Singles That Mingle

 With Captain Stavros

 

Danny & The Champions of the World – I’m In Love

You Are Not a Stranger Out October 18 Via Loose

 Mellow Dad rock, and there ain’t nothin’ wrong wit-it.

 

Eterna – Perfect Comms

 Well formed, hitting the ground strolling. They’ll be at Pitchfork Music Festival if you fancy their sound.

 

 

Dawn Richard and Spencer Zahn – Traditions

Quiet in a World Full of Noise Out October 4 Via Merger Records

A chill one to unwind to or reflect with.

 

Total Tommy – Real

A bit poppy for our tastes but sorta infectious at the same time.

 

Fucked Up – Another Day

This song is primarily about cannabis and as such puts its thumb on the scale of publicity tipping said scale.

 

Caleb Landry Jones – Hey Gary

Hey Gary, Hey Dawn Digital Deluxe Out September 13 Via Sacred Bones Records

Great vocal/music matchup. Short and sweet too.

 

DoFlame – Fastlanes

Bent Out October 14 Via Blue Grape Music

Kinda has that late ‘90s Linkin Park/Billy Talent/Limp Bizkit thing going on.

 

Tindersticks – Always a Stranger

 Soft Tissue Out September 13 Via City Slang

Moody and beautiful.

 

Tycho – Green

 Infinite Health Out Now Via Ninja Tunes

 Not a fan of the live show we caught few years back but the video is mesmerising and the song is seductively captivating. Credit where credit is due.

 

 

J.R.C.G. – Cholla Beat

Grim Iconic Sadistic Mantra Out Now Via SubPop

Another solidly constructed and listenable tune by J.R.C.G.

 

 Nice Biscuit – Fade Away

 SOS Out October 4 Via Bad Vibrations

 Another solid rambler from crumbmakers.

 

 

Molchat Doma - Belaya Polosa

Belaya Polosa Out September 6 Via Sacred Bones

The boys keep levelling up with each album release and really push out of their comfort zones, well impressed by this title track.

 

 

Lunar Vacation – Tom

Everything’s Fire Out September 13 Via Keeled Scales

 A pleasant and all too cruisey tune.

 

 

Desire – I Know

 Games People Play Out October 2 Via Italians Do It Better

We know you’re gonna love this one.

 

Geneva Jacuzzi – Laps of Luxury

Triple Fire Out Now Via Dais Records

If you don’t like this straight out the gate never come back to this blog.
