The Public’s weekly local music reviews and previews.


 

Song: Folkfaces — “Institution Blues”
Recommended if you like: Dr. Dog, Beck

Satiracal folk band Folkfaces released their new single “Institution Blues” last week. The relaxed tune that moseys along with acoustic guitar and banjoy through the witty lyrics of frontman Tyler Westcott


 

Video: Space Cubs — “A Tired Sky”
RIYL: Four Tet, Grimes, Luke Abbott

With bombastic beats, reverberated vocals, and soft synths this driving track by Space Cubs a.k.a Suzanne Bonifacio is matched only by the blurred out, trailing geometric images of director Frenchpressley. “A Tired Sky” appears on the full length The Fire and Things Forgotten, released earlier this year on Unspeakable Records. 


Song: Bold Folly — “Sweet Like Asparame”
RIYL: Dead Meadow, Metz

Stoner jam-rockers Bold Folly dropped “Sweet Like Aspartame” last week. The track is a meandering acid-jam that paints a Venn diagram overlapping grunge on one side and psychedelic rock on the other.
