Fuzzy Meadows: The Week's Best New Music (February 5th - February 25th)

Welcome to FUZZY MEADOWS, where we recap the past week in music. We're sharing our favorite releases of the week in the form of albums, singles, and music videos along with the "further listening" section of new and notable releases from around the web.

Anna McClellan - "Yes And No" | Album Review

Anna McClellan - "Yes And No" | Album Review

The fact that McClellan is able to marry elements as disparate as an earnest, definitively 21st century vocal waver with cascading piano arrangements that recall the most baroque Paul McCartney or Harry Nilsson compositions without sounding either precious or stilted is impressive, and the content that fleshes out this form is as winning as the nonchalance with which the whole thing is pulled off.

Kal Marks Discuss New Album "Universal Care," Recording, and Getting Older | Feature Interview

The album pairs throw-caution-to-the-wind screamers with almost tear-jerking love songs and beautifully sung vocals. Some lyrics might be light and funny, while others tackle serious issues like climate change, growing old, and making the most of your time on Earth. Carl Shane discusses Universal Care, growing older, and his ideal recording situation.

SUPERTEEN - "Over Everything" LP | Post-Trash Premiere

They've spent the past five years releasing increasingly great albums, perfecting their vision of tattered indie rock with sharp stabs of post-punk, psych, twangy hardcore, and their own unique go at jangly art pop. Over Everything, due out February 23rd via the ever reliable Sad Cactus Records, is a sweeping collision of opposing forces, a menacing blend of explosive dynamics and infectious melodies.

Erik Phillips - “One” | Album Review

Erik Phillips - “One” | Album Review

There's a purity of vision that remains consistent throughout these ten songs. At best, this means the album flows by nice and smoothly. The flip-side critique would be that the whole thing is a bit samey, but there's no shame in letting this simply be what it wants to be. Phillips has their palette and they know how to operate within a set of limitations.

Palm - "Rock Island" | Album Review

Listening to Palm brings the same sort of comfort that comes from being in a crowded room with a thousand conversations at once: There are a million avenues to direct your attention, but there’s still a subtle joy in being able to let the chatter exist around you without clinging too heavily to piecing everything together.
