Nobody cared about their old heads, because the new ones work just fine now, don't they?.... they have the same size mouth and eyes. The song "Old Heads" is a sci-fi space anthem to technology that constantly replaces itself, proving both necessary and unnecessary at the same time. It's also a jangly pop gem, a trip through the fantastical that is ultimately warm and relatable. This remarkable coexistence is one of many achievements of Chad VanGaalen's Light Information, his sixth record on Sub Pop, due September 8th. For an album that's about "not feeling comfortable with really anything," as VanGaalen says, Light Information is nonetheless a vivid, welcoming journey through future worlds and relentless memories. The rich soundscapes and sometimes jarring imagery could only come from the mind of a creative polymath--an accomplished visual artist, animator, director, and producer, VanGaalen has scored television shows, designed puppet characters for Adult Swim, directed videos for Shabazz Palaces, Strand of Oaks, METZ, Dan Deacon, and The Head and the Heart, and produced records for Women, Alvvays, and others. While alienation has always been a theme of VanGaalen's music, Light Information draws on a new kind of wisdom--and anxiety--gained as he watches his kids growing up. "Being a parent has given me a sort of alternate perspective, worrying about exposure to a new type of consciousness that's happening through the internet," he says. Throughout the dark-wave reverb of Light Information are stories of paranoia, disembodiment, and isolation--but there's also playfulness, empathy, and intimacy. The product of six years' work, going back even before 2014's Shrink Dust, Light Information emerged from the experimental instruments that fill VanGaalen's Calgary garage studio. As always, VanGaalen wrote, played, and produced all of the music on Light Information (save Ryan Bourne's bass part on "Mystery Elementals" and vocals on "Static Shape" from his young daughters Ezzy and Pip), and designed the cover art.

Songs of Bob Dylan is a project I’ve been wanting to do since I first covered Bob’s “Man in the Long Black Coat” on my album Relish. Bob has been a tremendous inspiration, and I’ve been lucky enough to record with him and to sing onstage with him when I toured with the Dead. After getting a chance to do an all-Dylan show during a two week residency in NYC earlier this year, I decided now is the time to make this album. There is of course a deep well of brilliant songs to choose from, and the fact that the Nobel Prize committee has recently honored him makes me even more excited about it. We’ve started recording the album and it will be released next spring. We’ll be posting video updates and behind the scenes looks at the recording sessions so you can come along for the ride. Thanks as always for your love and support—I can’t wait for you to hear it! Record Label: Womanly Hips Records Style: Singer/Singwriter

Frére alias Alexander Körner comes from Bochum and is very active in the music business at the beginning of the 20th century. Before his career in the Indiepop, he was supposed to be a bassist in a punk-powermetal hip-hop electro band. His new record suggests quite different tones. The harsh times have long since passed. Already in the intro flatter mystic synthesizer sounds, which pass seamlessly into the title song "Void". He sings in a typical singer songwriter style, giving a blessing to James Blunt or Ed Sheeran. The fans of the two Britains may forgive us. But "Void" simply sounds more creative and imaginative. The young musicians from Bochum succeed the exciting balancing act between pleasant indie pop and artistic demand. To an analogue basic arrangement with guitar, voice and drum, Frére builds up a lot of fantastic effects that captivate the listener or just blown away. The song "Shadows" is an example. Spatial, classical guitar, a catchy chorus and a lot of dynamics fascinate from the beginning. The fantastic singing pauses he skillfully bridged with electronic effects up to the next employment. Similar, just born and more focused on the guitar is the song "Ghost". to enjoy. Here it is worth to listen more closely. Straight As far as the lyrics are concerned, Frére formulates without a doubt. He speaks his subjects honestly and unreservedly, without claiming to have thoroughly investigated the contents. The young Bochumer, who still likes to walk through subways and is going to parties, "Void" made an adult album with great sound. Well-made and sophisticated indie pop without the flattering attitude of many popular contemporaries. Record Label: Popup-Records Style: Indie Pop

Mystic folk from the Netherlands with influences from Orient and Occident coupled with European folk. Remember, there was a time before us. In this old world, a sense of belonging and feeling of oneness kept us together through storm and flood. Remember, there was a place; a center in the cycles of life, a portal to the inner earth. Marked with stone monuments, such places stood aligned with the pathway to the stars. Remember, there was a name at the beginning: Omphalos, the navel of the earth.

Trinity Lane is a raw, country-fried rock-and-roll album. This record was written mostly in the summer of 2016 in my apartment off of Trinity Lane. A few tunes came out on the road as well. After moving out of an ex's house, I settled into a new neighbourhood down the road. Shortly after, I picked up a tour with my good friend John Moreland where we went to the West Coast and back. I was trailing them in my little 2002 Honda Accord that has literally been all over the country with me. A woman in my early 30s, I found myself sick of my same old shit. I was inspired by the landscape of the west. My faith was tested on the curves of the Highway 101 through the Red Woods. I got terrifyingly stoned on weed gummy bears in Denver. I saw real cowboys in Wyoming and drove through a flood in Arkansas. I felt displaced, but connected. Upon returning to the south, my home of Tennessee, I slunk back into my nook off of Trinity. I went over all the things I'd seen. There had been a freedom in being so far away - a lack of responsibility, a distance from some of the issues, if you will, though I'd carried them right with me, back to my birthplace of Los Angeles, peering over the ocean, wondering how you can come so far yet end up in the same place. I contemplated fleeing and just staying in California, but the south is my home and I had to deal with what needed to be dealt with. I started to write. And go to the park. And listen to records. And play my guitar every night. Every time I wanted a man, I picked up my guitar. Every time I wanted a drink, I picked up my guitar. Love will take you to the darkest places but also to the most honest places if you let it. Learning how to love myself is something I've always been lousy with, and I spent some time on that. I thought about my sobriety, what that means to me, the struggles I'd had throughout the years, since I was a 27-year-old and hung up my toxic drinking habit. I thought about my mother, who took her own life when I was a baby, not far from my age at 30 years old, and I related to her more than ever. As you can see, there was plenty of time spent on my own. I didn't talk to that many folks, albeit a few close friends, and leaned into my family. I stayed away from men, and danced alone in the evenings, looking out my window observing my humble and lively neighborhood. I found power in being by myself. I found peace in the people I was surrounded with - we didn't really know one another, but we smiled when passed on the street. One time I almost rear-ended an older woman in her car backing out of my driveway and I said, "Oh man, I'm just not used to any cars coming around this bend." She replied, "This is our little hideout, baby.” And it really was. The woods were behind me, Dickerson Pike was in the front. So after a while, I had all these songs to play, and wanted to share them. I wanted to get out of town to get some distance from everything, so after an ongoing conversation with Michael Trent, I took my band to Johns Island, SC and we holed up for a few weeks. I poured my heart out, and trusted them with it, and these guys gave it right back. I think we all understood what it's like to question home, intention, demons, love....I think most people understand that. I hope you love this record, I made it for you.

LP - Heavyweight Vinyl with Download. First time on Vinyl. Loose Music re-issue On My Page, Courtney Marie Andrews’ 2013 album, the predecessor to the highly successful Honest Life. For a decade or so since Courtney’s been a session and backup singer and guitarist for nearly 40 artists – from Jimmy Eat World to Damien Jurado - but she never stopped writing her own material. With plans to settle down for a bit and focus on her own songs, Courtney moved to Seattle in 2011 and recorded her last full-length record On My Page. However, the record had hardly been released before she was on the road again performing other artists’ songs, eventually leading her overseas to play guitar and sing with Belgian star Milow. It was during this time that Courtney also wrote many of the songs on Honest Life. Record Label: Loose Music Style: Singer / Songwriter
