NaNo Playlist!
Here’s one of the songs I listen to while writing my NaNo novel! And you, what are you listening to?
Library Voices attack rock music with a sonic sound coupled with fuzz on their latest album “Lovish”. You can check out a few of their songs at lovish.squarespace.com .
“And if I didn’t care then, why would I care now? And if I didn’t try then, I doubt I’ve figured it out.”
Library Voices - “Oh Donna”

Pairs Well With…Yukon Blonde, Apache Relay, The Hold Steady
Library Voices released their third full-length late last year and Lovish is a nice continuation of the alt country/classic rock blend the Canadian band explored on their last EP For John. While guitars and cool, traditional songwriting are still top of mind, the synth pop influence of the band’s earlier material still finds play in songs like “Sunburnt in LA” and keyboard ballad “The Wild Roar of Love”. The strongest of Library Voices’ music is one of washy rock and roll (“Oh Donna”, “Slacker”), something that feels like a they realize as well throughout the relatively diverse set.
2015 Review: Garage rock and alt country twist together in Library Voices’ 2014 EP For John, an expansive effort from the reliable Canadian band. There’s a vibe of 70s psychedelia that runs through For John, a nice direction, filtering their energy through playful guitar licks and genre-hopping mindsets. The echoed platitude of Library Voices is a hypnotic throwback, a basement band equipped with a wall of sound.
2012 Review: Canada’s Library Voices brings a ton of energy on their latest LP Summer of Lust. Their brand of indie rock/pop is consistently bright and driving while still remaining sonically interesting. Whether you’re into dancing on lyric dissecting, Library Voices can fit your bill. There’s a youthful punk-inspired energy throughout their catalog, which works really well in their strongly crafted songs. I especially like some of their little melodic touches that bring their sound up a notch, such as the subtle electronics and saxophone fills that layer out their latest single “Traveller’s Digest”. I truly enjoy the pop and experimental sides equally with Library Voices. When both come together in the middle, Library Voices is at their best.
