Five Things We Liked This Week - 09/04/21

Jen Dan - April 20, 2021 - TOP 10 SONGS - #50

Any artist is welcome to send us a track via freshonthenet.co.uk anytime between Monday lunchtime and Thursday morning (or when we receive 200 submissions, whichever is sooner) - and all our moderators, including Tom Robinson, will listen to every track. This is our full inbox from the week beginning Mon 26th April: from Friday afternoon you'll be able to hear our shortlist and pick your favourites on this week's Listening Post which will appear at freshonthenet.co.uk/batch403

If a track you submitted does not appear in this list, it’s probably because another of your tracks appeared in our Fresh Faves or on the BBC Music Introducing Mixtape during the last three months — we ask that artists featured on either wait three months before resubmitting to give others a chance. We also don’t accept short previews or SoundCloud GO tracks that can only be heard as 30 second previews, and tracks made private after submission, which cannot be included in playlists. You will be able to resubmit the track in future. Tracks that have been previously submitted and tracks from banned artists will also be removed.

'Development Hell' features 4 tracks recorded early February 2020 by Casey Hartnett at Flightless records HQ, Brunswick. The band experimented with modern post-punk and egg punk influences to challenge their sound which has developed over their last 4 releases. Lush synthesizer pads, rhythmic drum samples and a more nuanced attention to dynamics and mood can be heard over the EP.

Limited 7" Vinyl / Digital: TheAllergies.lnk.to/LeanOnYou

Despite the troubles globally faced in 2020, it’s safe to say that The Allergies bucked the trend and came back by ultimately having a rather glorious year. Releasing their fourth studio album, achieving the ‘A List’ on BBC Radio 6 Music and Radio Eins in Berlin, climbing high in the NACC US college charts, and generally receiving critical acclaim from a world that had an understandable appetite for some joyful and fun music in their lives.

2021 shows no signs of things slowing down. The heat continues for their 2020 album Say The Word with Pioneer, Liptons and IAMS all taking Allergies tracks for their global advertising campaigns. Rather than rest on their laurels, though, the guys went full lockdown creative and have their fifth album due for release in September, 2021.

“Jumping Off” was the first new track from the album to be debuted at the end of 2020 – A self-sampling version of their 2018 track “Main Event”. As with all Allergies tracks of late, the limited 7” release caused a Discogs feeding frenzy.

Now, The Allergies power forward with the first single of the 2021 album campaign – An absolute dancefloor destroyer featuring legend of the mic, Dynamite MC, entitled “Lean On You”.

The Allergies first hooked up with Dyna on previous album Say The Word for the fan favour-ite “Hot Sensation”. But, scheduling clashes with Dynamite’s own album release meant that a single outing for that track was not possible.

No such issues this time round means The Allergies kick off their 2021 album with a serious club and radio contender to move things to the next level.

It’s a stylistic new lane for the Bristol-based beatmakers. Their trademark heavy drum chops now flowing on half time tempos, with blues guitars riffs front and centre. The perfect back-ing, then, for the UK rap legend to find his theme and raise the roof.

The 7” is backed by “Working On Me” – A classic Allergies-style screamer with a taste of funky swamp rock, updated for your favourite dancefloor/kitchen/outside space, with five other people…

TheStirFryPopStar SoulRiser

Early Life is the debut album by Oakland foursome Mansion. The guitars—one with strings tuned exclusively to C, another not tuned at all—clang as dissonant, percussive elements, but otherwise Mansion executes songs with surgical precision. At times heaving and leaden, elsewhere emphasizing negative space and dour repetition, Early Life’s left-field severity follows an earlier cassette release. The band—which features players from the defunct post-punk outfit Pang and industrial-techno outlet Cube—is familiar to denizens of Oakland’s shadowy musical enclaves. And yet, Mansion has also appeared at venues such as the Berkeley Art Museum (supporting A Minor Forest), where Brutalist architecture proved a proper structural analog to the group’s forbidding music. Early Life is the first full-length vinyl release on Degenerate, previously a fanzine stuffed with flexi-discs by artists such as Musk, Scraper, and Violence Creeps.

ORDER 12" EP - https://centuryegg.bandcamp.com/album/little-piece-of-hair

Inspired in part by the upbeat, globetrotting sound of Pizzicato Five, this song is about the desire to forget about our impending doom for at least an evening, and the adventure of dolling up and going out to dance carefree all night.
