Here is a catchy video for “Furthest Blue” from Eyelids compiled and edited by David Dalglish. It is closing track from the Eyelids latest record Or.

Far From Earth is the third record from Australia’s Stonefield. The four Findlay sisters have been officially releasing since 2010, but have a catalogue they have been building way before that. For over a decade, the band has continued to grow as this video for the title track will show! You can find the new album via Flightless Records HERE.

Poster Children returned earlier this year with the politically charged track “Grand Bargain!”, announcing a new album to come in spring. The album, of the same name, is available now via Lotuspool Records. The band has now shared the new music video for “Grand Bargain!”. In the video, the bandmate’s children dressed as Jared Kushner and Donald Trump and play out many of the President’s heavily publicized moments, which include lots of tweeting, eating fast food, and the infamous “Trump Drinks Water” moment during a speech on national security. Got to love the Poster Children!

Mitski returns with Be The Cowboy, out August 17th, and presents the album’s lead single “Geyser,” with an accompanying video directed by Zia Anger.

“For this new record, I experimented in narrative and fiction,” comments Mitski. Though she hesitates to go so far as to say she created full-on characters, she reveals she had in mind “a very controlled icy repressed woman who is starting to unravel. Because women have so little power and showing emotion is seen as weakness, this ‘character’ clings to any amount of control she can get. Still, there is something very primordial in her that is trying to find a way to get out.”

In Be The Cowboy, Mitski delves into the loneliness of being a symbol and the loneliness of being someone, how it can feel so much like being no one. Lead single “Geyser” introduces us to a woman who can’t hold it all in any more. She’s about to burst and unleash a torrent of desire and passion that has been building up inside. While recording the album with her long-time producer Patrick Hyland, the pair kept returning to “the image of someone alone on a stage, singing solo with a single spotlight trained on them in an otherwise dark room. For most of the tracks, we didn’t layer the vocals with doubles or harmonies, to achieve that campy ‘person singing alone on stage’ atmosphere.”

Be the Cowboy Tracklist:
1. Geyser
2. Why Didn’t You Stop Me
3. Old Friend
4. A Pearl
5. Lonesome Love
