Smoltz – “Holding Out”

2 hours ago
Obscure SoundA contemplative rock sound takes hold on “Holding Out,” a compelling new single from Smoltz, the project of Brooklyn-based songwriter Zach Hinkle (who also performs under the moniker Desert Blonde). Tranquil guitar tones and sporadic piano touches lead into a solemn vocal lead, emitting a subdued sort of grunge/rock/shoegaze intertwining that shows aptly with its “stare into space,” lyrical output. “The sirens are coming and going,” the vocals further during a psychedelic swirl of phasing effects. “Tell yourself to wait it out,” they continue thereafter, settling into the tranquility of the initial guitar/piano warmness. Multi-layered vocal enthusiasm pairs with textured The post Smoltz – “Holding Out” appeared first on Obscure Sound: Indie Music Blog. more info

Painted Pillars – “Bell”

2 hours ago
Obscure SoundA jangling rock charm immerses on “Bell,” a new single from Painted Pillars, a project that first began in a Leiden, Netherlands student dorm. They describe the effort as “about unresolved feelings of exclusion and/or a very annoying doorbell.” Excitable vocal bursts — “something’s going on!” — traverse into jangly guitars with seamless impact. The “truth be told,” raucous rock ardency injects a hooky charisma at points, with the track’s aesthetic enjoyably straddling a punk-friendly vigor with an alt-rock nostalgia in the vein of Manic Street Preachers. — This and other tracks featured this month can be streamed on the The post Painted Pillars – “Bell” appeared first on Obscure Sound: Indie Music Blog. more info

Man With A Corduroy Heart – ‘Things Are A Little Bit…’

3 hours ago
Obscure SoundAn album that captures life’s nuances and relatable pursuits within a melodically affecting lo-fi folk/rock arsenal, Things Are A Little Bit… comes via Man With A Corduroy Heart. The project of UK-based singer/songwriter Ryan Davies first caught our ears in October with album track “The Wailers” — an endearing success about trying to lull a baby to sleep with Bob Marley — and the riveting sound continues throughout the album’s other efforts. Opening the album, “The Joy of Giving Up” muses on the temptations of giving into blissful contentment. “Having goals never seemed that smart,” the vocals admit, ascending into The post Man With A Corduroy Heart – ‘Things Are A Little Bit…’ appeared first on Obscure Sound: Indie Music Blog. more info

Cal Lynn – “Maybelline”

4 hours ago
Obscure SoundThe second single from Brighton, UK-based artist Cal Lynn, “Maybelline” casts a dreamily melodic spell alongside lyrical emotions of losing someone close to addiction. The lush vocals meld with steady acoustics and twinkling keys for a blissful aesthetic reminiscent of The Clientele, also showing shades of Foxygen during the riveting chorus: “Maybelline… you used to sit so close to me. Now you’re strung out on that poison rock.” The lyrics bemoan the fall of a close companion with melancholic retrospection, as the “la-la,” vocal work past the three-minute mark injects a bouncy charm within the morose seriousness.
