FRIDAY
:: slingshot dakota ::
[via myspace / john reiss]
“Slingshot Dakota has stripped down their lineup and sound for their long-awaited second full-length, but in doing so has given themselves a more defined, rigid indie pop sound that showcases Carly Commando’s sparking vocals and creative and diverse keyboard melodies — sometimes pristine, sometimes fluttering. These elements were likely standouts early on in Slingshot’s existence, and being pushed to the forefront just makes Their Dreams Are Dead, But Ours Is the Golden Ghost! all the more honest and enjoyable.” -Punknews

:: native ::
[via myspace]
“Just when I feel myself reaching that point where everything is beginning to sound a bit stale, a band like Native comes along and knocks me out. There is definitely nothing boring or generic about this Indiana band. They play a powerful blend of screamy, mathy hardcore that leaves other like-minded bands in the dust. Native’s last release, We Delete; Erase brims with a youthful energy that is nearly impossible to duplicate.” -Sound As Language

:: la dispute ::
[via myspace]
“[La Dispute's record] is quite possibly 2008′s most adventurous album, functioning as an entirely unique unit. While you can hear La Dispute draw from At the Drive In, the similarities are really only there in concept; the vocals are spoken methodically or screamed with a raw emotion, while the beat is consistently changing … La Dispute is just dark and strange enough to come out of the melee of post-hardcore wannabes with one of the most unique and ambitious offerings of 2008.” -IBTU

“There’s a feeling you get when listening to the quintet of 20-somethings from Houston called Wild Moccasins–a mix of freedom, unbreakable spirit and terribly reckless, that’s so undeniable and effervescent, you can’t help but wonder how it even exists in the present tense … It’s all harmony and hope and teenage heat and, seriously, is the sort of music that no one–no one–could ever not feel.” -The Culture of Me

SATURDAY
:: emperor x ::
[via kristiecat]
“Emperor X (aka Chad Matheny) is proudly an electronic musician, as well as an indie rocker, a folk singer, a lo-fi troubadour and an inspired pop songwriter. He switches between genres with the guileless enthusiasm of a natural born polymath, and the alacrity with which he does so is enough to make you wonder whether or not the distinctions of traditionally discrete musical genres have any use at all when considering music so willfully peripatetic … the key is not that we should admire the record for the dexterity with which a group of seemingly random pieces have been assembled to form a new whole, but that we should recognize the whole to be far greater than the sum of its parts.” -Pop Matters
“Matheny delivers on the promise once offered by lo-fi, and adds a healthy dose of modernly retro electronics that actually find something original to do beyond new wave ripoffs or folky blips and bleeps … Amazingly, Matheny seems to be getting everything right, doing his best in the places most likely to fail. Folktronica followers and the Strokes could all use a lesson.” -Allmusic

:: the young sinclairs ::
[via myspace]
“The Young Sinclairs are a new band out of Roanoke, Virginia who sound like they just got dropped off of the bus from 1960. They play free flowing, easy going psychedelic pop that would make a nice compliment to any soundtrack for the approaching summer. Their music is definitely recommended for anyone with an affection for that late 60′s, Summer of Love psychedelic folk/pop sound.” -Covert Curiosity

“It’s exhilarating stuff, conjuring up images of some vast, cosmic desert. That these boys hail from the Big Apple doesn’t seem possible; they sound like their hearts and spaced-out heads are firmly planted in some mythic Southwest.” -Tiny Mix Tapes
“Ever the Silver Cord Be Loosed is one of those rare albums where a band has come out fully formed and functional without any growing pains apparent. Let’s just hope that if the Psychedelic Americana Blues Stomp Revival trend kicks off, this is one of the albums that serves as its blueprint.” -Punk News

:: reading rainbow ::
[via thepiratehat]
philly-based e4e1 favorite – instantly affecting melodies in a stripped down guitar/drums setup that lacks nothing in its minimalism. They have a K Records / lofi vibe drenched in sunny, bittersweet earnestness that balances summer nostalgia w. fuzzy, Hüsker-style guitar passages.

“Although, he’s been kicking around the sud bucket for longer that most realize, it’s seems like only recently has he poked his rabbit head up for the rest to take notice … Nobunny’s ability to deliver blithesome songs with a maddened and frothy smile is simply brilliant. His bouncy and rollicking style conjures images of dirty bubbles rising over a landscape of unkempt, and insanely catchy hooks that will have the stuffiest of the arm folding camp dancing and acting like idiots within the first couple of chords.” -Brett Cross, Victim Of Time
