As the new tunes keep rolling in, we’re doing our best to filter them and publish
them to the site – hundreds each month. This new installment of [**Fresh Tracks** ](https://indierockcafe.com/category/indie-rock-mixtapes/fresh-tracks-mix/)
features new songs from recently released, and upcoming, albums, EPs and singles
by a diverse and eclectic mix of bands and artists. As with most Fresh Tracks mixtapes,
there are songs we found surfing the web, that came to us in dee mail, and that 
we selected from the hundreds of submissions we receive each month via the band 
submission form. After releasing a slew of 7″ singles, the **Denver** noise-pop 
duo **Gauntlet Hair** have set October 18 for the release of their self-titled debut
album via **Dead Oceans**. As one of the dozens upon dozens of spectacular bands
that emerged big time on the ‘indie’ scene in 2010, Gauntlet Hair continue to impress
with each new song release. Thankfully, the band will finally see the official release
of their self-titled debut album in October.

“Top Bunk” – **Gauntlet Hair** from _Gauntlet Hair_ – Oct. 18th

#### Introducing Lightouts and Air Review

A **Gowanus**-based duo, **Lightouts** sounds a lot like **The Cure** on the new
track “Only The Smart Ones” (but we’re not complaining, it’s a great track) and 
we’re keeping our ears out for their debut album, _Want_. If you love the 90’s post-
punk, New Wave, goth rock sounds, you’ll probably be looking out for the release
date of Lightouts’ debut; we’ll definitely post something – even if just via our

accounts – Next, **Air Review**, deliver one of the best indie folk pop (think **
Sufjan Stevens**) tunes of the year with “America’s Son,” an exceptional and deep
track from the upcoming fall release of their self-titled debut album.

#### Ganglians, Neon Indian, Rubblebucket Release New Songs

Ganglians have been one of the blogger buzz bands of the past couple of years, and
they once again prove why they are deserving of the hype with the brand new track,“

a leading force in the chillwave movement of the past few years, has a new single
from the upcoming September release of his new album _Era Extraña_. And, what some

#### New Tracks from Carousel, Gabriel Miller Phillips, House of Wolves and More

Another duo, **Carousel**, from **Cambridge** in the **U.K.**, caught our attention
with a new cover of **The Stone Roses**‘ “Here To Me,” full of shoegaze hooks and
buzz saw riffs fronted by female vocals that draws comparisons to **Cut Copy **meets**
School of Seven Bells.** We also like Gabriel Miller Phillips, House of Wolves, 
Brown Shoe, and The Chocolate Horse.

“Here To Me” (Stone Roses) – **Carousel** from _single_
