“Another Kind of Love” by Ida Wenøe is beautiful. A song you would hear in the blockbuster romance of the year. Probably just after the main character’s relationship appears to be shattered with no hope of reconciliation. Either that, or a slow dance at prom where the song is used to foreshadow the end of […]

This is a special post because I can’t stop listening to this song. “Rearview” came out at the beginning of the month and I have probably listened to it over 100 times. Run River North have been one of my favorite bands since I first heard “Monsters Calling Home” on soundcloud about six years ago. […]
Some mornings, I listen to song after song, waiting for something to grab me. A hook, a lyric, a great guitar tone, whatever. A lot of mornings I’m left wanting. This morning was not one of them. “Eyes” by Minneapolis’ Wild Firth is an attention-grabbing dream ride. Lawn Memory by Wild Firth Awash with dreamy […]

As Perth native Gabriella Coenen sings “I could hear you coming through the door,” I’m grasping onto every word she sings. “Draw” is arranged masterfully. Soft and almost menacing in the verse. […]
“Big Blue” by dayflower originally released as a single in 2016 is being re-released on the band’s new album Honeyspun. This song is incredible. honeyspun by dayflower “Big Blue” is flooded with reverb and jangling sounds. It’s like I’m drowning beneath an ocean of distortion and reverb and everything just kind of blends together in […]
Take a page, “Paper Girl” is a pure joy of a song. If it doesn’t make you want to dance, I don’t know what will. The new single by French band Le SuperHomard features a whimsical happiness and a psychedelic groove that I absolutely love. “Paper Girl” reminds me of a song I wrote about […]
You thought you knew colorful pop music before, but after listening to YEAST’s “Closer” you’ll have the vision of a mantis shrimp (probably the worst joke I’ve ever laughed hysterically to myself about)! “Closer” is off the fresh album by Lyonnais foursome, YEAST. The song is the first track off the track EP Dust of […]
