Today: Something New

I'm enjoying the new album from The Mynabirds, "Generals."



 I love all the different rhythms and drum beats of "Body of Work." It is such an interesting sound. The vocals add another drumming rhythm to the song. So cool!

Today: Something New

Fang Island is a little more party-rock than the mellow stuff I usually include in playlists. But "Asunder" off their upcoming record, "Major," out in July, is one song I really want to blast in my car while I'm driving around this summer.



I like that the backing track is a constant fun, head-banging lite beat while the vocals work smoothly over the top. The low-key break at the 2:30 mark allows the momentum to build again.

Today: Something New

I've always liked Jukebox the Ghost for their quirky songs. Their new record, "Safe Travels," is a mixed bag of sounds.



I really like the rock vibe of "At Last." It is kind of different than my other favorite songs of theirs. It tells a story. Also check out upbeat song, "Ghosts In Empty Houses."
