Links below.. But first, a message from A.P.P.

Most people think Hip-Hop is dead… That all that’s out there is what’s on the Radio… Lyrics are a thing of the past…

Well.. Here in our Orbit at A.P.P. we like to think different…

So with that being said…

Hip-Hop is ALIVE!!!

About The Hussy
“Blame” opens Pagan Hiss– their third album– with proof that a power duo pegged with words like “psych,” “garage,” or “punk” don’t have to rely solely on caveman stomping or fuzzed out guitars. Sure, there’s menace behind Bobby’s power chords, and Heather definitely knows how to bash, but there’s nuance here. They mess around with a few different guitar textures, vary up their volume for dramatic effect, and line the whole track with sonics worthy of an old sci-fi or horror movie (like the echoing laughter in the intro or the various UFO-worthy effects).”
PITCHFORK

“Kicks in the face. Guitars on fire. Catchy psychedelic punk that shakes you. Madison duo the Hussy is getting so good at what it does it may not stay underground for long.”

The Brass Rail Loudly Presents: An Evening of Indie Rock

Lemuria (Buffalo, NY)
http://www.lemuriapop.com/

Without a distinguishable understanding of the pop and intensity, a silent video of a Lemuria show would appear to be that of a blistering hardcore trio. To the viewers surprise, turning the audio on they’d find the stage diving mania and screamers are really chanting “Maybe I should wear lipstick too” or “You fit in my skin, softest I’ve let in” as guitarist/vocalist Sheena Ozzella’s dynamic, melodic voice guides the unlikely chorus. Lemuria might not sound like they are from Buffalo, NY, bu
t the band was proudly birthed there, following the legacy of an oddly eclectic, if not eccentric, music scene. When you loosen your ears to the sugary indie-pop, you’ll discover discordant notes, odd time signatures, and brutal riffs creating menacing yet catchy music. Releasing their early 7” EPs and splits on drummer/vocalist Alex Kerns’ label ‘Art of the Underground’, they landed their debut full length ‘Get Better’ on west coast pop-punk label Asian Man Records. Following their debut, and worked into an ambitious DIY touring schedule, they sprinkled 7” releases around on labels such as Hex, No Idea Records, and Suburban Home. Eventually, they would settle in with the Boston-based Bridge Nine Records with their 2011 sophomore album, ‘Pebble’. ‘Pebble’ received great critical acclaim and was featured with SPIN, RollingStone.com, and countless other magazines and websites. Now, Lemuria are gearing up to release their newest effort ‘The Distance Is So Big’ on Bridge Nine Records on June 18th. Their most mature and best effort to date, this album was recorded at the Magpie Cage with J Robbins (Against Me!, Jawbreaker, The Promise Ring) earlier this year. Look for song premieres, pre-orders, and more news coming very soon.
