Practice Strive For Electro Ecstasy With Not A Game

16 February 2021 By jesse Leave a Comment

What an interesting record.

And that was all that was written in regards to Not A Game by Practice upon an initial listen through late last year. And it still holds true. Michael Tapper, the man behind the beats of so many modern marvels like Spill Gold, Bishop Allen and We Are Scientists to name a few is standing alone in the spotlight as Practice and the resulting debut full-length is everything you’d expect from a man with a resume like that and then some.

Singles! Practice, “I Saw Love”

22 December 2020 By jesse 2 Comments

Practice is such and unique blend of indescribable sonic delights. Formed by We Are Scientists, Spill Gold, and Bishop Allen’s former drummer Michael Tapper, Practice hearkens back to a time when music was just fun and with recent single “I Saw Love” (Taken from the forthcoming full-length due in early 2021), explores and encapsulates that aesthetic to give listeners this this pure, raw thing that’s jovial, jubilant, and genuine.

We Are Scientists Is Better Than Hagar-Era But Only Just As Good As Diamond Dave-Era On Sixth Album, Megaplex

Who doesn’t love We Are Scientists already?

On Megaplex, fans are treated to an older, wiser, and more mature version of the group that once evaded a ferocious man-in-suit bear during the “Nobody Move, Nobody Get Hurt” video and later pummeled drummer Chris Cain with silly string, mustard, pies, and more during the clip for “Buckle”. Does that mean that your favorite indie/electro/pop group has completely turned over a new leaf? Not really. [Read more…]
