Slippers

Slippers mastermind Madeline BB’s new record is a masterpiece.

Like if you painted the beatles with a rattle can and wax pencil.

Slippers last record was entitled “Do You Like Slippers?”

More aptly it should have been “Do You Like Pop Music?”

Because if the answer is no to either then what are we even doing here?

In addition to being a longtime drummer who also performs in Le Pain and has previously played in Yucky Duster, BB’s other passion is animation, and the start of Slippers coincides with her time studying that trade in grad school at California Institute of the Arts. The band began in earnest in BB’s current home of Los Angeles but her love of animation and music go back to her childhood in Atlanta, Georgia.

Powerhouse of pop, this Karen Carpenter incarnate is fresh off opening slots for The Lemon Twigs and Snocaps, and a rough trade exclusive 7"

If you aren't humming this after two listens are you even alive?

Dancing in the Street.

Leatherbound Books

"The Leatherbound Books blend pop-tinged indie punk with crushing low self-esteem to create music fit for a solo lap at your local roller rink or a ride in the back of a mid-90s station wagon. This Burlington VT based trio get louder all the time, leaving their folksy roots behind and CRANKING DISTORTION!

Dan Maurice lays down the drums like a grown-up. Jackie Buttolph plays an intermediate bass, compensating well with sassy vocals. The catchy, bittersweet songwriting of guitarist, Eric Daniels, forms the core of the band. But don't tell him that - he can't take a compliment. Together, they create a blissfully transparent snapshot of the band's pith and ethos: insecurity and humor."
