New music on Mediabase taking Off and Spincrease.
This new song has a kinda laid back sound. It's passable, but I think they had much better material released last year, like "Itch" and "Ban All Music". Download in waiting.

Not bad. I've never heard of them before either. Reminds me a mixture of The White Stripes and The Black Keys a bit.

I really dig this after a first listen. Wouldn't mind seeing this do well on Alt in a few months.

YES! Just heard this on my local Alt station a week or so ago and it sounded fantastic on the radio! Hope this does big things. Their self-titled album is out on Friday, I'm excited to check that out as well.

One of the best songs of the year. I will be extremely disappointed if this doesn't blow up.

Lol, watch this go Top 50 on Active before Alternative. I won't complain, though. I just want to see this chart somewhere. Also, I think I prefer their song Graveyard Whistling to this one, but both are really good. Great new act.

It was announced (about a day before your post, actually) that they'd signed to RCA and pushed back their album release in the US to allow time to promote this, which is why things are just now ramping up for it. (And why I know and like it now!)

This sounds like it would have been big in the mid-2000s. Sounds very much like a less aggressive Royal Blood.

Fantastic choice for an OTV track. That means Top 15 pretty much guaranteed!

On The Verge at Alternative. I suspected so after seeing it post huge gains since it has popped into the Top 50. OTV is picking out some great songs for Alternative/Active so far. By the way, are there separate OTV songs for Alternative and Active? For example, "Out of the Black" and "Take It Back" were clearly affected by the OTV deal on Active but not Alternative, whereas "S.O.B." and "Renegades" were affected by it on Alternative but not Active.

Yes, I believe they usually restrict it to one format, but I think most of the ones listed in the Let's Talk Business thread were for Alt, so I suspect they get OTV picks more often (which I guess makes sense since the panel's bigger and there are more programmers?).

Actually, I think the Active Rock panel is still bigger than Alternative's. The difference is that Alternative acts more like a CHR/Pop station, and tends to put a lot of currents in heavy rotation and largely ignore recurrents, while Active relies more heavily on recurrents to retain its audience.

There are 75 stations on the Alternative panel, and 72 stations on the Active panel (the Alt panel has grown a lot in the past 3-4 years)

This guy's vocals are amazing. Trip Switch doesn't really show that off. I actually like Midnight Whistling more than this song. I think it could actually perform well on Pop charts. Their cover of Holding Out for a Hero is awesome too. Great band.

I definitely like it, but this is huge payola, since unlike SOB and Renegades, this isn't a track that a lot of people are downloading
