The Hardest Thing
I n the first few minutes of The Hardest Thing, lead singer David Goodman casually meditates through crackly, Alec Ounsworth-esque vocals “you are the center of your private universe” and two tracks later we’re in the middle of “I’m A Universe” — hands down one of the best anthems of 2018 — which makes it achingly clear: okay, now we’re in Lava Fizz’s universe. Copy that. Through the lens of early 2000s indie rock bands, these Balearic lads hone valuable inspiration from their island-dwelling forefathers and present their own sound in a fresh, hopeful fashion. As this year approached the finish line, it was enjoyable to discover a band who returned to the sound of many millennials’ adolescence while wrapping it up in shiny, new packaging too. In short, Lava Fizz delivers nostalgia-soaked indie rock of the highest order.” #LavaFizz #TheHardestThing #DebutsofNote #DebutsofNote2018 #BestAlbums2018 #BestMusic2018 #BestNewMusic #BestNewMusic2018 #BestNewArtist #bestnewartist2018

We are lucky enough to have a dope interview with LA #indiepop @oliverriot on our site, courtesy of @debutsofnote 's @cpatrickdood ! It takes a really close look at how these twin brothers navigate their career as musicians diagnosed with Pure O Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Check out their new EP released last week.

Debuts Of Note magazine just released an article about us written by Conor Patrick 🖤

"Last week, LA-based Oliver Riot released Neurosis, their sophomore EP. At a brisk four tracks and just over 15 minutes, Oliver Riot’s vibe goes through a complete experimental overhaul compared to their previous output. Their journey from gypsy-jazz playing buskers to avant-garde indie pop performers has been a strange and irregular one, but their talented storytelling capabilities have only become more powerful with each release.
These narrative skills shine brightest with their new EP, Neurosis, which is simultaneously life-affirming and genre-bending. The narrative pulls you deeper and deeper into this strange, dark subconscious with each subsequent listen. All four songs easily stand alone on their own merits, but knowing the story behind the EP’s inception will make you appreciate it all the more. You see, each member of Oliver Riot – twin brothers Ben and Alex Moore – survives with a rare and still little known neurosis...." - Debuts Of Note /// (to read more link in bio). 📸@cpatrickdood
#TBT to the Austin Film Fest, a place where where I met personal heroes, discovered new ones, and hung out with the huge nerds pictured above. Second year I've gone and it's only gotten better- the only place where you can listen to friends' pilots read live, bump into Shane Black at the bar, and watch as Michael Arndt blows your mind as he gives a master class on Star Wars. Also bloodpacts were made but anyways SEE YOU NEXT YEAR, AUSTIN #aff2015 #DadDadYoureMyDad
