Well hello there. Long time no see. Posting may continue to be sporadic as we rearrange things a bit on the blog, but I really wanted to share this one. Sound of Ceres is the duo behind underrated shoegazers Candy Claws, along with some help with their friends from Apples in Stereo and The Drums. Their debut, Nostalgia for Infinity, comes out in early March via Joyful Noise.

Moscow Astrobrite-referencers Pinkshinyultrablast have been consistently leaking out some pretty great music all through 2015, so it only makes sense that they close out the year previewing their new LP, due out in February.
With every new preview DIIV gives us of Is The Is Are, it becomes more apparent that the band is fulfilling the potential hinted at 2012’s Oshin.
Prince Rama have always had a decent idea of when shtick becomes too goofy for its own good, and have psychedelically towed that line for a good number of years now. In that spirit, the duo’s upcoming LP is called Xtreme Now, and it’s a concept album about, you guessed it, extreme sports. If that wasn’t quirky enough for you, the band claims to have recorded the entire thing “on a black metal utopian commune” off the coast of Estonia with XXXChange, who’s name you may recognize from his former work with Baltimore party-starter Spank Rock. Of course, none of this would really matter if Prince Rama didn’t consistently churn out good music, and “Bahia” is damn good.
Hinds lay on some thick-ass charm (and reverb) on “San Diego”, which will be on their upcoming debut LP Leave Me Alone.
