Every Little Word “The Best of the Bonus Tracks” is an exclusive vinyl release of the best tracks taken from the Slim Dunlap double-cd reissue EVERY LITTLE WORD. “Slim Dunlap, who I don’t know if a lot of people are very familiar with, but he was a member of the Replacements. And he was really a unique guitarist, singer, and songwriter, and one of the deepest and truest rock and roll souls I’ve ever heard. He has two fabulous solo albums out that I would tell everyone to run out and get" - Bruce Springsteen

Uni Boys waltz back into our lives spinning thundering playful songs full of ideas on a self titled power-pop LP recorded all analogue across two weeks with Paul D. Millar in Brooklyn and once again with cameos from friends The Lemon Twigs. The raw power of Uni Boys undeniable pop has marked them for rock’n’roll greatness from the start. With a unique feel for classic melodies — worn proudly on their sleeves, delivered tongue in cheek, and charged with the swagger of restless youth — they’ve won the hearts of their young generation’s music scene and earned the respect of their legendary predecessors.

Power Pop saviors recorded in all their analog glory on their third Curation Records long player UNI BOYS. Returning to NYC under the sonic thumb of Paul D. Millar (Lemon Twigs/Tchotchke) Noah Nash and Lemon Twigs drummer/guitarist Reza Matin have crafted 12 new songs of introspection, heartbreak and young love - the follow-up to their success with‘BUY THIS NOW!’. The resulting ‘UNI BOYS’ album is their most listenable, radio-ready (if this was 1979) record to date, it's so super catchy you’ll not get away easily.

If the sanguine cedar scent of Cosmic Americana and the bright jingle jangle of Neo-Psych Rock has led you through the last couple of years, then chances are good you’ve had a brush with Silver Synthetic. The members of the New Orleans band ditched the dirtier riffs of their past projects (Jeff The Brotherhood, Bottomfeeders) for a West Coast curl that balanced country twang and honeyed harmonies with a rhythmic stomp that fishtailed through the speakers with glee.

An eponymous full length on Third Man fully distilled the scope of their sound, turning stage-battered ballads and barroom burners into one of 2021’s most promising debuts. They return for a second salvo, honed with a tour-tight symbiosis and some ace drop-ins from southern slingers Luke Schneider (pedal steel) and Rex Gregory (sax, flute). Rosalie finds Silver Synthetic refining their sound, softening their approach, and letting a breeze of ‘70s AOR weave among the country swagger. Between the tanned riffs, the band also balances societal burnout with sunshine, transforming scoffs and sneers into smoke-curled sighs draped in a windows-down aura.

They make their way to Curation Records for the new outing, a welcome home for the band’s sun-streaked Americana, turning ‘Preflyte’ Byrds, JJ grooves, beach-bound Neil, and ‘Water of Love’-era Dire Straits into an album that smooths the seams and steers the listener towards new horizons.
