ALL TOGETHER


.
TRACK BY TRACK

Artist: HEATHER NOVA
Who: The much/long lauded
Bermudian singer-songwriter,
59 now.

Track: IN THE PATH OF HURRICANES

Taster from her upcoming 13th LP, baptized
The Orchard. Out in October.

A song about the intoxicating feeling of longing that comes
when you feel chemistry with someone, but aren’t sure if
it’s all in your head.

TUTV: The song’s footstomping, iterative, groovy drum/bass beat gets you in
a trance from the first listen. On top of the stream comes Nova‘s gentle and
crystalline voice. Transfixing pop ardour.

Band: VEDA RAYS
Who: Indie duo from Philly, making ethereal indie rock rooted in dream pop, post-punk, and traditional shoegaze, with lyrics that explore liminality and abstraction, channeling subconscious impulses into the present moment.

Track: CAPRICIOUS FATES

Piece from their brand-new 5-track EP, named
You Can Do Anything. Stream/buy HERE.

TUTV: Veda Rays deliver some glorious guitar pop gusto infused with
a capriously catchy drive here, pepped up with expressive vocals and
a kinetic chorus. Striking stroke.

All the days go careening by
strangers replaced when we tried to hide
All the days went careening right by
capricious fates upending the ride/
capricious fates upending the ride

Artist: E.T.
Who: Captivating singer-songwriter Eric Turner from Chattanooga, TN
whose music is built on honest storytelling that comes straight from the heart.
While he has spent time in several notable bands over the years, most of E.T.’s
career has been on the road as a solo acoustic performer.

Track: WHAT IS TAKING YOU SO LONG
New single.

TUTV: Get ready for some old rock ‘n’ roll time vibrations. A mix of boogie woogie swagger, pelvis-twisting Americana rock, galvanic guitar hooks and spot-on fitting vocals will get you in the mood to jump into a convertible Chevy oldtimer and hit the road, hair in the wind and playing this sepia-colored earworm. I won’t take you long to enjoy the ride.

Band: FAT DOG
Who: Disco-punk misfits from London.

Track: CALL IT WHAT YOU WANT
Newest single from their new, 2nd album,
baptized Cancel Me (I’m Tired)) out Oct 2.

Joe Love (frontman): . “That’s me looking at people in my family
and their problems and thinking, ‘Is it gonna be the same for me?
Is it in my DNA?’”

TUTV: Less explosive than what we are used to by these dogs,
yet enough ambience to hop around the kitchen table.

TUTV: I could have sworn this is a Grandaddy song. Its soft, dreamy tonality, melancholic vocality and romantic timbre assured me of it. But, hey, it’s DIIV at their most relaxed.

NOW PLAYING! New Album By Brooklyn’s Shoegazers DIIV – Here’s ‘DECEIVER’…

6 October 2019

Band: DIIV (Brooklyn, New York)

Album: Deceiver

Released: 4 October 2019

Quote: The band’s singer/songwriter and mastermind Cole Smith says: “I’ve known everyone in the band for ten years plus separately and together as DIIV for at least the past five years. On ‘Deceiver’, I’m talking about working for the relationships in my life, repairing them, and accepting responsibility for the places I’ve failed them. I had to re-approach the band. It wasn’t restarting from a clean slate, but it was a new beginning. It took time—as it did with everybody else in my life—but we all grew together and learned how to communicate and collaborate.”

Sound: A absorbing collection of profound and electrical meditations. From melancholic reveries to fully charged flare-ups. A varied melodious palette with tons of guitar layers reminding me at times of legendary noiseniks My Bloody Valentine, and a fully charged emotional shoegaze intensity at its gripping best.
