Toronto garage psych/post-punk band FRIGS have shared the video for their latest single "Solid State".
The song is part of our current playlist and is taken from their debut album 'Basic Behaviour', which came out last month through Arts and Crafts. Buy your copy here.
"The video for Solid State acts as a homage to inner dialogues that are common, spanning: gender, age and background,” explains frontwoman Bria Salmena. “While the video was intended to be a darker, more surreal exploration of these themes, the filming process ended up being a typical comforting visit with my grandmother. Exploring her aged house, and enjoying a meal with her. We were able to capture a candid and somber time. The real effect the video has is one of overwhelming nostalgia and self reflection."
Australian shoegaze/dream pop band Blush Response have unleashed their new single "Cruel".

Colombia-based (with collaborations in Berlin) electronic/cold wave/minimal project The Postmodernism Forms have released their infectious new single "Only Bitcoins".
The project, formed by Erika Gómez and Andrés Royet, are influenced by new wave, cold, minimal, dark wave, post punk, and techno tones. A hypnotic band of strong and energetic sounds with sensual and harmonic vocals full of lyrics and deep and emotional verses. Expressionist, sweet and poetic, synthetic electronics.
East London art wave/post punk/krautrock band Snapped Ankles have revealed the video for "NSA Man", their take on The Fugs 1965's counterculture anthem "CIA Man".
The song is part of our current playlist and is taken from their upcoming EP 'Violations', which will be released on April 21st for Record Store Day 2018.
About the song, the band said: "Having unearthed The Fugs' 'CIA Man' some years before, we were shocked to discover a newer, more sinister agency had taken over from the diatribe's protagonist, so we updated Tuli Kupferberg's list of ills... Of course every time the song is now mentioned online, a blip of data triggers a filter that enters a file that rings a bell in a bunker deep under a mountain in Pennsylvania. So now the forest is full of agents looking for us, and we are taping up our microphones and cameras and walking backwards through our own footprints to shake them off...". Get it here.
