Grouplove – MRI / Adios Amigos
Last year, Grouplove released their album Big Mess. Apparently, there was some rest material left from the recording sessions, enabling the band to release the EP Little Mess for this year’s edition of Record Store Day.
The EP is also available digitally. It features five tracks, the first of which – Tell Me A Story – is mostly presented as the single. But I think there are two other tracks on the EP that are even better:
MRI, that singer Hannah Hooper says about: “Sometimes we have experiences where it feels like it’s the end of the world. This song is about talking yourself down from that space.”
…and Adios Amigos, which appears to be based on the famous Is She Really Going Out With Him? bassline and has a rather psychedelic ending.

Grouplove – Good Morning
Grouplove – Good Morning
This band was formed in 2005 by five American friends, one of them being the son of Trevor Rabin (former guitarist in symphonic rock band Yes). Ryan Rabin is the drummer and producer of Grouplove, and also one third of songwriting/production/remix team Captain Cuts, who worked for Walk The Moon, Tove Lo, Halsey, Marina & The Diamonds and many others.
Grouplove’s best-known song is Tongue Tied, from their 2011 debut album Never Trust A Happy Song. Their latest album Big Mess, co-produced by Phil Ek of The Shins, Band Of Horses and Fleet Foxes fame, already spawned the great singles Welcome To Your Life, Do You Love Someone, Traumatized and Enlighten Me. But there is more where these are coming from, as the fifth single Good Morning proves.

Smallpools – Cycle
Smallpools – Cycle
When I first heard of American band Smallpools, via their debut single Dreaming, they made infectious, rocky radio pop. This led to slots as opening act for the likes of Twenty One Pilots, Grouplove and Two Door Cinema Club. In 2020, their music is as contagious and radio-friendly as ever, but with the guitars further down in the mix.
New single Cycle is a high-energy track with a dynamic, groovy sound. Speaking on the track, the band shares: “Life is full of beginnings and endings. We cope with the ‘endings’ and carry on until we are forced to accept pushing the reset button. Cycle is a song about starting over, the inevitability of change, adaptation and the cycle of perpetual highs and lows.”
Cycle follows Slowdown as the second single off the band’s upcoming sophomore album, due out in early 2021.

Eerste editie Werner’s Weekly online
Zoals aangekondigd publiceer ik vanaf vandaag elke vrijdagmiddag Werner’s Weekly. In deze playlist maak ik voor jou een selectie uit het immense muziekaanbod. Een overzichtelijke wekelijkse lijst zonder grenzen en andere (muzikale) restricties. Credible en plat, van alles wat. Want het is onzin om te vinden dat kwaliteit en commercialiteit twee uitersten van een spectrum zijn. Wel houd ik erg van liedjes (maar dat is de nieuwe Metallica ook) en niet erg van vervormde stemmen (met Britney Spears gelijk maar als uitzondering vandaag). Die voorbeelden geven gelijk de reikwijdte aan ;-).
De eerste Werner’s Weekly staat klaar. Daarin staan singles en albumtracks van onder meer Twin Atlantic, Sting, Everything Everything, Florence & The Machine, Warhaus, Bastille, OK Go en Grouplove gebroederlijk en in volstrekte random order onder elkaar (d.w.z.: in volgorde van toevoeging).
Als de lijst je bevalt, wat ik natuurlijk hoop, kun je hem volgen. Dan hoef je mijn aanraders voortaan geen week meer te missen. Want volgende week worden de tips van nu overschreven met een compleet verse lijst.
Wel houd ik ook een verzamellijst bij met al mijn muzikale suggesties van dit jaar. Werner Tipt 2016 vind je hier. Met nu al 33 uur recente prachtmuziek.
Geniet ervan!
Werner
