Listen: A Playlist for the Sunshine

Posted on October 6, 2015 by Nikki Smith

After many gray days brought to us by hurricane Joaquin, the clouds have parted, and the sun has smiled upon Athens, Georgia. Ironically, the only clear day Athens experienced this past week was the day Father John Misty came to town, and when he left he took our hearts and the sunshine. Alas, it is…

Silversun Pickups: Better Nature

Posted on October 5, 2015 by Nikki Smith

Silversun Pickups stand true to their signature indie rock sound. In their 5th full-length album, Better Nature, synth pop beats and ambient melodies contrast with rock riffs. Front man, Brian Aubert’s, androgynous vocals harmonize with back up vocalist, Nikki Monninger for a lingering, airy effect. The soft vocals alleviate the subtle guitar distortions. Aubert describes…

Petal: “Heaven”

Posted on October 1, 2015January 1, 2016 by Maria Lewczyk

Hailing from Scranton, Pennsylvania, Petal is a band featuring Kiley Lotz, occasionally members of Tigers Jaw like Brianna Collins, and a few rotating others.  Sounding like a simpler Tigers Jaw and a less low-fi Fog Lake, Petal released an EP called Scout in 2012 that was met with high praise.  Since then, there have been a few singles released…

  The indie punk, emo punk, or whatever you want to call it band Modern Baseball has released a new single called “The Thrash Particle”.  It is unknown whether or not this will be featured on an upcoming album, split, or if it’s just a new stand-alone track.  The only thing we know is that…

Kurt Vile: b’lieve i’m goin down

Posted on September 29, 2015 by Nikki Smith

Kurt Vile’s new album, b’lieve i’m goin down, opens with “Pretty Pimpin.” The riff immediately implants itself in the listener’s mind and forces him/her to learn the lyrics. Vile, formerly of The War on Drugs, exhibits a lingering twang, ironic considering he hails from Philadelphia. His country-tinged rock combines synth-laced beats to create catchy, western…

Beirut: No No No

Posted on September 15, 2015 by Nikki Smith

  Beirut began their journey in 2006 with Gulag Orkestar. Influenced by front man, Zach Condon’s, visit to Europe, the first album combines Balkan folk and Gypsy music, which continues throughout their most recent albums. Since then, Beirut has evolved into a folk pop sound, but still incorporates the common European instruments and melodies using…

Saturn Valley: “Alive In The Georgia Theatre”

Posted on September 14, 2015September 13, 2015 by Margot Schneider

Athens, GA is steadily gaining more attention for their live music scene, as bands from their local music repertoire crank out some killer musicians that tend to gain traction outside of the music city. Saturn Valley, known for their cosmic jams and tendency towards prog-rock, is no exception. With the upcoming release of their second…

FIDLAR: Too

Posted on September 7, 2015September 7, 2015 by Nikki Smith

FIDLAR is known for their edgy sound and high-energy performances. It was unfortunate that they played at the same time The Black Lips performed at Shaky Knees this summer. Both bands have very similar sounds, and it was hard for my friend and I to choose between the two. However, Vinyl Mag had previously interviewed…

Panda Bear: Crosswords EP

Posted on September 1, 2015 by Nikki Smith

Seven months after Panda Bear’s latest album, Panda Bear Meets the Grim Reaper, Noah Lennox, former member of Animal Collective, has released his EP for “Crosswords.” Grim Reaper takes on the standard electronic-pop style constant through all of Panda Bear’s albums, but with an eerie twist. Lennox combines the style with a combination of distorted…
