“Insides” is excerpted from Fort Romeau’s upcoming album of the same name for Ghostly. The restrained beautiful in its repetition “Insides” is deep house executed at its highest level. Look for Insides March 31st.

“Cry For Me”, the new one from SoCal’s HUNNY, showcases the band’s adeptness at merging the cold and angular guitar playing of classic post-punk with R&B rhythm structures and song construction. That blend of genre may be a relatively well-worn formula but HUNNY on “Cry For Me” are A+ and unique in their execution.

Gosh Pith’s latest is the dub-y cosmos-tinged (the band describes their music as “cosmic trap”) “Window”. The track is yet another stylistic swerve for the young duo as elements of head-y reggae and R&B seep and exude from “Window”.

New LP Transfixiation marks the return of A Place To Bury Strangers. “We’ve Come So Far”, Transfixiation’s second single, is constructed of a repetitive punishing groove reminiscent of Suicide and the Strangers M.O. of loud heavily distorted guitar walls and crashing and weighty percussion. Transfixiation’s is out February 17th on Dead Oceans.

L.A. indie pop dream team Golden Coast keep up their recent run of strong buzz-y singles with latest “Futurist”. Sugary, vaguely tropical in sound and boasting a large in stature falsetto-laden chorus “Futurist” is another sunny score for the twosome.

Iain Woods’ “Fiend” is a remarkably unique four and half odd minutes. Equal parts A-level pop songwriting construction (our friend “Mr. Woods” is a deeply accomplished melodicist) and inventive arranging (wild and voracious horn playing and drumming mark some of the instrumental’s more distinctive moments) “Fiend” decidedly indicates Iain Woods as a serious talent.

The Charlie Andrew (Alt-J) produced We Slept At Last is the debut album from Marika Hackman. New single, the eclectically arranged and supremely listenable “Animal Fear” is out the same day (February 16th) as the LP on Dirty Hit.

We loved Manchester band Gorgeous Bully’s track “925” for Rough Trade NYC’s 80N7 compilation. Here Gorgeous Bully release the latest iteration of their reverb-laden gaze-y sound on “2 Broke 2 Old”. A+.

The stylistically varied “The Intimidator” is new from Alex Burey’s upcoming debut EP “Inside World”. “The Intimidator” meshes elements of psychedelia (think Soft Moon-era Flaming Lips), 60’s pop and modern rhythm driven indie like Alt-J. Alex Burey’s “Inside World” EP is out February 6th on his Pling Recordings label.
