There are so many bands full of potential that periodically release singles, sometimes EPs, but flame out or release disappointing albums. A lot of these bands are extremely talented and more than capable of finding an audience. Private Island is one of these bands and,…
High – Sir Sly
Sir Sly is a band that I’ve been keeping tabs on since their debut release in 2014 with their single, “Ghost.” If you haven’t heard it, give your ears a little early ear-day present and slip them a taste of that sweet sweet song. They will…
The Wanting – J Roddy Walston & The Business
J Roddy is one of my favorite acts to see live. The man is a bona fide grade ‘A’ deviant rock and roll god, in my opinion at least… I’ve legit seen the man rock on the piano so hard that it fell apart on…
Big Fish Theory – Vince Staples
Vince Staples is a tough artist to figure out. Always floating between reality and his own universe, listeners are usually left to wonder if we should be taking him seriously or not. We wonder what context we’re supposed to listen to his music in, how…
Little of Your Love – HAIM
As a huge fan of HAIM and their first album, 2013s Days Are Gone, I was eagerly awaiting any new music from the group. We finally have our first taste of their new album in their first 3 singles, “Want You Back,” “Right Now,” and now “Little…
Begin Again – Dispatch
I still get down to songs like, “The General,” “Prince of Spades,” “Bang Bang,” from Dispatch so I was elated to see a new album from them. I put Dispatch in a category of bands that you can play for anyone, any occasion and have…
In a Body Like a Grave – Japandroids
So I accidentally came across this gem of a song, “In a Body Like a Grave,” by Japandroids while searching for the never ending country anthem of 2017, “Body Like a Back Road.” I know what you’re thinking…eye roll emoji. Really though, give it a…
Let Me Breathe – Action Bronson
Good god, “Let me breathe for a minute man. Let me breathe.” Sometimes you just have to take a breather, especially if you’re Action Bronson, who in between cooking in the kitchen with Rachel Ray and smoking massive amounts of the good good watching Ancient…
Glue – Fickle Friends
If you’ve listened to Fickle Friends before, you know their signature sound: bright, colorful, infectious pop. With “Glue,” Fickle Friends amps that signature sound 2x to create their most dance-friendly track yet. Fickle Friends is still somewhat of a mystery, having released only singles sparingly…
A.D.H.D – Kendrick Lamar
Integral to rrrepeat is our appreciation of the music our favorite artists made before or while they were breaking out. The first rrrepeat throwback is, in my opinion, Kendrick Lamar’s best song, A.D.H.D. Based on Kendrick’s incredible catalog of music so far, its hard to…
