New Band Alert

  • 11.11.09
    ON THE MOVE: O’Spada releases new single “Ten Strikes”. Ass-Shaking, Electro, New Band Alert, Ones To Watch, Pop Music | (0)
    I don't know anything at all about O'Spada, but I intend to find out more. The Stockholm act's soulful funk, reminiscent of Prince, Rick James' production style or the Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis grooves of the 80's, is getting some heavy attention and rotation. Apparently their last single "Time" got out in the world and received some praise and attention from THE FADER, Monocle, BBC Radio One's DJ Annie Mac, and they've been Band of the Day in The Guardian. Check out this new track, "Ten Strikes". We're digging its distinctly 80's retro-electro feel, and it's purposeful ...

    NEW TRACK: O+S – Permanent Scar Drone Pop, Hype Train!!, Musique Non Stop, New Band Alert, On Tour, Ones To Watch | (0)
    You already know how much I love the new O+S record. I'm thrilled to offer you a second song from the album, one that I think will give you an even better window into their sonic diversity. "Permanent Scar" is the first single from the self-titled album, and I hope you'll dig it as much as I have been. O+S - Permanent Scar You can purchase o+s from Amazon by clicking here. O+S will be appearing at SXSW on Friday, March 20th, 11pm @ The Radio Room.

    O+S haunt the halls on their etherial self-titled debut. Drone Pop, Hype Train!!, New Band Alert, On Tour, Ones To Watch | (0)
    There's a tricky dissonance that wafts through the undercurrent of the most beautiful recordings I've listened to in my life. It's the unexpected collaborations or spellbinding accidents of circumstance that unite elements into original flavors. The illogical syllogisms in music are the ones that surprisingly seem to work the best. Such is the case of O+S, whose self-titled debut will be released via Saddle Creek Records on March 24th.

    Raphael Saadiq – “100 Yard Dash” Music News, Music Videos, Musique Non Stop, New Band Alert, On Tour, Ones To Watch, Soul Sides | (0)
    Apologies to my regular readers that this video contains an ad. As someone with no hair, I am personally offended that it's an ad for Pantene; however the video, taken from Saadiq's masterful 2008 album The Way I See It, is worth sitting thru the ad. The video transports you back to the 50's when tailored looks, impecable style and choreographed dances defined your Saturday night. Disc Jockey's ruled the airwaves and Mempis, TN was finally given it's star power on the map. Imagine you are the audience and Raphael Saadiq is your entertainment for the night. I ...

    Oasis ‘Dig Out Your Soul’ Full album stream available on MySpace Bonnaroo 2007, Breaking News, British Invasion, ESSENTIAL RECORDINGS, Hype Train!!, Memphis Music News, Music News, Music Videos, Musique Non Stop, New Band Alert, Ones To Watch, Power Pop | (0)
    photo credit: dongraft I've been bragging about the new Oasis album Dig Out Your Soul ever since it leaked & I'm not one for needless banter about bands that over-hype and under-deliver. Oasis hit this one out of the park. Don't believe me? Click here to visit them on MySpace and find out for yourself. Win, win, win. Dig Out Your Soul is without a doubt the most well-crafted Oasis album in over a decade & now you can see what I mean for yourself.

    We Still Can’t Get Enough of Voxpop | New MP3 for The Boomerang Generation British Invasion, Hype Train!!, Musique Non Stop, New Band Alert, Ones To Watch | (0)
    I've already talked about how much I love Voxpop's sound here and here. I've told you that their songs are delightful & how I can't wait to hear them live. So, without being repetitive, here's another track given to Loudersoft by the band entitled "The Boomerang Generation" for you to enjoy. You can hit those other links for previous downloads if you're feeling them as much as we are. Voxpop - The Boomerang Generation Visit Voxpop on MySpace by clicking here.

    Loudersoft? More Like Voxpop Central! New MP3′s From Our Fave New UK Band. British Invasion, Hype Train!!, New Band Alert, Ones To Watch, Power Pop | (0)
    After exchanging emails with Voxpop's Alexander Miller, we're going to eek out a new Voxpop MP3, one at a time in the hopes your excitement about their new songs will be equal or greater than ours. Some helpful biographical information about the band: Voxpop formed in the wake of Alexander Miller's exit from UK band The Upper Room, who released an album and a couple of singles on Columbia. They're doing regular gigs around London, so make sure and keep an eye out for where they're playing. Since we can't get to London, we'd be thrilled if you send ...

    If I Had A Million Dollars: Voxpop Blows Our Minds. Hype Train!!, If I Had A Million Dollars, New Band Alert, New Music, Ones To Watch, Power Pop | (2)
    I've been talking about starting this feature called "If I Had A Million Dollars" -- a series of threads about bands I would sign if, in fact, I had a million dollars to help them make a record and promote them. Unofficially, the first installment really belongs to the band Anthem In that I mentioned earlier this week. However, I think you'll agree with me about installment two. This morning, bleary-eyed and caffeine-free, I read an email from Alexander of the London-based band Voxpop. I hadn't quite had my coffee when I clicked thru to their MySpace link ...

    Loudersoft Loves Brooklyn’s Anthem In | Ambitious Debut Filled With Powerful Pop Gems | Win Your Own Copy Ass-Shaking, Be A WINNAR!, Hype Train!!, Music Videos, Musique Non Stop, New Band Alert, Ones To Watch, Power Pop | (6)
    (ed. note: When putting this piece together, we had some technical difficulties with the music player. They're fixed -- full album stream after the jump.) Solid pop music is a commodity these days and, too often, the things I hear are simply "pretty good" or "okay". However, in the mailbag today was an email from Brooklyn band called Anthem In. I don't know how else to say it: I haven't stopped listening to it from the second I put it on, so I'm very pleased to tell you about the band and about the record itself. The self-released debut ...

    Loudersoft Loved Kutiman Before Pitchfork Gave Him 8.2, Still Does. Hip-Hop Notes From Underground, Hype Train!!, Musique Non Stop, New Band Alert, New Music, Ones To Watch | (1)
    You know, if Pitchfork is finally catching up with the rest of the world (me) in terms of culture and taste, I can't fault them for being right. The funk-soul brother name of Kutiman, hailing from Israel, has been a supreme favorite of mine since I heard his single "No Reason For You" on Melting Pot Music last summer, and kudos to the publication we all love to hate for knowing the good shit when they hear it. Their review of Kutiman, the self-titled debut from said funk-soul brother, is a well-deserved accolade for a freshman effort. This is ...
