Johnny Kills - Not So Bad
Johnny Kills - Not So Bad
Sounds like: Wavves, Fidler, Surfer Blood
By Tobias Handke on Oct 19, 2017 | "Not So Bad" is the final of four summer singles released by UK act Johnny Kills, and they've certainly kept the best for last.  Keeping the fuzzy guitar work and garage sound of earlier tracks, "Not So Bad" has a 90s slacker-rock vibe, with frontma... read more →

Super Defense - New Brubeck
Super Defense - New Brubeck
Sounds like: Teen Suicide, LVL UP, Narc Twain
By Carolyn Hanson on Aug 19, 2016 | I have no idea how "New Brubeck," a song released in October 2015, ended up on BIRP.fm's August 2016 playlist, but I'm glad it did. Without it, I would never have known of Super Defense at all. The Syracuse-based bedroom pop artist (real name Andy Ho... read more →

Holy Wave - California Took My Bobby Away
Holy Wave - California Took My Bobby Away
Sounds like: Golden Daze, Whistlejacket, Happiness
By Christiana Bartolini on Apr 20, 2016 | Holy Wave’s single “California Took My Bobby Away” is the epitome of must-listen summer slack music. As breezy and lethargic as this track may sound, there is still a very apparent uplifting component to its composition. Lush swirls of reverberated ... read more →

Galkin - Out To Lunch
Galkin - Out To Lunch
Sounds like: Mac DeMarco, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Beck
By Sarah Jukes on Mar 30, 2016 | I love the idea of slacker rock. Making rock music like you just don't care! Haha. Jokes aside, slacker rock is serious stuff and he's an excellent taste of some that I'm almost certain you haven't heard before. So who is Galkin? He's a young guy bo... read more →

Good Morning - To Be Won
Good Morning - To Be Won
Sounds like: Mac Demarco, The Eels, Real Estate
By Hugh McClure on Feb 1, 2016 | Melbourne band Good Morning cannot put a foot wrong in this reviewer's eyes, with release after release hitting the mark. Having taken last year's CMJ showcase in New York by storm, they returned home to Australia to put the finishing touches on a se... read more →

Smile - Holiday
Smile - Holiday
Sounds like: The Jesus and Mary Chain, Twerps, Smith Westerns
By Hugh McClure on Jan 15, 2016 | Melbourne's SMILE has the honor of my first review of 2016 -- funny enough with a track entitled "Holiday" (and this writer has just returned from one). The lads have been close to my heart since their debut release a couple of years back, and have s... read more →

Good Morning - Cab Deg
Good Morning - Cab Deg
Sounds like: Mac Demarco, Real Estate, Wild Nothing
By Hugh McClure on Nov 13, 2015 | This isn't just one of my favorite Australian bands going around at the moment; Good Morning might just be one of the more prolific, too! Having recently returned from a visit to this year's CMJ Music Marathon in New York which saw them play 11(!) sh... read more →

Smile - Boundless Plains To Share
Smile - Boundless Plains To Share
Sounds like: Smith Westerns, Twerps, Cloud Control
By Hugh McClure on Oct 6, 2015 | Melbourne band SMILE has routinely been a favorite of mine since I first happened across them a couple of years back. They're not just another slacker band, hovering somewhere in between the current genre and something from a bygone era. The four-pi... read more →
