3 Songs: On Repeat

Aloha – “Faraway Eyes” (The Cleveland art-rock band returns today after a lengthy hiatus to deliver their sixth album, Little Windows Cut Right Through via Polyvinyl Records.  This time around their rhythmically-driven brand of introspective indie-rock is emblazoned with 80’s prog-pop and soft rock alongside the unique jazz-informed instrumentation - vibraphone, marimba and flute – fans have come to expect for an album well worth the wait.) https://aloha.bandcamp.com/album/little-windows-cut-right-through

Abandoned By Bears – “Good Terms” (The Swedish easy-core quintet recently released The Years Ahead, their new album and first for label Victory Records.  Anthemic sing-along pop-punk melodies and energetic bouncing beats are combined with thunderous metalcore riffage and positive lyrical vibes for a heavy yet highly melodic sound that recalls former labelmates A Day To Remember.) http://www.victoryrecords.com/abandonedbybears

Rogue Wave – “Ocean” (The veteran California indie-pop band - led by Zach Rogue and longtime bandmate Pat Spurgeon - also recently returned after a long wait with their sixth album, Delusions Of Grand Fur, via Easy Sound Recording Co.  The grand new album is graced by their trademark gentle folk-pop and melancholic yet infectious melodies but is laced with new experiments in psychedelic electronics and sparkly synths, adding new textures to their tried and true sound to great effect.) http://www.roguewavemusic.com/
