Mixtape: The New Wave of Bay Area Shoegazers (Podcast #253) Amidst its various other micro-scenes, San Francisco has long fostered bands incorporating the dreamy and noisy sounds of shoegaze . Over the years, groups like Film School, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, The Stratford 4, and others emerged from the Bay Area, employing dense, melodic distortion to much acclaim. Recently, it seems, a new crop of shoegaze-influenced bands has begun to emerge, led by breakout acts like Weekend , Young Prisms [...]

Tied To The Branches is the latest band to release on Abandoned Love Records, headed by Jon Rooney of Virgin Of The Birds and including FensePost favorites Like Pioneers and The Lovely Sparrows. "Walls" features an echoing wall of guitars and reverb-drowned vocals. Its accompanying video is a disjointed psychedelic trip, filled with digital shapes, illustrations and a very colorful palette. In a way, I'm reminded of that heavy, psychedelic garage sound of modern greats like The Fresh & Onlys and City Center. "Walls" has that all-encompassing feel [...]
The Floydcast is named after that furry fuckwit in the picture: the Song, by Toad house cat and Mrs. Toad's imbecilic companion of the last seven years. Last night we had him killed. I know you're supposed to say 'put to sleep' or whatever, but when the poor wee fucker is looking plaintively at you because you're the only person at the vet's that he actually trusts it really does feel like execution. We think he had lung cancer of some form or other. His lungs had clouded up, the vet had tried more or less every trick [...]
Tied To The Branches sind Marc, Brad und Justin und kommen aus einer der wohl bewusstseinerweiterndensten Städte der USofA, San Francisco. Nirgendwo anders wäre ihr typisch psychedlischer und leicht depressiv dröhnender Shoegaze-Rock besser aufgehoben. Am 7. Juni veröffentlichen Tied To The Branches ihre 5track EP Light Of Day, It's Ok , Vorbestellungen werden auf bandcamp entgegengenommen. Schaut euch aber erstmal das Video von Matthew Hall zu dem EP-Opener " Walls " an. via Tied To The Branches - Facebook [...]
abandoned love records haben wir in der vergangenheit öfter mal besucht, wir klopften dabei unter anderem an die türen von virgin of the birds, the capstan shafts oder like pioneers. die truppe, die wir heute unter die lupe nehmen heißt tied to the branches und stammt aus san francisco, wo sie in die fußstapfen derer tritt, die dereinst an einer psychedelisch durchfluteten welt gearbeitet hatten. denn nichts anderes führt das trio aus der bay area marc manning, brad dermanouelian und justin wasterlain fort. wie in ein kaleidoscope gesprungen, fühlt man sich, setzt die walze sich in bewegung.

If two weeks ago was Super Tuesday, this must be Ultimate Tuesday, as there are at least four albums likely to make more than a few year end top 10 lists (there are two likely to make mine -- I'll let you guess which ones). So you'll forgive me if this week's post is late, as the word count has spiraled out of control laying praise on the latest from The Posies, Deerhunter, No Age and Neil Young. Other notables this week include new releases from Abe Vigoda, Glasser, Nellie McKay, Owen Pallet, Ben Folds/Nick Hornby, The Corin Tucker Band, [...]
