Corridor Share New Single

You can now hear Corridor’s ‘Domino’, a new single and insistent highlight from forthcoming album, Junior. The band’s inventive genius is on full display here, showcasing what might be their best trick – creating singular tunes that are purposeful, full of song-craft, even as they let loose, slip their collar.

Commenting on the track, singer/guitarist Jonathan Robert said: "People are often glorifying what being an Artist or a musician can mean. Art doesn’t necessarily make you a better person. There can be angst, stress and so on. It can have a negative, direct impact on the people closest to you. ‘Domino’ is about navigating just that. It is the first song out of Junior that we’ve composed and we’ve played it live quite a few times already."

The Montreal-based band will release Junior on October 18 worldwide through Sub Pop with the exception of Canada through Bonsound. With Junior, the group make the most dazzling, immediate and inventive album of their young career: 39 minutes of darting and dodging guitars, spiralling vocal harmonies, and the complicated, goldenrod nostalgia of a Sunday mid-afternoon.

Somehow Jo Debut Album

Very excited to hear that Somehow Jo are releasing their debut album. It seems impossible that three years has passed since their amazing single, ‘Go With The Jo’. 

Descriobed as “an alternative-progressive band wrapped in a metal jacket” from Tampere, Finland, the band is four friends who come with different backgrounds and musical influences each bringing their own flavour to the stew. Active from 2013 with the current lineup, the band charms with super-energetic shows, tight playing and a touch of humour. Somehow Jo keeps crafting their personal sound release after release to keeping it fresh.

The recording process started in the Autumn of 2017 with the drum tracks, while shaping up the last parts of guitars and bass. “After we got all the bass and guitar parts down and executed them the right way, we wanted some synth gravy on top. Saku started to play and offered us ideas that reeked that same creative quality that we were after. So he got promoted as a producer for the album. We spent many weekends and drank all the coffee in Kouvola while shaping up the record to its final form. Every time on the bus back home we were exhausted but all of us just knew that something original and truly beautiful was made again. We finished the recording process just in time for Christmas in 2018.” More news when I have it.
