Vacant Home
Slowly Slowly
Zachary Ross & the Divine EP

 

Slowly Slowly…I’ve been anticipating this album for months. RIYL The Maine or The 1975.

 

Magnolia Park released a second single yesterday and confirmed it will be on a new album coming out in April. I liked the first one, Shallow, better.

 

Mogwai - The Bad Fire!!!!

 

new Jojo EP

 

Slowly Slowly for me, really loved all the singles. Can't wait to dive in!

 

Canaan Smith - Chickahominy
Stale Azzwater - Declassify This

 

Hi All, my band Jack Slaw released our new single 'Back Then' today. Has some RHCP, Catfish and the Bottlemen, and Foals kinds of vibes. Would really appreciate anyone checking it out!

As for new music, I'm absolutely listening to ABR's re-recording of Thrill Seeker

 

The ONLY album this week is from Slowly Slowly. Already potential album of the year for me. Wish it was longer than 9 songs though.

 

Rick Steff's piano playing on this makes it special.

 

The Slowly Slowly album is pretty good. They sound like that band ARIZONA.

 

Slowly Slowly and August Burns Red for me. Thrill Seeker changed my life.

 

High.
Mogwai
Rose City Band
