The Hush Now: Memos
Posted by musicthevanderwey in Alternative, New Releases on October 3, 2011
The Hush Now have just released a new album entitled Memos. I’ve been listening to it for the past week trying to work out what it’s all about. Memos draws quite a contrast between it a previous records like one of my favorites Shiver Me Starships. This new album is substantially poppier, but at the same time it offers a wide range of songs. Memos has fast songs, slow songs, rock songs, and a really cool spacey track. The Hush Now have created an album that isn’t as complex, but it does create a wonderful indie – pop experience.

The Hush Now
Posted by musicthevanderwey in Alternative, Emo, Indie Rock, New Releases on December 17, 2010

Last week on my radio show, Music The Vander Wey, I encountered The Hush Now for the first time. I played a wonderfully poppy indie rock track entitle “The Other Ones”. It had just enough pop-flavor to get stuck in my head for a couple of days. The aforementioned track is off the Boston indie rock quintet’s newest EP Shiver Me Starships. Although out of the six songs on EP, it was “For What It’s Worth” that left the biggest impression on me.
“For What It’s Worth” is a fantastic track because its slower, spacier, and perfect to chill out with after a hard day. In fact, I’m embarrassed to report that I actually had an emotional response to the song the first time I listened to it while staring at a sunset. It’s a fantastic tune and a quality introduction to the band.
