Godless America Summer 2016

S UM M E R 2 0 1 6

Sad Fish wears

their freak flags proud, exploring the psychedelic side of surf rock, keeping the melodic and rhythmic pace right over the sometimes distorted vocals.

And let’s be honest, kicking off the summer with some libations early in the day next to a pool/lake/beach/backyard/or just under a bridge, things tend to get a little weird and out of control. Never 2 Cool 2 Dance is the perfect addition to the festivities.

Starting out with “Lemon Juice” the EP immediately kicks into gear, delivering on its promise to get you dancing. “Why” is the perfect mix of garage and surf, that has heads bopping around while longingly gazing into another’s eyes. With 5 songs, most under 2 minutes, the EP still feels as though it encompasses the highs and lows of a whole out of control night. On the third track “Nights”, Sad Fish shows out a glimmering, almost post-punk, shoegaze side that seems like the middle point of an evening that you’ve lost control over, only able to reflect on life. It’s a stand out track both to the EP, and as a stand alone. On “Winter Song” the band picks you right back up off the floor, helping remind why you are there in the first place, to let loose, free from it all.

Closing out the EP, Sad Fish is able to put it all into perspective with a trance like state on “Faita”.

shimmering freak surf rock is the perfect way to welcome in the summer with something fresh, raw, and perhaps out of control. ~ openearsmusic.net

Evil Virgins just released they debut album E.V. on Godless America Records, and it's fucking great.

Recent Florida transplant Jon David formed Evil Virgins

over the past year and have been received by the local music community with wide open arms. With their hypnotic sets entrancing audiences, Evil Virgins are looking to bring that experiences to you and your ear buds. With that goal in mind they have exceeded this writers exceptions.

The opening track Losing My Mind is a coffin of sound that envelopes you in a wave of sound, that refuses to release until you give in to the bleakness of the void.

That's not to say E.V. is a post punk pity fest, with tracks like I love you and 1 ,000 memories Evil Virgins show they can pull on all the heart strings not just the ones that break. I highly recommend E.V., it's worthy of all the hot dogs in the universe.

a low fi, synth pop embrace of nervousness navigating the modern world. It's glitchy and feels like kicking the sheets after having to many nose beers in the dive bar bath room. Song's like "sorry" paint a world of a moral anti hero, who is feeling bad for doing bad but realizes when looking into the ever reaching expanse of the Universe, your feelings count for very little. I would give this album more then a shot, but a whole double whisky and coke of your time, to adequately get into it's many sounds and narratives.

Also be sure to check out Sad Jeremy live with his recently formed The Dipshitz band coming to your local watering whole soon.

Volume two in the Godless America Mixtape series.

This tape is jammed pack with some of the best underground talent from the South East. This was part of our trip out to Austin for SXSW in March all the bands on this tape also performed at our showcases. We had such a good time at Spiderhouse and everytime I throw this baby in the deck it takes me back to Austin in the Spring.

There really is something for everyone on this.
