1904 is the newest track from The Tallest Man On Earth.
I’ve been a fan of Sweden’s Kristian Matsson ever since The King Of Spain. This track is more of the same folksy goodness from the solo artist, which is not a bad thing in my opinion and I enjoyed listening to it.
This new release is the first track from the forthcoming album, There’s No Leaving Now, to be released on 11 June. The Tallest Man On Earth is also playing in Vicar St on 24th October, 2012.
Passion Pit are back! Today they debut a new song – “Take a Walk”. The track is taken from Gossamer, the band’s follow up album to Manners & Chunk of Change EP. Gossamer will be released on July 24.
Today see’s the unveiling of some new music from Canadian favorites Metric. They announced their new album Synthetica a while back, it’s got a June 12th release date.
‘Youth Without Youth’ is the first track to be released from the album, Emily Haines & Co. haven’t strayed too far off the beaten track, but it’s a punchy number that will have you hitting repeat. More than enough to keep fans occupied until the album release.
Today sees the unveiling of ‘Heaven’, a brand new track from The Walkmen and the timing is pretty fitting. It just so happens that I spent the last week delving back into the band’s back catalogue and wondering when we were going to get a new album from them again. A few days falling back in love with tracks such as ‘We’ve Been Had’, ‘The Rat’ and ‘In The New Year’ was time well spent. It’s kind of crazy to think that they’ve been around for 10 years.
‘Heaven’ is also the title of the new album. In a recent write up on the Fat Possum artist page, the band reveal that with this new record they’re aiming to make a bigger, more generous statement. The album is set to be release June 5th on Fat Possum.

2012 began with The Cast of Cheers first proper single ‘Family’, a urgent jerky guitar tune that let me wanting more. Their follow up single is ‘Animals’ which sees a slight slow down in pace.
Both tracks are taken from the band’s forthcoming album Family set for release on June 15th via School Boy Error/ Co-operative Music.
Toronto, Jazz, Hip Hop, 3 Kids and a Pig’s Mask = ?. Sounds like a random list, but these things plus so much more make up BadBadNotGood, a jazz fusion trio that are currently causing a bit of a stir here in Toronto.
‘Interference’ is good. Really fucking good. You know that feeling when you hear a snippet of a song for the first time and you have to find out who the artist is and subsequently anything they have released to date. That’s what it felt like when I heard this track for the first time. Turns out the band behind it, Breton, are a group of sickeningly talented lads.
Breton are: Roman Rappak, Daniel Mcilvenny, Adam Ainger, Ian Patterson and Ryan McClarnon, a collective of filmakers & artists from London who eventually turned to music as a means to soundtrack their visuals, this then organically grew into a fully fledged band. Creative HQ is BretonLABS, a disused bank where they record and film all their pieces. Their debut album Other People’s Problems is getting a release on Fat Cat Records on March 26th. A day later, March 27th the band play The Academy 2 in Dublin. Tickets are on sale now, an absolute steal for 12 Euro.
Premiered last night on Annie Mac’s BBC Radio 1 show, ‘Tomorrow’ is more pop gold from Swedish due Niki and the Dove. Their album Instinct drops May 19th on Sub Pop.
