Interpol :: This Mirror Weighs a Ton

Saw NYC indie legends Interpol earlier this year in concert here in Miami. They were amazing as always! At the time we did not have word on a new album, but since then they have announced new album This Mirror Weighs a Ton being released August the 28th. Been hearing "See Out Loud" being played on satellite radio a ton and I get excited every time it comes on. Starts with a bang to their trademark indie sound. Can't wait to hear the whole thing!

Check out "See Out Loud" plus title track "This Mirror Weighs a Ton" below to hold us off till that August 28th release date. 

Nouvelle Vague :: A Date with Depeche Mode

French bossa nova band Nouvelle Vague are getting ready to release a covers album A Date with Depeche Mode on October the 30th. In it they cover 13 tracks from these synthpop legends from the ones you'd expect to hear ("Enjoy the Silence", "Personal Jesus") to more obscure tracks like ("Ice Machine", "Leave in Silence"). The first taste we've gotten so far from the album is for "Enjoy the Silence" and "Never Let Me Down Again". Loving both of the covers! I will definitely be playing these out at home. Super chill and soothing renditions.

Check out those two tracks below, then be sure to mark your calenders for that Oct 30th release date.

Meshel Ndegeocello + Cat Power :: Don't You Want Me (Human League Cover)

Ran into some cool covers today wanted to pass along.

The first one is from Meshel Ndegeocello who is releasing a covers album called Synonym on October the 2nd. He covered The Human League's classic new wave track "Don't You Want Me" with Cat Power and turned it into a completely different chill and downtempo version of it.

Check out that beaut below...

Echo and the Bunnymen :: Apples for Isaac

Post Punk legends Echo and the Bunnymen are getting ready to release new album Apples for Isaac on September the 18th. It is their first new album since 2014's Meteorites! The first single they've released from the new album 'Brussels is Haunted' is classic them, elegant and gorgeous. Got me excited to hear more.

Check out their animated video for 'Brussels is Haunted' below.

Yard Act :: You're Gonna Need A Little Music

UK indie band Yard Act just released their new album You're Gonna Need A Little Music July the 17th. Digging the record, particularly the title track. The lead singer's voice reminds me a bit of Jarvis Cocker and Leonard Cohen. They have that indie rock vibe of the early 2000's on lock.  

Check out their video for their new single 'New Beginnings' below, plus 'You're Gonna Need A Little Music'. If you dig those go check out the rest of album wherever you get your music.
