[watch] TEEN//Electric

Leave a comment

TEEN has unveiled the video for “Electric”, off their forthcoming debut full-length In Limbo, out August 28th on Carpark Records.  Beginning August 29th, the band will hit the road in support of the new LP (tour details via Brooklyn Vegan).

TEEN came together when Teeny Lieberson, formerly of Here We Go Magic, left her post in the latter band in order to make music with her sisters Katherine and Lizzie and longtime friends Jane Herships and former member Maia Ibar.  Forgoing girl-group gimmickry and fervor, the band’s digital-only debut EP, Little Doods, fleshed out a sound of languid, lo-fi psyche pop redolent of Paisley Underground bands like Opal and Rain Parade.  Since releasing the EP in April 2011, the band have steadily honed their sound around New York and readied their first long-player, In Limbo.

A few of my favorite new releases this week, including the latest from The Black Swans and Shovels & Rope.  If you’re a Blur fan, you probably already know about the 21-disc box set being released today, Blur 21, as well as remastered editions of the band’s seven studio albums.  As always, be sure to check out Largehearted Boy for the rest of this week’s new releases.

[hot off the press] Crystal Castles//Plague

Leave a comment

Waking up to a brand new track from Crystal Castles is a great way to start the day.  I’m assuming “Plague” will appear on the (hopefully) soon-to-be-released third LP from the duo, but I can’t confirm anything at this point.  As a little bonus, new remixes of “Doe Deer” and “Untrust Us” dropped earlier this week as well.  Enjoy all three tracks below and stay tuned for more.
