Grand Rapids, MI-based slowcore outfit Shores are planning on releasing their new LP Leavening on August 7 via No Idea Records. Today, we're premiering a track off of that record entitled "Broderick", a track that mixes lush guitars and a mellow, almost post-rock vibe. It's certainly a bit different, but give it a spin in the replies or on the band's AP.net profile and let us know what you think!
Today, I could not be any more excited to bring you guys a stream of one of the very best records of 2012. Make Do and Mend has come a long way since 2010's End Measured Mile, and the release of Everything You Ever Loved provides validation that the band's struggles and triumphs have resulted in something fantastic. The album ranges from the aggression of MDAM's earlier music to more Jimmy Eat World and Foo Fighters-influenced sounds, as Drew noted in his great 9.5/10 review, and ultimately this is an album you don't want to miss out on. So head to their AP.net Profile to stream the whole record, and be sure to check back tomorrow or Wednesday for our Too Long; Do Read feature on the band.
Morrissey has announced a tour of the U.S. for later this year including a show in Los Angeles with Iggy & The Stooges. Hit the replies to check out more details.
