Alfredo & Edeath, are a couple of music lovers who met later in life but grew up loving almost the same bands and hating others but always listening to music, old and new, and apart from collecting vinyl and books and going to see every good band coming to town, (or a few miles away), got together and created "I think i better follow you around", a website/music blog, where they share all the music they like and help promote upcoming concerts, local bands from San Diego and Tijuana and amazing artists from around the world.
I think I better follow you around is an independent project.
Heartworms have shared a new single, “Extraordinary Wings”, off her upcoming album “Glutton For Punishment” out February 7th via Speedy Wunderground.
TRACKLIST:
1. In The Beginning 2. Just To Ask A Dance 3. Jacked 4. Mad Catch 5. Extraordinary Wings 6. Warplane 7. Celebrate 8. Smuggler’s Adventure 9. Glutton For Punishment
The video for the song was directed by Gilbert Trejo.
Jojo Orme shared this about the album: “‘Glutton for Punishment’ pushes beyond the post-punk pigeonhole of my earlier work, balancing brooding intensity with moments of pop-infused catchiness. I can do post-punk, but I can also be poppy and catchy, and this album represents that. I think people might be surprised when they hear it. ‘Glutton for Punishment’ tackles themes of broken families and fractured relationships with bracing candor, infused with a disquieting sense that I find a drawing to the chaos. We’re all so drawn to punishing ourselves, and I’m always drawn to singing about it, and thinking about it.”
Circuit des Yeux has shared the first single, “Megaloner”, off her upcoming album “Halo On The Inside” out March 14th via Matador.
TRACKLIST:
01. Megaloner 02. Canopy of Eden 03. Skeleton Key 04. Anthem of Me 05. Cosmic Joke 06. Cathexis 07. Truth 08. Organ Bed 09. It Takes My Pain Away
Haley Fohr shared this about the song: “‘Megaloner’ is an anthem for the place that exists after an action and inside its consequence. Prices are being paid and hope is our currency. I’m singing about endurance, faith, agency, and the singular, unbelievable path toward one’s own fate”.
The video for the song was directed by Dana Trippe.
Fohr shared this about the album: “I found a very surprising, small voice in me, and it was deep, deep behind my heart. Through the process of making this music I was able to rewind myself to a time before fear. And in the absence of fear I found the intimate beat of sex, love, and melody”.
Friend Of A Friend have shared the first single, “beautiful ppl”, off their upcoming album “Desire!” out sometime in April via Earth Librarian.
The band shared this about “beautiful ppl”: “We made this song on tour with Jessica and Jordan for a few weeks. It just sort of appeared. Desire as the sword.”
They also shared this regarding the recording of the album: “The making of “Desire!” was defined by the environment: a sprawling Victorian mansion in Illinois chosen for its seclusion, reverb-friendly spaces, and serene desert surroundings. Initially, the house seemed like the perfect creative retreat, but its unsettling presence quickly revealed itself. Strange creaks and unexplained noises filled the nights, and both of us (Claire and Jason), usually unfazed by old houses, found ourselves sleeping with the doors open, gripped by an unshakable sense that we weren’t alone.
We tried to make it feel like home. We lit candles, baked bread, cooked elaborate meals—anything to fill the space with warmth. It was as if we were pushing back against something intangible, trying to ground ourselves while leaning into the house’s energy.
Three days in, we received an ominous call from the homeowner. He started the conversation casually, and then he just said, ‘By the way, the townspeople might tell you that the house is haunted.’” The owner went on to reveal that the house had been a gathering place for 19th-century spiritualists and was the site of the first documented exorcism in the United States. To our surprise, the house had also inspired a horror film and was well-documented in paranormal circles.
This revelation shifted our understanding of the house and the album. It all clicked. The weird energy, the sleepless nights, the feeling that the songs were coming from somewhere outside ourselves. It wasn’t just us in that house. Instead of retreating, we leaned into the experience. The house became a collaborator, with its echoes and energy weaving themselves into the fabric of the album.
From the first day, the house’s ambiance shaped the recording process. Its creaks, bird calls, and eerie silence became part of the sonic palette. The place was alive in its own way. It all seeped into the music—every sound, every take. We recorded mostly at night in dimly lit rooms, capturing an urgency that permeates the record. It felt like we were chasing something fleeting. We didn’t want to lose it.”
The Jesus Lizard have released a digital stand alone single, “Westside”, available now via Ipecac.
Duane Denison shared this about it: “’Westside’ goes along with the previous single, ‘Cost of Living”, which was subconsciously influenced by Leonard Bernstein’s ‘West Side Story’ and hence the name. Really.”
David Yow shared this about it: “There is a part in ‘Westside’ where the lyrics say, ‘… give him back his arm.’ That was inspired by David Lynch’s ‘Lost Highway,’ when Robert Blake’s character says, ‘Give me back my phone.’”
Alabaster DePlume has shared the first single, “Oh My Actual Days”, off his upcoming album “A Blade Because A Blade Is Whole” out March 7th via International Anthem.
TRACKLIST:
01. Oh My Actual Days 02. Thank You My Pain 03. Invincibility 04. Form a V 05. A Paper Man 06. Who Are You Telling, Gus 07. Prayer For My Sovereign Dignity 08. Kuzushi 09. Salty Road Dogs Victory Anthem 10. Too True 11. That Was My Garden
Alabaster DePlume shared this about the single: “We can, if we choose, read this phrase as a call to the divinity of the moment we are in. Wherever we are, whatever is happening, it is our own life – a life that is made up of the time (the days – the actual days) that we spend. And we call to this – the only real thing that we have. Our time. Whatever we are experiencing it belongs to us, it is the ‘actual’ moment we are in. And it is divine. This is the introduction to the album.”
The video was directed by artist Rebecca Salvadori, who also shot the album cover.
Alabaster DePlume shared this about the title of the album: “A blade, because a blade is whole, it has forgiven itself, and because it will take a small piece of our opposite, for us to be complete. A blade has marked out these former selves on my hand, a blade made the lines that divine us and the blade is whole. A blade. While I forgive myself, and heal, and lead us in healing. We can only forgive each other once we forgive ourselves. We can only heal each other while we heal ourselves.”
Deep Sea Diver have shared the second single, “Shovel”, off their upcoming album “Billboard Heart” out February 28th via Sub Pop.
The video was co-directed by Jessica Dobson and Peter Mansen.
Jessica Dobson shared this about the song: “‘Shovel’ is one of the most angular and dualistic songs I’ve written, and I wanted to do a one-shot video that captured the grit, rawness, and intensity of the song. Simply put, it is me digging and dancing with a shovel in the middle of the night, desperately looking for beauty in dark places. Influenced by Lynch, the Cohen brothers, Nick Cave, and the sweet dance moves of Kate Bush.”
Lucy Dacus has shared 2 new singles, “Ankles” and “Limerence”, off her upcoming album “Forever Is A Feeling” out March 28th.
Lucy Dacus shared this about the album: “I got kicked in the head with emotions. Falling in love, falling out of love…. You have to destroy things in order to create things. And I did destroy a really beautiful life. You can’t actually capture forever. But I think we feel forever in moments. I don’t know how much time I’ve spent in forever, but I know I’ve visited.”
The video for “Ankles” was directed by M. Amberson.
The Horrors have shared the fourth single, “More Than Life”, off their upcoming album “Night Life” out March 21st via Fiction.
The Horrors shared this about the song: “‘More Than Life’ has a different type of intensity to our recent singles, it’s more driving and direct. It was written in the middle of Canary Wharf, which looks more like Blade Runner everyday. It’s such a strange place to do anything creative as the surroundings feel particularly stark. We still needed a couple more songs for the album before going to LA to record at Yves’ studio, and we were in that insular part of the process where it feels like the outside world doesn’t exist. The song is basically about the question of what matters to you and by that point we were definitely clear on where we were heading.”
The video for the song was directed by Paris Seawell.
FACS have shared the third single, “You Future”, off their upcoming album “Wish Defense” out February 7th via Trouble In Mind Records.
Brian Case shared this about the song: “The final track is also the final action, look in the mirror and ask the questions. It’s a future self talking to a “you” from the past, assessing the path up until this point, questioning who you are. We bookended the album with the two songs that felt the most vulnerable and I think that really works with this idea of examining and challenging who you are and the perception of who you are.”
