Philadelphia, PA’s Literature features Kevin Attics, Nathaniel Cardaci, Chris Schackerman, and Seth Whaland. Attics, who’d written for numerous music trades as a teen, met Cardaci and Whaland at the house venue they both operated in Austin, TX. Cardaci and Whaland each ran small imprint labels and, a million adventures later, the trio decided to form a band. Upon moving to Philadelphia the group befriended Schackerman who also joined the fold. 

In 2012, following a well-received single and a track on Gerard Cosloy’s “Casual Victim Pile II” compilation they released their debut album, "Arab Spring," which became a cult hit within the indiepop community. That album is sharp and immediate, almost mod-ish in its attack, but always tuneful and going for melody where it counts. They toured the US in support, and have performed with the likes of The Pains of Being Pure at Heart, Eternal Summers, Ted Leo, Sic Alps, White Fence, Gentlemen Jesse, Hospitality, and Brown Recluse. They also appeared on Terre T's Cherry Blossom Clinic.

In 2013 they released a follow-up 7”, “Tie Dye” and contributed a track to Esopus Magazine alongside artists like Jens Lekman and The Shins. They also played at that year’s NYC Popfest, which helped cement the buzz that was steadily growing amongst savvy pop fans. "Arab Spring" was treated to a re-mastered re-press, which followed the first pressing and quickly sold out.

Autumn of 2013 saw the band begin work on their second album, "Chorus," with lauded engineer Gary Olson (whose body of work includes records by Crystal Stilts, Mad Scene and The Beets) at his Marlborough Farms studio in Brooklyn, NY. As a beautiful autumn turned into one of the harshest winters in recent memory, Olson and the band began stretching out, enhancing the album with studio techniques dating back to the late 60s including true-tape flanging, sending vocals through Leslie speaker cabinets, and the same analog style of automatic double-tracking created at Abbey Road Studios.

The result is an album that is as immediate as it is timeless, full of effortlessly catchy and well-crafted tunes that echo pop legends like Smiths and Orange Juice. All of that time in the studio has resulted in a rich, considered sound that puts the band's arranging and playing front and center. "Chorus" is one of the most exciting pop records in years, and marks Literature at true contenders.

MOURN // Otitis

Berlin, Boston, Belfast: Alternative trio The Deltahorse is comprised of members who have never been altogether in the same place at the same time. Although the three members are scattered over the globe the bandʼs rather uncommon sound very much “feels like three guys were in the studio writing and performing alongside one another – music with the appropriate amount of grit, sheen, and sleaze.” (ALEX DANIEL, Earbuddy), and with “mammoth slabs of thunderous bass, sax riffs, and thudding melodies.” (JOSHUA PICKARD, Beats Per Minute / New York). 

The band is spearheaded by Berlin resident and founder Sash, alongside Bostonʼs Dana Colley, former saxophonist of Morphine. The Deltahorseʻs new single Easy Life pushes a brighter tone, directed by the sultry falsetto of singer-songwriter Vadim Zeberg from Belfast, Ireland - a sound probably cool enough to stop global warming. Anchored by Sashʼs fuzzy bass lines, electro-coated beats and Colleyʼs thick, electric baritone saxophone riffs The Deltahorse’s transatlantic sound borders on electronica - sticky as resin and “nothing but intriguing, unlike anything else youʼre bound to come across this year.” (CHRIS KUBAK, Striker Bill / Philadelphia).

This is a free mixtape of old material that never saw a release. Feels odd to finally be putting these tracks out there after all these years, but I wanted to draw a line under this material before I properly embark on writing my first 'real' LP.

Shouts to FACT Magazine for supporting the mixtape and hosting the video!!
