[LISTEN] Texxcoco - La Nueva

If Hinds were flying the flag for mainland Spain, then Texxcoco are the Indie darlings of the Canary Islands in the Atlantic. After getting in touch with us via Facebook we couldn't believe how catchy this track in particular was! It's got 90's Garage-Rock edges laced with Surf-Pop sensibilities. I guess growing up and living on the sunny island of Gran Canaria has rubbed off them.

Summer is here and it's in the shape of "La Nueva" by Texxcoco, listen below.

Stream Hinds' début album "Leave Me Alone"

The hotly tipped Spanish quartet have revealed their debut album to the world via a stream over at NPR. As DIY pointed out, the album comes under two years after the band (then called Deers) uploaded their first batch of demos to their Bandcamp account.

The album itself is out this time next week on the 8th of January. Give it a listen below.

[LISTEN] Black Lips - Freedom Fries

On November 13, Suicide Squeeze will release a split 7" between two of Atlanta's garage rock heavyweights, Black Lips and Coathangers. You can listen to Black Lips' new track "Freedom Fries" below.

[LISTEN] Hinds - Garden

The Spanish quartet - Hinds - have shared a brand new track taken from their eagerly awaited début album - "Leave Me Alone", and the new track in question, "Garden", is the opening track to their 12 song long effort.

Here's a statement from the band about the track - "okay, (big sigh) believe it or not, this is the announcing of our debut album. let's start from the beginning. garden is the first track of twelve songs. why?  do you know when musicians say they hate their songs? we don't know if that's true, we only know it's not in our case.. 'cause we fucking love this song. and we knew it will open the album since the very beginning. please don't say it was a shitty decision.

we've been one year writing this album only while we were home, and you guys know that didn't happen very often. but the good part of having to write songs so separately in time is that we wrote about very different feelings we've lived. these songs try to represent the 12 faces of love we've experienced.

it's funny 'cause we thought this album would be all party and cheerfulness but . SURPRISE. it's not!!!!! haha. feelings are more balanced, like in life. so suddenly we had a more sober -or even sad- album than we expected. please don't think we've turned into depressive people or something, we've always been humans, it's just we're now showing it to you.

[LISTEN] Hinds - Chili Town

Spanish Indie-rockers Hinds have revealed a brand new track called "Chili Town", which is lifted from their up-coming début album.

Speaking about the track the band said...

"Chili Town was born in a Friday afternoon.
While drinking sangria we realized that if our songs were battles, we'll always end up being the injured soldier. Rhen we were like "fuck it dude, why are we always the weak one in our lyrics??? "hat's wrong with us???" 

so yeaaaaahhh we made it! we wrote a winner song! ...right? "Chili Town" was written exactly in the same place and way we wrote our first song ever, AND is gonna be released exactly with the same team that took care of it : Lucky Number music in Europe and Mom and Pop in the US. You can't imagine how proud and excited we feel smile emoticon .

It will belongs to our DÉBUT ALBUM"
