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.

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

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.

Moody and beautiful.
