The Diabolical Machines
Sleepy Kitty- Projection Room
The Diabolical Machines share their top 5 albums of 2014!
"We just found out about this St. Louis two-piece (Paige Brubeck and Harvey Danger drummer Evan Sult) this year. This album's got a great blend of fuzzy garage tones and infectious pop melodies delivered by Paige's expressive voice."
Ex Hex- Rips
"This album is pure, 100%, full-throttle punk-flavored fun. It's got Mary Timony's always-amazing guitar playing and songwriting married to the super-propulsive rhythm section of Betsy Wright and Laura Harris. Such a joy to listen to."
Honeyblood- Honeyblood
"Just discovered this Scottish two-piece this year, too. They write catchy, vintage garage pop tunes and back it up with great guitar & drum work and sweet vocals. Lots of great tracks on here."
The New Pornographers- Brill Bruisers
"Any time there's a new New Pornos album, it's a big deal, and this one is their best since at least "Twin Cinema." So much fantastic, densely-layered power pop on here, and great vocal work by AC Newman, Neko Case, and the rest."
Weezer- Everything Will Be Alright In The End
"Who would have thought a modern Weezer album would wind up being one of the best things of the year? We were really surprised by this one - it feels like the old Rivers is back, putting real effort into a new batch of old-fashioned huge-guitared nerdy Weezer power pop tunes like in the old days."
