Brick + Mortar • Meta Meta Etc.

• released 2018-08-24

Diverse mix of influences, from synth pop to hip hop to plain old indie rock.

Approximately Relevant

Wolf Parade • Cry Cry Cry

Dense arrangements of fragile parts, a wide palette of textures and tempos, and a pervading sense of drama make this a collection of pensive songs

A Giant Dog • Toy

Good collection of power pop, with male / female / duet vocals.

Spin Doctors • Face Full Of Cake

No denying this band exists in a dual space of Gen X ridicule and genuine nostalgia. The new album is filled with the same sunny indie-rock wink-and-grin disposition that rightfully earned them the title, broadcasting into/from the airwaves of 1994.

BRONCHO • Natural Pleasure

One final challenge awaits: swim through the Reservoir of Bliss, filled with honey, liquid moonlight, and endorphins, then dance in slow motion across the infra-disco, as BRONCHO's underwater guitar syrup and whispered falsetto choruses are playing.
