Smooth and laid back, but never boring, the boys in Selfish Whales have a great command of fluttery, folky, calming indie. There’s always lots going on, but never enough to overwhelm or intimidate. Donate if you find yourself overcome by a sea of tranquility.

Here’s a little five track indie gem. It’s easy going, relaxing, and altogether pleasant. They guys also recently took part in one of ifyoumakeit’s pink couch recording sessions (check out that real DIY cardboard box percussion!).

I quite like this find. I’ve always enjoyed the sound of Say Anything’s lead vocalist Max Bemis. The guy just sounds like he’s always on the verge of a mental breakdown. Now mix Max Bemis-inspired vocals with a dash of acoustic folk-punk and you get The Motorcycle Industry. It’s a wonderful combination that completely caught me off guard. When a debut full length delivers like this, I beg the question, who needs labels?

Singer/songwriter Brian Bond‘s other musical outlet includes drummer Keith Carne, bassist Dave Esterman and guitarist Brian Kelly. By mixing their love of soaring, anthemic indie rock with a classic songwriting sensibility and a slice of alt-country, Communipaw has crafted a dynamic brand of indie-pop, and thus built a reputation for originality in their hometown scene. This recording morphed into a year long adventure that brought the band to eight different studio spaces and inspired eleven new songs, experimentation, revision, and reinvention along every step of the way.The resulting self-titled record illustrates at once a lush synthesis of the group’s diverse influences – from shoegaze to surf rock and everything in between – and a testament to the maturity of the band’s songwriting.
