Interview: Me Like Bees
Recently, I was able to catch up with a great indie rock band called Me Like Bees for an interview about their new single and music video for “Radio.” The band sounds like a mix between the best parts of Cold War Kids, Jack White projects, and Manchester Orchestra. I asked the band about how they typically do their music writing, what went into the filming of their music videos, as well as a fun question about curating their perfect touring lineup.

Today I’m thrilled to share the latest single and music video from indie rock band, Dogbreth, called “Like A Walletchain.” In this great-sounding single that sways somewhere between Joyce Manor, Jimmy Eat World, and the spirit of Arizona rock bands, Dogbreth are well on their way to making a name for themselves. On the song, the band shared:
We initially had a completely different concept for this video that we decided to scrap the day before shooting. It was originally going to take place in an empty swimming pool and be kind of like a skate video, but we only had a narrow window of time in the afternoon to film it, and we saw the weather forecast say it was going to be 110 degrees outside during that time and I didn’t want to put everyone through that. So I tried to think of a video that could take place indoors – and then I remembered I had this VHS tape I found that I had been wanting to show the band, so I invited them over to watch it before band practice and had the film crew there ready to go. I’m really pleased with how it turned out and I hope people enjoy it!
If you’re enjoying the new and exciting direction Dogbreth went here, you can purchase their full-length record called Believe This Rain here.

“MoFi never disclosed this fact, nor did it change its representations to reflect the fact that its records were using DSD,” lawyers for the accuser wrote in a complaint filed Thursday in Chicago federal court. “Instead, MoFi intentionally hid this fact from consumers.”
The lawsuit claims buyers paid extra for the supposedly all-analog vinyl, labeled as either “Original Master Recording” or “Ultradisc One Step” – not only for better sound but also because they’re intrinsically more scarce than recordings that incorporate digital processes.

Coming up in the early part of next week is the 40th anniversary of the debut EP from R.E.M. called Chronic Town. The band is celebrating this momentous occasion/birthday with a re-issued CD, cassette, and vinyl picture disc that is releasing today. Featuring pop gems like The Smiths-esque “Gardening At Night,” to The Cure-sounding “Stumble,” and “1,000,000,” the five-track EP solidified R.E.M. as a name to watch in the early part of the 80’s. As lead vocalist Michael Stipe puts it on the detailed liner notes in the package, “We started like a lowly caterpillar, a pupa stage, then a chrysalis, into something resembling a pop band.” It’s a fairly accurate depiction of the sound that comes shining through the speakers on this endearing debut EP. You can definitely hear traces of where the band would take their sound on their debut LP Murmur that began to make R.E.M. a recognizable name.
