Tech consistently chooses/spots in the best fucking features

 

Kid Froopy's the future. Post-EDM in a good way. Someone sign this kid.

 

Songs of Love and Hate

 

Really liking this Adeem the Artist release. Good acoustic stuff.

 

Genre: Fun Rock
RIYL: Bands that have played Warped Tour and also the parking lots of local yogurt shops.
From: Atlanta

 

listening to the kiasmos record from 2014 for first time and oh my god. it's a collaboration between olafur arnalds and janus rasmussen from bloodgroup (an electro-pop band i haven't heard).

 

Creeper are as good a rock band as any other coming through right now. I've been listening to them since just after their second EP but their new one blew me away when it came out and two months on, it's still killer.

This is probably my favourite song of the year so far.

 

I can't imagine that being anything but brilliant. In fact, Arnalds and anyone would have me listening.

 

Because wisdomfordebris didn't post a song. Even the laziest of slobs among us ought to hear this.

 

I can't remember the last time that I loved a song as much as I love Misery tbh.

 

Niece - "Legs and Arms"

RIYL: Frightened Rabbit, Friends in America, The Xcerts

 

I was sold with the EP title being "The Gay EP".

 

One of Canada's most secret treasures. Song kills me.

 

Kiasmos is incredible. They fell off my radar for a bit but I saw recently that they put out a new EP towards the end of 2015. Love anything these guys put out.

 

Paul Dempsey

RIYL: Noah Gundersen, Butch Walker, Dustin Kensrue's solo stuff

 

new band here that's really good

 

The best song I've heard all year...

 

Melodic hardcore band

 

Glassell EP, by Other Mountains

These dudes are fucking beautiful. I've always described them as basically an ambient-post-rock-oriented Bon Iver, but I don't know how well that description applies to their new EP which was just released today and oh my goddamn shit I'm excited.

 

Out of the Garden by Tancred is a really cool album
also Letlive.'s new single, Good Mourning America

 

Want to recommend an up and coming Atlanta band, Vault 51. They've been working on their launch for a while.
RIYL: Saosin, Silverstein, Normandie, heavy alt-rock bands with melodic vocals.
