Durand Jones and the Indications - <a href="https://roughtrade.com/us/music/durand-jones-and-the-indications-american-love-call">American Love Call </a>

Rough Trade Exclusive. Limited transparent purple vinyl with download plus bonus CD.

The second album from Louisiana-raised Durand Jones and his band, The Indications is a sweet symposium of mid-60s Stax pop and pan-American soul.

The record opens with some gritty Chicago soul, an ode to the under-appreciated and under-represented across America. The imagery is so vivid you can almost see the steam vents and main line under passes before your eyes. His brooding voices bubbles with rage at the state of the union, while the guitar weeps in the background. In this moment Durand Jones stands tall on the shoulders of Curtis Mayfield, Baby Huey and Gil-Scott Heron.

Beyond the more political statements, Durand Jones and The Indications sing of unrequited and unconditional love. As the album rolls on Durand's dulcet tones are embellished by Motown Hit Factory signatures, four to the floor beats, rich harmonies, sweet guitars as well as falsetto contributions from drummer Aaron Frazer all the time slaloming between the great cities of American soul.

The sounds are suitably familiar and an arresting respite to the brouhaha of modern living.

Spellling releases her second album Mazy Fly. Available on Rough Trade Exclusive Salmon Colored Vinyl (Limited to 300 Copies), Standard Black Vinyl and CD.

The Bay Area artist Chrystia Cabral will release her second album as SPELLLING, Mazy Fly. It’s the follow-up to her debut album, <a href="https://spellling.bandcamp.com/album/pantheon-of-me-2" target="_blank">Pantheon Of Me</a>, which came out in 2017. Over the last few months, she’s shared “<a href="https://www.stereogum.com/2006629/spellling-hard-to-please-video/video/" target="_blank">Hard To Please</a>” off the album and <a href="https://www.stereogum.com/2007928/spellling-my-other-voice-sparks-cover/music/" target="_blank">a cover</a> of Sparks’ “My Other Voice,” and today she’s officially announced the LP alongside a new song, “Haunted Water.”

True to its title, it’s a submerged and eerie piece of work, all aqueous beats and vocals stretched to their limits. A press release describes the track as “an intensely heavy song about the memories of colonial violence that haunt the historical slave ship routes of the Middle Passage.”
