Dinosaur Jr.

I didn't realize we were getting new music from Dinosaur Jr. this year.  Finally some good news.  Listen to "Several Got Away" below and pre-order the "There Near" LP here from Jagjaguwar.

Daily Jam - Ricochet

I have watched more soccer in the last three weeks than i have in my entire life before that.  And i just finished watching the USMNT look like total dogshit for 90+ minutes.  Trump really does turn everything he touches into shit, like some sort of turd-man Midas.  Anyhoo, after a sports debacle, i like to soothe myself with some music, like the gentle, jazzy, ambient, neo-classical sounds of French trio Human.  Listen to "Ricochet" from the group's sole 1985 long player, our Daily Jam.

Winter

At the end of June, the now New York based indie pop artist Winter released "Hollow (Mixtape Version)," a '90s alt-rock throwback that bobs and crunches along like something blaring from 1995 Honda Passport tape deck.  Check it out below and download it here from Winspear.

Holy Motors

October brings us new music from Estonian alt-rock band Holy Motors.  Check out the dreamy new track "Tough Crush" and pre-order the group's forthcoming album "Heaven's Night" here from Wharf Cat Records.

Daughter of the Vine

Cambridge, Massachusetts band Daughter of the Vine make a dusty kind of psychedelic rock, with elements of folk, Americana, shoegaze, and staring westward into pink and orange skies of the setting sun.  Coincidentally, their new album is called "Holy Is the Sun."  Check out the alt-country psych vibes of the title track below and get the LP here from the band.

SONS OF ZÖKU

Australian psych rock group SONS OF ZÖKU dropped a great new track a few days ago, with the trip-hop-tinged "In You."  It's awesome.  Take a listen below and download it here from the band.

Daily Jam - Pity the Child

Here's some very cool, jazz-infused psych, blues, and soul for your Sunday from The Albert.  Dig on "Pity the Child" below, our Daily Jam.

Heavy Meddo

A couple weeks ago, Austin band Heavy Meddo, the project of former Sound Team member Bill Baird, dropped a proper full-length LP with "Spiritual Stripmall."  It's nice and crunchy.  Listen to "Cycle Says the World Is Ending" below and grab the album here from Spaceflight Records.

Daily Jam - A Change Is Gonna Come

There are a lot of great things about this country.  Don't let the assholes have it.  It belongs to you.  It belongs to us.  Happy 4th.  Listen to Sam Cooke and "A Change Is Gonna Come" below, our Daily Jam.

Bleu Reine

And here's some pretty and dreamy new shoegaze-tinged bedroom pop from French artist Bleu Reine.  Check out "Cavalier Seul" below and download it here from Geographie.
