Month: August 2012

Peelander-Z, Yukon Blondes, Bleached, Christian Bland and the Relevators, Tig Notaro Lucero, King Tuff, etc. Looking pretty fun now.

I’m normally not a fan of politics in music. Sure, music is a form of expression and can often times be used to rally people together, but for me, the complexities of a political issue go overlooked in a simple pop song and suddenly a cause you once stood for becomes a marketing campaign and […]

We’re having a party soon. You’re all invited.

https://soundcloud.com/reverberationappreciation/the-ufo-club-july Texas serves as a hub that covers a lot of music scenes and subcultures. Whether it be post-rock (EITS, This Will Destroy You), hip-hop (DJ Screw, Bun B, Pimp C, etc), or folk/americana/country (Willie Nelson, Robert Ellis, Hayes Carl, etc), Texas’ musical roots go pretty deep, but arguably not as deep as its roots […]

2012 may as well be called “The Year of the Segall,” which according to the prolific psych-garage aficionado’s calendar began in late April with Ty and White Fence’s Hair and experienced its summer solstice with Ty Segall Band’s Slaughterhouse. Ty Segall even stopped by Houston in late May and gave a legendary performance at Walter’s, and now […]

It’s strangely not surprising to see Houston favorites Buxton take on the challenge of performing as the Talking Heads. Known for their unique brand of sonically progressive folk/americana, Buxton also has a knack for reimagining classic numbers into their set, covering the likes of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Paul McCartney & Wings, and even […]

Wild Nothing just released a new song off their upcoming Nocturne. “Paradise,” much like the album’s first single “Shadow,” has Jack Tatum going out of his drippy power-pop shell created by 2010’s summer soundtrack Gemini. Turning to synthesizers for atmosphere and counter melody, the real driving force is the potent groove locked in between guitar and drums that […]

Coog Radio Compilation contributor and friend of the station Noah Clough AKA Josiah Gabriel played a show at Notsuoh’s this past Friday with B L A C K I E, SOHNS, Roger Sellers, Funboys, and NIKKHOO. Josiah’s unique brand of glitchy beat-driven production in conjunction with his powerful vocal delivery, which at times can be […]

  The fall semester is fast approaching. Maybe at this point you’re regretting having wasted the summer on Netflix instead of traveling and going on adventures. No worries. Music is another great way of exploring the world. Of course some music – like those generic compilations sold at Starbucks – tend to have the opposite […]

This will forever be on our summer playlist.
