Album Review: Lightouts – Want

Album Review: Lightouts – Want

It’s been a long wait, but Want has finally arrived. I interviewed these guys in August of 2011 and we were talking about Want all the way back then. I naively asserted in that discussion with Gavin and Greg that we’d be laying ears on this LP…

Video: Nerves Junior – Goodnight Nobody

Video: Nerves Junior – Goodnight Nobody

Nerves Junior released a video for “Goodnight Nobody” today. The hazy, psychedelic vidya was shot by Casey Chalmers & Amber Garvey/Kertis Creative. “Goodnight Nobody” is also a hell of a good track. Enjoy!

Stream: Adventure Galley – Semantics

Stream: Adventure Galley – Semantics

“Semantics” is a beautiful combination of synth-rock, with reverb soaked vocals calling out above the warm sounds of Adventure Galley. The falsetto led chorus is an interesting departure from where most tracks seem to be going these days – when others are trying to rise…

MP3: Nacosta – No Fly

MP3: Nacosta – No Fly

Nacosta are back with “No Fly”, their third single in three months and to my knowledge the final release in their single series. You’re immediately hit with some very bright guitar work and a nice bit of harmony…in the time since I reviewed Nacosta’s last…

Album Review: The Tontons – Bones 7″

Album Review: The Tontons – Bones 7″

Something about the mail that contained Bones prevented me from sorting it and therefore potentially missing it. I have a process I run through – 90% of PR stuff goes straight to “QUEUE” or “SHORTHANDED GOALS” after a quick smell test. For some reason, I didn’t…

Stream: Lightouts – Want

Stream: Lightouts – Want

I’ve never seen a track on Soundcloud with no spikes on the waveform, but that’s how “Want” appears on my screen. I’m going to assume it’s a bug because this is definitely not the most rocking Lightouts track I’ve heard, by a good margin. That’s…

MP3 & Video: GRMLN – Night Racer

Glad this track and video found me. GRMLN is Yoodoo Park and he’s delivering some sweet indie rock loving via “Night Racer”, a new single being released by Carpark Records.

Album Review: Magic Shadows – Sunburned Mind b/w Under The Stairs 7″

Album Review: Magic Shadows – Sunburned Mind b/w Under The Stairs 7″

Cathartic, noise-y, ass-kicking – that’s Hamilton, Ontario based Magic Shadows. Their 7″, Sunburned Mind b/w Under The Stairs is dirty, grimey garage rock woven together with wailing vocals and dark undertones. Somewhere beneath all those chugging riffs and pounding drums you’ll also find a surprisingly…

Album Review: Manicorn – We’re Manicorn

Album Review: Manicorn – We’re Manicorn

We all have those things we find irresistible  The opposite (or same) sex, money, a certain type of food, nicotine, alcohol, thrill seeking experiences…they pull at us with a gravitas that we struggle to understand. They make us do strange things, say weird shit, or generally…

Shorthanded Goals: Volume IX

Shorthanded Goals: Volume IX

I’ve talked often about being able to foot the bill for several Shorthanded Goals a month. It never really ever works out. Sifting through all the excess tracks and drawing out links and MP3′s takes some time. While once a week is easy, more than…
