White Blush - Neptune

More dreamy shoegaze from LA's up and coming White Blush.

Introducing – The Terrorists

In light of the recent attacks in Boston, The Terrorists have a rather unfortunate name. However, that said, their brand of lo-fi doo wop infused surf punk was too good not to share. 

Raw, unhinged, and at times sugary sweet, this quartet from Los Angeles just oozes the stumbling sneering energy of classic punk.

For some reason, every time I listen to the Terrorists, I can’t help but think of the nameless, faceless house bands that played in dingy dive bars in bad 90s movies. That is to say, they sound like the louche romanticism of urban blight that lured so many to the dystopic bowels of the Bowery in the early 70s.

Stream 30 Minute Love below, particular standouts include “Shoot It Up Baby Doll” and the title track, and be sure to head over to bandcamp to check out their more recent albums. 

Dominique Pruitt – He’s Got It Bad

Wowzas! That sultry So-Cal siren, Dominique Pruitt, is back and smokier than ever on her newest single, “He’s Got it Bad.”

Infusing 60’s pop with Dolly Parton’s Southern sass, this song bird will leave you weak in the knees.

Francisco The Man – In the Corners

Francisco The Man is straight slaying it on their latest single “In The Corners.”

With just the right amount of sneering petulance and jaded disenchantment coupled with sun-drenched guitars, fuzzy vocals, and surfy garage pop, this quartet screams Los Angeles in all its hazy beach glory.

The single drops today via Small Plates, so be sure to snag a copy.
