The Barracudas – “Phantom Creep” (Song Premiere)

The Barracudas
Adam Grundy

Today I’m thrilled to bring everyone the latest single from The Barracudas called “Phantom Creep.” The Bacarrudas upcoming double EP, Bleed Out, Get Pushed off a Cliff, Sink to the Bottom of a Lake, and Play a Halloween Monster House Party! (or…The Halloween Extended Player) tells stories of classic Halloween monsters from the all too relatable point of view of both the monster and the torch carrying townsfolk. The Bacarrudas rely on their cobwebby organ sounds and reverbed guitars to capture the essence of 1960’s novelty songs and the creepy vibes of Vincent Price movies. The result lands near an Animal House frat rock band fronted by Bobby “Boris” Pickett. The Barracudas’ Adam Rabuck shared: “’The Phantom Creep’ is a cautionary tale of the real monsters in the world. These are not vampires or werewolves, but the people lurking in the darkness. ‘The Phantom Creep’, of course, includes a warbly theremin and echoey backup vocals that were recorded deep in Victorian era London sewers. Very authentic!” Look for Bleed Out, Get Pushed off a Cliff, Sink to the Bottom of a Lake, and Play a Halloween Monster House Party! to be released on October 3rd by Schuylkill Beat Records and Mom’s Basement Records.

Travie McCoy Breaks Down Gym Class Heroes Record

Travie McCoy breaks down the tracks on Paper Cut Chronicles for Alt. Press:

My version of GZA’s “Labels.” He flipped label names into a whole verse — I wanted to do the same but with band names. Real talk: I was literally on the toilet with a stack of AP magazines, reading through all these long-ass band names: You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead, Every Time I Die, etc. Wrote the whole thing sitting there. No shame.

Elway – “Down The Lane And Far Away” (Song Premiere)

Today is a great day to share the electric new single from Elway called “Down The Lane And Far Away,” that comes from their hotly anticipated new LP, Nobody’s Going To Heaven, out on October 10th via Red Scare. Tim Browne (vocals/guitar) shared on the new single:

It feels like every day we lose more of our connection with the natural world and with each other. The simulacra of real human interactions that define our days are approaching an event horizon after which we will be lost entirely to each other and to the immovable truth at the center of our existence, which is that all the universe is meant to be shared and enjoyed, not stashed away behind layers of digital obfuscation. Touch grass before we’re too far gone, kids.

If you’re enjoying this new single, please consider pre-ordering the new record here.
