spoiler alert: Aquilo’s song I Gave It All will make the Top Songs of 2014 list next month. The English duo have a heartbreaking song with an outstanding chorus. They now have a wonderful video full of heartbreak, too. The...
No, the dude from Entourage doesn’t have a music career that features on PHM. Turtle is in fact a Glasgow-based producer named Jon Cooper. He is following up his Who Knows EP with his latest EP, Colours. Our first listen...
We have some catchy indie pop from a duo from Seattle. They are called Sisters, although due to the male member of the band, I don’t think the bandmates themselves are sisters. OR ARE THEY?! The band’s debut EP is...
If Zooey Deschanel asks you to stay awhile, you don’t move at all – your dreams have come true! Unfortunately, she is merely singing these words as part of her gig in She & Him with M. Ward. She &...
Followers of PHM (do they exist?!) should know we’re big fans of Vaults. Recently, we’ve posted tracks Lifespan, Vultures, and Poison. Next up in the batter’s order is Mend This Love. The song has a bit of a different vibe...
As the snow starts falling on Toronto, and has been covering the rest of the country since about August, Canadian indie rock band Rah Rah have just the aptly named song for you. Thankfully, the song isn’t as wordy as...
It’s Monday (unless you’re from the future, when we convert to some bizzaro new system). If you’re in need of a musical pick me up, then you’ve come to the right place. We have some lovely synth, a nice backing...
