Watch: Fontaines D.C. Release New Single/Video "Televised Mind"
The song is taken from their upcoming second studio album "A Hero's Death", which will be out on 31st July through Partisan Records. Pre-order your copy here.
UPDATE 06/07/2020: "Televised Mind" is our new Single of the Week!
Frontman Grian Chatten explains: “This song is about the echo chamber and how personality gets stripped away by surrounding approval. People’s opinions get reinforced by constant agreement, and we’re robbed of our ability to feel wrong.
“We’re never really given the education of our own fallibility. People feign these great beliefs in order to appear trendy, as opposed to independently arriving at their own thoughts.
“We were listening to a lot of The Prodigy and The Brian Jonestown Massacre, specifically their song Open Heart Surgery. I was interested in extrapolating those types of chord progressions and capturing this droning, hypnotic feel. That last line repeated over and over, ‘What ya call it’ is a buffer expression that people used here in Dublin. It’s sort of like ‘umm’ or ‘well…’ – it’s what people say when they’re distracted.”
The video was directed by Hugh Mulhern. Watch it below.

Washed Out Announces New LP 'Purple Noon', Stream "Time to Walk Away"
The follow-up to 2017’s Mister Mellow, was once again wrote, recorded, and produced by Greene, with mixing handled by frequent collaborator Ben H. Allen. It will be out on August 7 via Sub Pop. Pre-order your copy here.
Production of the album followed a brief stint of writing for other artists (most notably with Sudan Archives on her debut Athena) which enabled Greene to explore genres like R&B and modern pop for the first time. These brighter, more robust sounds made their way into the songs of Purple Noon and mark a new chapter in Greene’s growth both as a producer and songwriter. The vocals are front and center, tempos are slower, beats bolder, and overall, a more comprehensive depth of dynamics that has yet to be heard on a Washed Out record. One can hear the luxuriousness of Sade, the sonic bombast of Phil Collins, and the lush atmosphere of the great Balearic beat classics.

Death Bells Announce New LP 'New Signs of Life', Stream Title Track
The follow-up to their 2017 debut Standing at the Edge of the World, was produced and Mixed by Colin Knight at Paradise Studios, CA and will be out on September 25 via Dais Records. Pre-order it here.
After swapping hemispheres, the aussie outfit have found a new home in Los Angeles, emerging with a new album of fervent guitar-driven rock, stripped of gloom and punching through with a new sense of positivity. Energized by impulse, extensive touring and exploration led to the formation of an ambitious six-piece band that eventually coalesced as a collaboration between founding members Will Canning and Remy Veselis. With Canning and Veselis becoming the engine, Death Bells began to employ several underground mainstay musicians to complete their live presentation, including Cortland Gibson (Dock Hellis), Colin Knight (Object of Affection), and on occasion Brian Vega (Fearing).
The eponymous lead single is a grandiose statement, influenced by the theme song of HBO’s classic television program Six Feet Under. The lyrics are a shopping list of personal neuroses charged with wry optimism, dressed with jagged guitars, brass, and percussion providing a deliberate pace for Death Bell’s new chapter. As method gives way to melody, New Signs of Life exudes an urgent hope laced with drive and verve. .
Check out the album's tracklist and watch the video for "New Signs of Life", below.
New Signs of Life Tracklist:
01. Heavenly Bodies
02. Two Thousand and Twenty
03. New Signs of Life
04. Web of Love
05. The Sun That Shines Forever
06. A Different Kind of Happy
07. Alison
08. Sacred
09. Shot Down (Falling)
