Single Of The Week: Bill, In Consideration by Enablers

This week’s Single Of The Week comes from SF’s Enablers. Not that SF needs any Enablers, because this town is basically Neverland for people with too much money, but the band is solid. Imagine if Parquet Courts decided to start taking a ton of acid, and let loose whatever stream of consciousness ramblings that came to mind. Only with a heavier dose of psychedelia. This band is trippy in all the right ways, and heavy when you need it to be heavy.

Their record, Zones, is out on June 14th and can be preordered here!

Single Of The Week: Loss & Relax b/w Half Colored Hair by Black Belt Eagle Scout

This week’s single of the week is notable because, well, it came with a b-side. So you’ve got two songs to help you make it through your Friday! Portland’s Black Belt Eagle Scout has followed up last year’s nearly perfect Mother Of My Children with two songs that manage to be delicate and noisy simultaneously, perfecting the sound that Neil Young & Crazy Horse had been fighting to find for decades. The church organ that kicks in for the second half of “Half Colored Hair” is downright chilling.

The 7″ can be purchased here, or find Black Belt Eagle Scout on tour with Julia Jacklin this spring!

 

Single Of The Week: Shitty Ballet by Bleached

The last time we heard from Bleached was back in early 2017, when they released their brilliant EP and companion zine, Can You Deal?. Two years isn’t a long time in normal situations, but these last two years have felt like twenty. So, this has been on repeat on my headphones all day, and it will be in going with you, too.

Bleached are on tour right now with The Hives and Refused, but, sadly, do not have any Bay Area dates yet. Tour dates can be found here!
