New Music Monday

Hola everyone.

Another Monday. Another start of a new week. And another list of amazing new music. As I’ve recently been adding more and more new music and new songs onto my list on Spotify, I thought I’d share the best ones with you guys.

.

First of all you guys know that I’m mostly into indie pop/rock songs, so my list basically only consists of indie music and indie bands like Cage The Elephant, Foster The People and Nothing But Thieves. Most of the songs are upbeat and happy, but of course I could never write a list of songs without adding one of Eds. But I’ll let the songs do the rest of the talking. I hope you like them, please enjoy.

So, there you go guys. Those are some of my favorite songs right now. Most of them are pretty new too, I’m really curious to see if some of you already know them. So please don’t hesitate to leave a comment down below. And until then I wish you all an amazing week and hope that you enjoyed this post. And, as always, thanks for reading. x

New Music Friday

Hola everyone.

Isn’t music amazing? And isn’t it even more amazing when all the bands you love bring out more and more new music and you just can’t get enough of it? God, I love when that happens. And when I have the honor to present you the best of the new songs. Let’s go.

.

Paramore

You’ve probably heard by now that Paramore are back. And for me, I think their comeback couldn’t be any better. I mean, I’ve loved their songs before but it seems like they just changed into a more like Indie type of sound and I’m living for it. Finally an Indie band with a female lead singer I can listen to. And want to listen to. And want to see them live. For me, their song “Hard Times” is literally perfect to start their new era with. Enjoy.

.

Nothing But Thieves

I’ve following this bands story since I found oat about them last year when I took a first look at the Reading festival lineup. And I immediately fell in love with them and their music, especially after seeing them live and hearing Conor’s amazing voice live and seeing how much they love what they’re doing (Conor teared up a little bit, so cute). And now that their new album is just waiting around the corner, they gifted us all with their new song “Amsterdam”, which I think is just mind-blowingly good and shows perfectly how good they are.

.

Kraftklub

This one is for all of my readers out there, who like to listen to German music. Kraftklub is like the perfect band to represent German rock/rap bands. Their songs are plain honest, they don’t really care about what others think about them and they do what they want. And it works. Because since I’ve had the chance to see them live at Sziget I wasn’t able to get them of my go-to song list. After a small hiatus they are now back, more honest than ever with two new songs. Down below is the link to the second one they released called “Fenster” (translates to “Window”), which is basically about all the people who hate the world, politics and just say that everything is bad, but don’t act to make it any better. They advise them to jump out of the window then. I know, pretty hard and honest. But that’s how they are. And actually, their new songs are quite amazing

.

Foster The People

I think this band is pretty special. They always seem some kind of hidden from the outside world, like a secret. But an amazing one. I’ve known their music for years now and am so incredibly happy that they are finally back with new music. And I’m so in love with it. My favorite of their new songs is “Pay The Man”, which is also their new single. I think it perfectly represents them as a band and their music.

.

So yeah, those are my top 3 of this weeks new songs. I could’ve have included Fall Out Boy, but as I dedicated a whole blog post to their new song (click me), I thought I’d leave you with those four other amazing bands. I hope you enjoy their music as much as I do. And please don’t hesitate to leave a comment, I’d really like to read your opinions, especially on Kraftklub. And until then, I hope you enjoyed this post and are all doing well. I wish you all an awesome weekend and thanks for reading. x

They are back

Hola everyone.

I guess some of you will already know what and especially who I’m talking about. My babes from Fall Out Boy have finally come back with new music after nearly two years and I can tell you, I’m living for it. It’s quite funny that I just wrote about them a week ago, not knowing something new, something so mind-blowing was just waiting around the corner.

.

Last Saturday Pete Wentz, one of the band members, started teasing about something, a new project named “Purple”. And of course everyone freaked out, especially me, and people started guessing what the project would be. And just yesterday, at around 6 pm it was finally time to reveal the truth.

.

They presented their new album called “Mania” that will come out on the 15th of September. And they gave us the first info of their upcoming tour which will start in October in the US. And of course and most importantly, they uploaded a new song.

.

“Young and Menace” is a song that totally blew me away when I first listened to it. I was shocked, but in a good way, of course. Mostly because it’s so different to anything they’ve ever produced before. The chorus is packed with electronic beats, full of energy. For me, it’s an extremely powerful song and it’s enormous, because if a song can be that it’s this song. I would actually say that it’s quite epic. And I’m 100% sure it’s going to sound absolutely crazy live.

.

I know a lot of people don’t like the song. Because it’s for sure not like their old songs, I wouldn’t call it punk rock. But a lot of people actually really like it, love it, just like me. I don’t think they changed to this more electronic sound to fit better into the current music trends, to be more successful. I think they did it because everyone changes and we can’t expect them to stick to their old sound forever. And I actually really love the fact that they try out new sounds. I think it’s amazing. And I’m living for the whole purple thing going on, it’s so aesthetic.

.

I’m already so looking forward to the european tour dates, I can’t wait to hear them. I hope they either visit my country or come to a city near me. I’d follow them to end of the world, no joke. And I can’t wait for their upcoming album. To be honest I’m quite sad that I’ll have to wait until September to finally get to hear it, but I’m hoping they’ll give us some little bits and pieces beforehand.

.

I’m just really happy that they are finally back. I mean, I just saw them last year, but hearing a completely new sound and getting to hear a new album is extremely exciting. If you give the song a listen, please tell me your opinions, I’m really curious. And until then I hope you enjoyed this post and, as always, thanks for reading. x

Awesome new music

Hola everyone.

The day has come. The time is here. Two Door Cinema Club AND Kings of Leon have both released their new albums after waiting for what felt like ages. And of course I need to talk about them. With you. Now.

.
You probably guessed it. And yes, I have indeed already bought both albums. And of course right when they got released, I just had to. And I can tell you, they are both breathtakingly amazing. But first things first, let’s go through album by album.

.
Gameshow by Two Door Cinema Club

If you are a fan of this band, you probably had to go through a tough time, waiting for them to release new music, missing them when they were on their break. And now they are FINALLY back. Thank god. The album itself is a masterpiece, but certainly not for the “old” TDCC fans. Because this album certainly is a change. Less guitars, more beats. Less drums, more syhntic sounds. The whole album feels like a ride back to disco music from the 80s or 90s. But it kind of really fits.

.
Honestly, I was a little bit disappointed at first but the more you listen to the songs, the more you get into them. And I can actually see them on stage, turning the disco songs into cool indie pop with their still so well beloved guitars.

.
Overall the album is a huge change, but a good one. There are songs that are more on the funky side but also some for people who would rather stick to the guitar indie pop, like their song Gameshow. I think that every single indie fan should reallyyyy give this album a listen, you won’t regret. And I can just tell you, I’ve been listening to the album every day since it came out and it makes me more and more excited for their upcoming tour and the day I’ll get to hear all the amazing new songs live.

.
In short:

  • Album overall: amazing new funky sound but definitely a change – in a good way of course
  • My favorite songs: Gameshow and Sucker (this one really gives you a cool Halloween spook vibe)

.

WALLS by Kings of Leon

Let’s be honest, KOL have always been an amazing band. But this album right there is a whole other thing. Like I said to my friend, the album is a revelation. Every single song is better than the other one, which just adds to its awesomeness.

.
Actually, I think that is album is also a huge change for this band. It has more of a indie and relaxed vibe to it. So it’s perfect it you just want to chill and listen to some really freaking awesome music. Personally, I like the change from rock to more indie, but I guess that some people might not. But hey, you can never satify everyone.

.
Overall, I think the album is really really amazing and also their best one so far. There are more upbeat songs and also some that are more laid back. But every single one is great and Caleb’s voice is the highlight, for real. So I can just highly recommend it to all of you.

.

In short:

  • The album overall: also a new sound but a really amazing one, full of awesome lyrics, beats and sounds
  • My favorite songs: Waste A Moment, All Around The World, Find Me

.

.

So guys, there you go. Two amazing albums, two great chances to here some new music and my overall opinion. Honestly, I love both bands with all of my heart and I can’t wait to hear and see them live again. And I can just recommend them to all of you. If any of you have already listened to the album or want to chat about anything else, I’m here. And until then, I hope you enjoyed this post and, as always, thanks for reading. x
