Boom Said Thunder "Summer Twin"

[Name Your Price Download // http://boomsaidthunder.bandcamp.com/album/summer-twin]

I'm not sure what helped me find these two new songs by Boom Said Thunder, but Bandcamp is dropping the ball by not telling me that they were released.    Much like with their full length album this is just vocals belted out amidst complex rock and distortion.   It's somewhat like K's Choice and yet also somewhat calmer than certain songs found on their full length.    It kicks in a lot though and reminds me of Hum in other ways.

If you've really ever read what I write then these two songs will be a nice companion to the full length you should already be rocking by Boom Said Thunder.    The thing is, these two songs aren't so much like a single as they are an entire EP because they're just full of so much.    But I wouldn't be surprised to see them released as a 7" or cassingle in the very near future.  (Please?)

Dreamghost "Everything Is Alright" (Shoeboxx Recordings)

When I first got the email about a new release from Shoeboxx Recordings via Bandcamp I was hoping that it was going to be Dreamghost and though it is a digital only release I'll take what I can get from this amazing melody maker

These four songs should put you on an electric cloud between their piano and harp riffs that can only be pulled off in this manner by so many artists.    Basically, it's taking something special to do what is happening here without it sounding wrong and Dreamghost is doing just that.

As much as I was pleased with the Dreamghost cassette I reviewed before this I also enjoy these songs which you could be cliche about and say they put you on "Cloud 9", with their uplifting appeal, but I like to think of them more as being on some sort of bliss cloud and, yes, someone should totally make "bliss-cloud" a thing.
