BG110 | Feels

Posted in Band Update, Music with tags , , , , on January 24, 2017 by bleedinggold

lp1

Low Points are a quintessentially Southern California band. Mixing the sing along choruses of bands like Weezer with the sugary, DGAF surf fuzz of early WAVVES, Low Points’ debut EP ’Feels’ is bursting with stony slacker punk hooks. Led by songwriter Kevin Vega (Space Heat) and consisting of Jakob McWhinney (Space Heat, Ex-The Soaks, Spooky Cigarette), Frank Mindingall (Ale Mania, Northern Tigers, Spooky Cigarette) and Jeremy Hoover, Low Points are a fresh and honest take on garage pop.

The band balance surf rock rhythms and hard-hitting guitar riffs with deeply personal lyrics dealing with alienation and depression to create a sound that is at once catchy and haunting. Their four song debut, ‘Feels’ bounds from influences like the gritty garage pop of Mike Krol, pseudo emo-revival of Cloud Nothings to the surf punk of Tijuana Panthers, all the while maintaining a unique and memorable voice.

‘Feels’ will be released on March 3rd, 2017 through Field Trips & Bleeding Gold Records.

Aunt Sis started as the bedroom recording project of Justin Morris, utilizing live vocal looping and melodic guitar progressions to imply something larger. Based in Asheville, North Carolina, Aunt Sis now continues this aesthetic as an amplified three piece, with fellow Bleeding Gold members Will Flaugher of Petey, and Justin Hrabovsky of The Sweets.

LIMITED EDITION of 250 pro-dubbed cassettes featuring full-color, 4-panel j-cards and fancy wrap-around outersleeves. ‘9 Tracks’ contains the previously released EP “Winnebago” (Aunt Sis/Blois).

People//Talk formed in a pub in January of 2012 under the original name of So Sexual.

What started out as a few friends who had previously played in bands together thinking that maybe it’d be fun to write a bunch of songs and play a gig (which they did in the space of the first month), has 2 years later proven to have a little more longevity than any of them might have anticipated.

Within that time frame the band now known as People//Talk has developed their own distinct identity, drawing upon elements of post/punk and new wave whilst delivering a contemporary, accessible sound.

For those who are already familiar with and enjoyed the bands previous works as ‘So Sexual’ you will be pleased to find that a change of name doesn’t mean a departure from the overall sound.

space heat live

 

SPACE HEAT have premiered a new video for the song ‘Place Inside‘ – the closing track of their debut EP “Happy Birthday“. Directed by Jason Low using Super 8 film during a roadtrip up the West Coast, the video is a kaleidoscope of visuals from San Luis Obispo, Santa Cruz, Monterey, San Francisco and Marin County, featuring the dreamy NightPop sounds of the San Diego-based band.

The EP has been newly-released on fancy cassette format as a co-release between Bleeding Gold Records and Fields Trips, a new San Diego-based collective of like-minded artists releasing local music from the many associated band members and bands. There will be a Cassette Release Party on Tuesday September 23rd at Soda Bar [3615 El Cajon Blvd, San Diego, CA 92104]…come out to say ‘Hi’ and purchase a copy of the tape from the band! Those not in San Diego can order a cassette here (see below for more stores.)

BG071 // 10 Feb 2014

Songs For Walter aka Laurie Hulme is back with another slice of folk pop, this time armed with a banjo and a story about his Grandfathers philosophy, communism and constitutional stance about Laurie changing his university course to politics.

The title is from the philosopher: Thomas Hobbe’s ‘Leviathan’ of which Laurie studied during his time at university. Hobbes says that ungoverned man would be constantly at war because of Competition, Diffidence and Glory. This is a comprehensible story about family life and how it can affect your studies, read into it as much as like.

Free download here.

BG068 | Beauty / Duty

Golden Glow WEB

Golden Glow, the solo project of singer-songwriter Pierre Hall, is set to release a new 6-track EP, ‘Beauty / Duty’ on 27th January via Bleeding Gold Records, with a sound that echoes the laid-back, idyllic melodies of Real Estate and Wild Nothing. After some full band recording sessions with an outside producer, Pierre decided the sound was becoming almost too clinical and lost some of the magic that comes with the limitations of using more basic equipment. Pierre decided to abort the sessions and go back to the four-track, the result being the new 6-track EP, ‘Beauty / Duty’, influenced by Felt, New Order, Arthur Russell, Velvet Underground, The Cure, and Unknown Mortal Orchestra.

More Songs About Animals and TV cover art

BUY THE CASSETTE HERE.

Today marks the release of More Songs About Animals and TV, the new EP from Asheville duo, Alligator Indian on San Diego-based label, Bleeding Gold Records. More Songs is a continuation in Christian Church and Spooky Bubble’s journey from blissed out noise to a ritualistic form of modern trance since relocating from Orlando. Their sound sits comfortably between the visceral pulse of dance and the cerebral headspace of the avant-garde. The four track EP is a weird ride that you’ll wait in line for again and again.

Allligator Indian recorded their EP at The Reptile Reservation in Asheville, NC. It was mastered by Warren Hildebrand (Foxes In Fiction) and all artwork was created by Zach Smith (Difference Clouds).

After playing playing shows at Total Bummer and Hopscotch Fest, the duo will be hitting the road again at the end of September with Molly Nilsson. The dates will include stops in Atlanta and their hometown of Asheville. Check out all of the tour dates below.

TOUR DATES
9/24 – Atlanta, GA @ 529 w/ Molly Nilsson
9/25 – Athens, GA @ Go Bar w/ Molly Nilsson
9/26 – Asheville, NC @ Apothecary w/ Molly Nilsson, Shenzhen
9/27 – Winston-Salem, NC @ Krankie’s w/ Molly Nilsson

The second full-length release from South Wales’ HEHFU on Bleeding Gold. This time we find Bradley writing songs about the demise of the relationship that was the theme of the first album, Music For My Broken Ears. The contrast shows in the rawer sound; more lo-fi, if that is even possible, and more heart-on-his-sleeve than ever. We hope you enjoy this collection of relationship exorcisms as much as we do.

Buy cassette here.

Sex Dream is the solo project of San Francisco Bay Area musician, Benjamin W. Jameson.  Benjamin’s debut record attempts to widen the relationship between bass, guitar, and drums by employing restraint and independence between the instruments.  Benjamin’s influence comes from the sonic boundaries around an electric guitar as well as the understated power of an interesting bass-line.  He currently works out of Martinez and Oakland, CA.

Buy 10″ here.

France’s Blanche As A Name present some Americana-tinged pop from their debut EP Ravens, featuring an exclusive 3rd track available only with the purchase of the Frost single. Limited edition half-n-half clear and blue vinyl 7″ single in a gorgeous matte cover.

Buy 7″ here.

BG025 | Mmdelai EP

Posted in Band Update, Music with tags , , , , , , , , on June 27, 2012 by bleedinggold

This new Mmdelai EP might remind you of Portishead, Quantic or U.N.K.L.E. – not the usual suspects of Bleeding Gold inspirations. This one’s got a spacier/dancier feel. You might recognize the vocals – a one Annemarie Duff of BGR newcomers Miniatures. Annemarie has recently made a move from her native New Zealand and hopped shores to Melbourne, Australia, seeking new inspiration from a new city. A new band will be formed and plans for a new EP are in the works. For now you can enjoy a free download of the EP or grab a copy on 1989’s favorite format – the cassette tape. Buy cassette here.
