Summer Camp gave November 2011 a welcome shot of sunshine with Welcome to Condale, a gorgeous collection of lushly melodic pop songs woven around a central narrative of an imaginary suburb deep in the heart of America, a cinematic microverse of teenage lovers and loners, high school freaks and geeks.

Never ones to rest on their laurels, Elizabeth Sankey and Jeremy Warmsley began conceiving the songs that would become the Always EP at Christmas, a mere month after …Condale was released. Written on piano, the tracks took on a life of their own in the studio, erring towards the Summer Camp of melodious dance-floor ready ‘Done Forever’ and ‘I Want You’.

“FRAYED IN DOUBT” FROM IN CURRENTS NOW EXCLUSIVELY PREMIERING ON ALTERNATIVE PRESS MAGAZINE ONLINE

BAND CURRENTLY PERFORMING HEADLINE TOUR OF NORTH AMERICA WITH SPECIAL GUESTS THE WONDER YEARS, THE SWELLERS AND YOUNG STATUES

IN CURRENTS AVAILABLE IN STORES AND ONLINE VIA RISE RECORDS ON TUESDAY, JULY 10

Six years have passed since New Jersey’s The Early November released what, at the time, appeared to be their final album, the sprawling The Mother, The Mechanic & The Path. Now back and rejuvenated with its original lineup, the band will be releasing its Rise Records debut titled In Currents on Tuesday, July 10. “Frayed In Doubt,” one of the album’s harder-hitting and searing tracks can now be exclusively streamed over at Alternative Press Magazine online. Check it out HERE.

Things have changed for the little underdog band from the farming town of Hammonton, NJ, over the past six years. They found themselves with new purpose, drive and knowledge and eventually teamed up with the Portland, OR-based Rise Records for In Currents. The album was produced and engineered by frontman Ace Enders at his newly built studio called Living Room Recording.

In Currents is a record that could have only been made by this band at this specific point in time. The past ten years of the band are clearly documented here: the good, the bad, the ups and the downs, the taste of success, and the crushing disappointments. The band has grown up, lived life and seen both its beauty and dismay. An atmosphere and tension hovers over the entire record leaving one unsure whether they should smile or sigh.

The Early November have made a comeback album that strongly and positively represents their entire career. Enders describes the process of creating In Currents as “a journey through life’s joys and struggles” and “being pulled in a direction you can’t control … like an ocean current or the flow of electricity.” It’s a scenario everyone in this world has experienced and can relate to. It’s not about where those currents will eventually take you, it’s about the journey you’ll have and the experiences you’ll take with you that matter the most.

The Early November will be making the following appearances across the U.S. in May, June and July. Tour dates below.

OSHIN DUE JUNE 26 FROM CAPTURED TRACKS

Following the success of recent singles “Sometime”, “Doused” , and “How Long Have You Known?” (All three earned Best New Track from Pitchfork) you may be asking yourself, what kind of drugs do I need to take to make music that good? Is it really that magical ratio of one part THC and two parts MDMA? Well, the music video for “How Long Have You Known?” intricately details the making of that special drug. Just don’t try this at home kiddos. Watch the Cole play mad scientist in YouTube spotlight video for “How Long Have You Known?” here.

Recently inked to the uber-reliable Captured Tracks imprint, DIIV created instant vibrations in the blog-world with their impressionistic debut “Sometime”; finding it’s way onto the esteemed pages of Pitchfork and Altered Zones a mere matter of weeks after the group’s formation.

Enlisting the aid of NYC indie-scene-luminary, Devin Ruben Perez, former Smith Westerns drummer Colby Hewitt, and Mr. Smith’s childhood friend Andrew Bailey, DIIV craft a sound that is at once familial and frost-bitten. Indebted to classic kraut, dreamy Creation-records psychedelia, and the primitive-crunch of late-80′s Seattle, the band walk a divisive yet perfectly fused patch of classic-underground influence.

One part THC and two parts MDMA; the first offering from DIIV chemically fuses the reminiscent with the half-remembered building a musical world out of old-air and new breeze. These are songs that remind us of love in all it’s earthly perfections and perversions.

A lot of DIIV’s magnetism was birthed in the process Mr. Smith went through to discover these initial compositions. After returning from a US tour with Beach Fossils, Cole made a bold creative choice, settling into the window-facing corner of a painter’s studio in Bushwick, sans running water, holing up to craft his music.

In this AC-less wooden room, throughout the thick of the summer, Cole surrounded himself with cassettes and LP’s, the likes of Lucinda Williams, Arthur Russell, Faust, Nirvana, and Jandek; writings of N. Scott Momaday, James Welsh, Hart Crane, Marianne Moore, and James Baldwin; and dreams of aliens, affection, spirits, and the distant natural world (as he imagined it from his window facing the Morgan L train).

The resulting music is as cavernous as it is enveloping, asking you to get lost in it’s tangles in an era that demands your attention be focused into 140 characters.

Since that fateful summer, the band have waged a full throttle attack on the nation’s venues, where the mellow, sometimes melancholic vibes of those early transmissions morph into a manic, crashing thing, providing an apt preview of DIIV’s debut LP Oshin due on Captured Tracks on June 26th.

DIIV has also just announced new tour dates including NXNE and their record release show in Brooklyn. A rotating cast of characters including Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Killer Mike, Frankie Rose, Spectrals, Grimes, and Wild Nothing are accompanying DIIV on various tour dates. Check out all the stops below and make sure to get off the couch when they come through your town!

Serj Tankian Releases Official Music Video for “Figure It Out”

Harakiri, New Studio Album, Out July 10th

Today Serj Tankian released the official video exclusively on AOL for his first Harakiri single, “Figure It Out.” The video was directed by Ara Soudjian. “It’s a comical political song talking about abusive capitalism and the differences created in economic stature and the reaction to it” says Tankian about the video. “CEOs have gotten away with murder, until now…”

Harakiri, the new studio album from singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, poet and political activist Serj Tankian is set to be released July 10th on Reprise Records/Serjical Strike. Harakiri, a Japanese word meaning ritualistic suicide, is the follow up to 2010′s Imperfect Harmonies and the third solo release from the System Of A Down frontman.

“Harakiri proves that Serj Tankian is not just one of the best vocalists in rock and metal, but one of the most passionate and provocative artists at work today.” – Revolver

Harakiri is presently available for pre-order on the singer’s official website. $2 from the sale of each pre-order will be donated to a non-profit organization to fight global hunger. The single, “Figure It Out,” is available digitally at services including iTunes, Amazon and Spotify. Fans can also check out the lyric video on YouTube.

Serj and the rest of his bandmates in System of a Down will be performing a handful of dates in August.

“[Beat Connection] finds the warm, quivering heart of electronic music…equivalent of a sunset-to-sunrise ecstasy trip and the wistful day after.” MTV Hive

Download ‘The Palace Garden, 4am’

Seattle-based Beat Connection has debuted “The Palace Garden, 4am,” the first single off of their debut LP, The Palace Garden, out June 19 with Moshi Moshi / Tender Age. This single follows the album’s expansive track ‘Think/Feel’, an early introduction to the album which The FADER dubbed, “a song that’s easy to swallow but suddenly expansive the more you get into it” – a fitting description for this album as a whole. Beat Connection will appear at Sasquatch Music Festival this Sunday May 27th, two weeks before launching their first headlining North American tour with White Arrows. The band performed at SXSW this year, after touring with STRFKR this past fall where they played to sold-out rooms and earned rave reviews for their fantastic live set. Beat Connection will revisit these markets and more, ushering in the summer with an LP that finds the group meditating on the idea of unattainable beauty, an idea that encases magical evenings, flooding happiness, and heavy regrets.

The group began when members Jordan Koplowitz and Reed Juenger met in 2008 as freshmen at the University of Washington and started making late-summer-appropriate house music in Garageband. Crafting dorm-room beats and venturing into DJing gigs, together they worked towards their last year’s Surf Noir EP, which received accolades from Pitchfork, KEXP, Death + Taxes, The Seattle Times and The Seattle Weekly, deeming them “Best New Band of 2011.” With the recent addition of Tom Eddy as lead vocalist, and drummer Jarred Katz, Beat Connection is ready to hit the road as a full band.

BAND TO TOUR U.S. THIS SUMMER

FIRST SINGLE, “WHAT MAKES A GOOD MAN?” NOW PREMIERING ON ROLLING STONE MAGAZINE ONLINE

LISTEN: “WHAT MAKES A GOOD MAN?”

Renegade English soul-rockers The Heavy are happy to announce the release of their new album, The Glorious Dead, on August 21 via Counter Records/Ninja Tune. The Glorious Dead is the band’s third full-length LP and is the follow-up to their acclaimed sophomore record The House That Dirt Built (2009). Self-produced and with their unique, raw eclecticism fully intact, it’s their most fully-realized record yet, mixing together soul, hip-hop, rock, blues and funk into glorious, raucous party music that is equally full of heart.

The first single from The Glorious Dead, “What Makes A Good Man?,” was snatched up by Miller Beer for a national ad campaign (featuring the band in a dressing room cameo). The song follows in the footsteps of the band’s sleeper hit “How You Like Me Now?” with its monumental chorus and crunching beats. But there’s more to the album than just that, from the horror film atmospherics of “Can’t Play Dead” to the laid-back sincerity of “Curse Me Good,” the funked-up hip hop rhythm of “Big Bad Wolf” and the epic, heavy-hitting gospel rock ‘n’ roll of “Same ‘Ol.” Throughout, vocalist Kelvin Swaby’s voice soars, packed with yearning and pure soul.

Along with the release of The Glorious Dead, The Heavy are pleased to announce they will be bringing their crazy, amped-up live show to the U.S. this June with a handful of shows beginning June 18 at New York City’s Mercury Lounge and concluding with two straight nights at The Cosmopolitan Hotel in Las Vegas. The band will also be playing shows in Los Angeles and Chicago, and in the coming weeks will be announcing a full September tour. They are also slated for a performance in September at Seattle’s Bumbershoot Festival.

The Heavy Upcoming Tour Dates:

23 – Austin, TX – Red 7

TEGAN AND SARA TO OPEN FOR THE BLACK KEYS ON U.S. TOUR DATES

CONFIRMED FOR AUSTIN CITY LIMITS

Canadian pop-rock icons Tegan and Sara have announced that they will hit the road with The Black Keys for the extension of their U.S. Tour later this year. Additionally, the girls are confirmed to play Austin City Limits this October. The official ACL lineup was announced today and can be seen in full on the festival’s website.

Over the last couple months, Tegan & Sara have been hard at work recording their new album. The Quin sisters have been in the studio with Greg Kurstin (The Shins, Lily Allen, Sia), Mike Elizondo (Regina Spektor, Mastodon, Rilo Kiley), and Justin Meldal-Johnsen (Neon Trees, M83, Moving Units). They’ve offered up fans an inside look at the process of recording too through Tegan and Sara’s Carpool Confessional, a weekly video show filmed from the back of their car and featuring a wide variety of special guests and musical collaborators. Additionally, Rolling Stone rolled out weekly behind the scenes photo updates from the studio, all captured by Lindsey Byrnes.

Tegan and Sara lend vocals to two tracks on Grammy-nominated Morgan Page’s new album In The Air, including the single, “Body Work,” which they also star in the video for. Having remixed numerous cuts for the indie stalwarts, the three wanted to write something together from scratch. “Body Work” is a stellar example of Page’s skills as a producer and as an artist: brilliantly balancing kinetic house music with blissful pop.

TEGAN AND SARA’S UPCOMING TOUR DATES:

October 1 Fresno, CA Save Mart Center

October 2 Santa Barbara, CA Santa Barbara Bowl

October 4 San Diego, CA Valley View Casino Center

October 5 Los Angeles, CA Staples Center

October 8 Anaheim, CA Honda Center

October 9 Phoenix, AZ US Airways Center

October 10 Las Cruces, NM Pan American Center

October 12-14 Austin, TX Austin City Limits

About The Tour: The Black Keys have just come off of a worldwide tour in support of album, El Camino and are extending with the addition of U.S. dates in October including the Staples Center in Los Angeles and the famed Santa Barbara Bowl. Tegan and Sara join the tour as support.

In support of the June 26th release of their upcoming new album Ownerless, ATO Records band Everest will take their electrifying live show on the road, touring with Alberta Cross beginning July 5th at Lincoln Hall in Chicago. On the heels of the band’s earlier, highly successful residencies in New York and Chicago, Everest will spend the month of June in Washington, D.C, this time in association with radio station WRNR. Corona Extra will sponsor the residency.

While in the nation’s capital, Everest will play multiple shows, including dates at the Metropolitan, the Avalon Theater and a June 17th acoustic set at Baysox Stadium. The band will also make weekly on-air visits to WRNR.“We’re excited to get back on the road and make new fans in the D.C. area,” said Everest’s Russell Pollard. “When we park ourselves in one city, we really get to know the area but, more importantly, people get to know us.” Additional June tour dates will be added soon, along with a link to a tour page on the band’s website.

The night before the new album’s release date, the band will cruise up I-95 to New York City for a special rooftop album listening party and performance at the McKittrick Hotel, followed the next day by an album release party and concert in D.C. at LivingSocial’s brand new hot spot, 918 f Street.

Formed by Russell Pollard (who formerly played with Sebadoh, The Folk Implosion, and Earlimart), Joel Graves and Jason Soda in 2007, Everest caught national attention with the release of 2010 sophomore album, On Approach. Early last year the four members of Everest set up shop with longtime friend and musical compatriot Richard Swift at his National Freedom studios in Cottage Grove, Oregon. After several weeks of recording, the band returned to L.A. and enlisted Rob Schnapf (known for his work with Beck, Elliott Smith, and Foo Fighters) to produce additional recording sessions. The result is Ownerless, the band’s most potent set of songs to date.
