Frederick Julius Omaha, Nebraska
Frederick Julius is underground, lo-fi pop music that conjures the vital sound of early Beach Boys records with lyrics that are visual experiments in the surreal. Each title in the ever-growing Frederick Julius catalogue is written and recorded by Matt Geiler in his sleepy bedroom studio, dubbed The Wonder Room, in Los Angeles, CA. ... more

Track 1 hooked me out of the gate, and it's an 11-way tie for 2nd-favourite. The lyrics, instrumentation, arrangement, dynamics, performance and production are excellent throughout. Others have used the word "fresh" to describe Tamar's music, and I agree. I'm never sure what will happen next and that's what makes it so exciting!

How Are You Coping With This Century?
by Novelty Island
supported by 7 fans who also own “Eagle Girls”
I could leave it here. ‘How Are You Coping With This Century’ is my choice for best album of 2021. This is my subjective view of course, but you’d be wrong to discount it. There’s surreal stories, delicious 1960’s melodies and harmonies, jangle pop, ace musicianship, faux country & western, all wrapped up in McCartney-led Beatles vibes. I can’t see where Tom & Co. put a foot wrong here. It’s a wonderful piece of pop magic.

Longrunning Bay Area group Lunchbox draw on the hard-edged and stylish sound of 70s mod for their latest full-length.

This Sporting Life
by The Smashing Times
Terrific jangle pop with an edge, somewhere between Television Personalities and R.E.M. with a bit of Kinks in there, too.

Tamar Berk's effortlessly hooky power-pop arrives with as much bright polish as it does effervescent energy.

the restless dreams of youth
by Tamar Berk

Shadow Clues was the song the introduced me to Tamar, but Suitcase and Gun is the perfect ending track for an album. Even more so, if you listen to that and automatically go in Start At The End, it feels like a bridge into it. Like going from one stage of life and starting over, only for new situations to arise.
