On Tuesday July 2nd, A Grave With No Name will return with a new album titled Whirlpool . Recorded over the course of a year at Holy Mountain Studios in London, Whirlpool completes a narrative trilogy for A Grave With No Name - a trilogy that began in 2009 with the release of Mountain Debris , & continued with 2011’s Lower . It’s a narrative that confronts the theme of loss, something which could be considered a well trodden path within popular music, but Alex Shields has managed [...]
Hibou is the moniker of Peter Michel who formerly toured N. America + Europe as the drummer of indie outfit Craft Spells. At only 19, he already has a year-long touring experience & 2 songs under his belt, both for free below. Here are a few words on “Glow” by Peter: “Glow was inspired by the way my life seemed to be darkly growing and spreading in directions I wasn’t familiar with. I wanted the song to sound as though it had a sharp pulse, but was also ominous and dreary.” [...]
Sonnyskyes (VS) ::: Facebook / Home ::: The Imaginary Friend Ship ::: Label ::: The Imaginary Friend Ship is een onverwacht lekker plaatje van Sonnyskyes uit Long Beach. Het album van deze 'lofi meteorologist rockstar' telt tien nummers en staat vol met aanstekelijke, door de sixties geïnspireerde, gruizig, lofi rock, maar zeker een aanrader! Meer lezen »
Jackson Scott er fra Asheville, North Carolina, og indtil videre er han i øvrigt i ubeskrevet blad.

På Jackson Scotts soundcloud finder du to flere lo-fi sange, der heller ikke er helt uefne. Jackson Scott | Facebook Jackson Scott | Soundcloud

Up & coming Suffolk, UK trio The Soft quietly released a debut EP in 2011 that melted the hazier parts of bedroom produced electronic music matched with haunting washed over vocals that sporadically hit on off kilter samples & hints of Arthur Russell. Following some extended UK touring through the end of 2011 + into 2012 that culminated with opening Drowned In Sound’s stage at this year’s Great Escape Festival The Soft began work on follow up material. “Mori” is that starting point. Full of cryptic imagery both in the art & inside [...]
Blonde Summer is Chris Pope (vocals / guitar), Matt Reid (guitar), Chris Livingstone (bass) and Stephen Kurshner (drums) from Los Angeles in the USA , who produce lo-fi surf pop to match the band name. Blonde Summer There is a sound that emerges from the speakers that can't be mistaken other than arising from Los Angeles and it is of no surprise to find this is another introduction from Banter Media . Lazy hazy post college days ripple [...]
Some albums hit you right off the bat and others grow on you over time. I've often found that the albums that grow on you are the best. Hooray For Earth's debut was one of those growers for me. Their latest single, "Never", doesn't need any time to grow on you though. It's freaking hot and it's ready to tear your cheap iPhone-factory headphones apart. It opens with big-stadium percussion leading the way to bright synths that blow in like cool, neon-lit fog. The shifting melody, alternating rhythms, and lush ambiance make this jam feel bigger than life. The [...]
Daddy Lion is the work of Jeremy Joseph, an Alt-Rock inspired multi-instrumentalist based in Columbia, South Carolina. Although the nine track `Habitat` album is a self-confessed home recording using the extremely versatile GarageBand application, Daddy Lion`s conceptually solid Indie swagger goes far beyond popular recording software. With influences submerged in Classic Rock, New Wave and 90`s Alt-Rock - Daddy Lion`s revivified recordings are awash with genre-hopping style and mid-tempo groove. An exceptional release from an obviously clever musician, for me `Habitat` excels in acclimatised rhythm but just occasionally falls short in vocal department (it might just be the reverb effects) which [...]
Today's guest post was contributed by my good-friend Robert Khoury, founder of the SF music site See The Leaves and co-founder of the tremendous City Limits Records . Not only was I frequently inspired by Robert's posts and new music discoveries as a fellow blogger, but Robert is just an amazing person who I'm happy to now call a friend. There aren't many other people whose taste in music I respect as much as his. ~Matthew New year, new label, new Sonny and the Sunsets. I See The Void will be from [...]
Island Twins is Erik Brauer (Guitar / Vocal), Meagan Brauer (Vocal / Bass), and Tony Del Cid (Drums) a lo-fi pop band from New York in the USA. Island Twins Avoiding the potential sibling rivalry Eric and Meagan play different numbers of strings and each adds a completely different pitch to the vocal. The music is a delightful sashay back to CBGBs, a smearing fuzz and dripped with some honeycomb crumbs from '60s pop overlay, each enhances the [...]

Mystery Pills is Raj Dawson from Rapid City in the USA. Mystery Pills Well it is lo-fi and it's from the USA couldn't really be any-one else than an introduction from other than the superlative Banterman and my fantasy girl Karen. Much as I ponder her... anyway, Dawson - reminds me of a guitarist who lives locally. Same surname, but unlike Raj, though he could equally play in the market and in fact he is quite a tender guy. Lives in the world [...]

Listen to the new single from Dublin five-piece lo-fi popsters September Girls
Der er endnu engang uhøjtidelige og positive toner fra San Diegos Inspired & Asleep. Indspillede perkussion loops, trommemaskine fra et Casio legetøjskeyboard, fløjte, ukelele og bassudgør det instrumentale. Tekstuniverset er ikke uden kontraster til den ubekymrede stemning. På sarkastisk vis kredser teksten om hvordan samfundet og forsangeren selv både mentalt, socialt og fysisk i høj grad fungerer i kraft af indtagelsen af piller. Download nummeret gratis via Inspired & the Sleeps Bandcamp. Inspired & Asleep | Homepage Inspired & [...]
