Hella: Untitled

-
New Hella single!

Zach Hill is proving himself to be quite the prolific force of creative and abstract nature. He released his solo album, Face Tat, last year, aided Marnie Stern with HER self-titled third album, put out a mixtape and has a full-length planned this year for his experimental hip-hop group, Death Grips, and now the first Hella album in four years. We salute you, Zach.

"Untitled," (named that because NONE of the album's songs have a title), is available at Stereogum. All link and information is courtesy of the Us/Them Group.

Hella release song from first new album in four years, coming in August



Legendary experimentalist duo, Hella have released the first track from their newly completed fifth album, due out August 2011 on Sargent House. Though neither the songs nor the album have been titled yet, the band has made the track available to fans today via Stereogum. Check it out HERE.

Hella also invites people to create their own videos/visuals for the new song and post them to YouTube -- listed simply as "Hella - Track 1"-- and post the link on the band's Facebook page.

After a four year hiatus, the duo featuring drummer Zach Hill and guitarist Spencer Seim has returned. Further details about the new recording will be released when they're good and ready.

A veritable sea of hits began with Ellie Greenwich, who passed away yesterday at the age of 68 . "Leader Of The Pack" ”Da Do Run Run” Without trying, you've heard at least a dozen of her songs, her name synonymous with "girl groups," and a pre-lethal Phil Spector . Farewell to a hit machine.

The Mailbox Giveth: Sleaford Mods

Sleaford Mods Chubbed Up + Ipecac Recordings Released:11.29.14 Sleaford Mods is an interesting entity. Following much of the rhythmic and minimal throb of Factory-era post-punk and, of course, hip hop's rise from being a "sample sport," as Public Enemy once put it, to the largely trap-centric hit machine it is today, Sleaford Mods embodies a tirade-level synthesis of the two: a beat-powered device with which to bathe in poetic and profanity-laced commentary. The group (vocalist Jason Williamson and track maker Andrew Fearn ) gained some notoriety stateside with its 2013 release, Austerity Dogs , despite having been about five albums deep in its discography. The group's new release, Chubbed Up +, is a singles compilation that includes three previously unreleased tracks. It was released by Ipecac Recordings. The mostly repetitious loop'd loop of springy bass riffs and flat percussion offer Sleaford Mods the distinction of being the more sophistica

What I Heard This Morning: Breton

I received an email via Sure Shot PR that was promoting Hemlock Recordings as well as their new acquisition, Breton . The band has a new EP out: A digital release entitled, Counter Balance . “RDI” is the song I sampled and it is a post-rock-meets-electronica mixture that seems to capitalize a bit on Foals , (an assessment all too accurately made in the press release by a writer for NME). The melodies they pick, though, are catchy and “RDI” really didn’t leave my head all day. They’re not typically a band I would discuss, but I thought Breton were intriguing enough to note. ”RDI” Here's the press info: HEK010 BRETON - Counter Balance EP Digital release: "RDI" "Counter Balance" "December" "Pop Death" "Hours Away" 12" Vinyl: HEK010A: "December" HEK010B1: "Hours Away" HEK010B2: "Counter Balance" With incendiary debuts from James Blake and Fantastic Mr Fox , Hemlock has built
