Atlanta's MOOD RINGS have just dropped an early demo for their upcoming LP, Dream Infinity Live In Fantasy. This is a slow burner, mood mellower. Really quite different from the previous... [go to the website to read the rest of the article, download mp3s and more]
Tweet vaso link We first talked of Mood Rings back in January of the year most recently deceased when Andy discussed their four-track Sweater Weather Forever. The EP is fuzzy, relaxed and packed with jangly melodies, yet I never quite found the allure I thought I might. I recall reading comparisons to Deerhunter, so that was the basis for my unfulfilled assumptions of lofty expectations. Re-listening to the EP a year later in the wake of this new track and video I caught [...]

Peep the eerie new-ish video for "Promise Me Eternity", Mood Rings ' first single since their early-2011 debut EP Sweater Weather Forever (number 17 on our albums of the year list). The vid, directed by Ryan Winsor (who's worked with T.I., of all people), features a wonky-headed bro who daytrips about woodland fairies and smokey molestation, like a condensed version of Labyrinth minus the Bowie bulge. Check it out after the jump... but first, listen to the lovely "Promise Me Eternity" » [...]
2011 was the year I dove headlong into local music. I listened to just about everything I could get a hold of, scouring through Facebook, Bandcamp and Soundcloud in my attempts to discover as many local artists and as much local music as I possibly could. But even now I feel as if there's so much out there that I'm missing out on. New bands and artists seem to to be sprouting up every day and the landscape of Atlanta music is constantly in flux, morphing and shifting into something unique and different. And so while the list [...]
Funny how when this song first came out it made me think of summer sunsets and ocean breezes and all sorts of warm, lovely, beach-y things. But now that the weather has turned, it has me thinking of sitting by an open fire with a hot toddy in hand. And not in a Christmas time, Jack Frost nipping kind of way, but more as a nostalgic reflection on a fond memory. It's impossible for me to listen to "Promise Me Eternity" (or most anything by Mood Rings , really) and not be lulled into by a pensive trance by [...]
Skinny boys like to walk through the forest naked? In their daydreams? Srsly? Thx god I'm more like a teddybear. I would eat them alive in their fluffy daydreams! Probably I'm not getting the whole point on Ryan Winsor's directed video. Anyway. Mood Rings ' debut 73 is now available on Double Phantom Records .

Here we are premiering the new Ryan Winsor -directed music video for Mood Rings' "Promise Me Eternity." The 73 for this song is out now on Double Phantom . In this video, the sunny and lucid feel of Mood Rings' music is a huge strength. The main character here seems to be having some kind of insane daydream that doesn't look chemically induced. As he's passed out, some odd fellows steal his pendant, and some esoteric dialogue involving love is tossed back and forth. A vinyl copy of Gary Numan's The Pleasure Principle makes [...]

Tweet Relax, folks: Listen Before You Buy hasn't been bought out by an online shop peddling New Age tat. Sure, Mood Rings might share a name with some of the ugliest rings ever to mal-adorn fingers anywhere, but this time I'm talking about the band. Now, they do sound a touch hippie-dippy at times, but it's all good - there's no indication that they're going to try and push crystal therapy on you alongside that demo CD. The Atlanta-based four-piece certainly [...]
The endless river of kick-ass music coming out of Atlanta these days keeps on a 'rollin with Mood Rings , a dreamy psyche-pop group with a 7" Promise Me Eternity that sounds like it could be a long lost gem from The Association, The Beach Boys' Pet Sounds or even Spanky and Our Gang. William Fussell, Tymb Gratz, Christopher Alley and Peter Cauthorn have clearly been geeking out on scrumptious, trippy pop records from the past whose emphasis centered around lazy-day, wistful yearnings and it [...]

I was in complete denial about summer ending till I went to the Caribbean this weekend and felt that amazing Cabarete beach weather - yeah summer is over. I've been traveling a lot my whole life, there's something about waking up in different countries within a matter of days that does it for me. I'll never take that for granted and music has made it possible so cheers to that. I woke up this morning still feeling like an islander but regaining my New York State of Mind and the first thing I did was put on the new anti-winter [...]
