All The Same

All The Same by Mister Suit   (Chicago, Illinois) *

Mister Suit had me wide eyed at midnight. During the hours that I should be tucked under my sheets, I stayed awake listening to music. I was very fortunate to come across All The Same, its bedroom rock with a hint of snarl. ‘Grown Up’ is so perfect, in my opinion. It doesn’t sound like it’s been picked apart and dissected. There is something about it that seems so free spirited and natural, it doesn’t sound as if it had been dissected by ten different people. I think that is a main reason I found it so appealing. I have found that I tend to prefer more minimal approaches to music and ‘Grown Up’ has this lo-fi sound that I find highly appealing. @LeahLovecat

Leaving The Woods EP

Leaving The Woods EP by These Brittle Bones   (Singapore) *

Singapore by way of Swansea, These Brittle Bones have an infectious, haunting nature.  Something about Chris Jones’ voice is so beatiful but so doleful. It echoes and swoons over the short and enticing, Leaving The Woods. I keep playing each song over and over again. A countless amount of times. This EP is notably short and I find that it’s better that way. These Brittle Bones have made me itch for more. I have been thoroughly and successfully seduced…all before noon. Lovecat

This Here’s The Future Primitives

This Here’s The Future Primitives by The Future Primitives   (March 13, 2012)*

Within the past few years I have been developing a deep, deep love for garage/rockabilly. I feel I have really expanded my palate and within the first ew seconds of playing back a song, I know whether or not it’s worth my time. The Future Primitive’s garage recorded EP, This Here’s The Future Primitives, was definitely the highlight of my evening. The EP fit my awkwardly high standards for the rockabilly genre, perfectly. A recent band, having just formed last year, The Future Primitive’s hail from Cape Town, South Africa. A very interesting little piece of information, I thought. With howling vocals and a surf/rock sound, The Future Primitive’s are an exciting group to listen to. You can feel the energy pulsing through your veins. You want to wail and rave to the endless stream of rockabilly that’s thrashing through your speakers. The Cape Town three piece have that raw and genuine sound that’s sure to move them along smoothly and rapidly. Lovecat
