Stream it here

In Love by Peace has easily been on of our most anticipated albums of 2013. Well, good news boys and girls, you can stream the entire album below. Favorites, 'Wraith', 'California Daze', and 'Follow Baby' all made the cut, surprisingly, 'Bloodshake' did not. You can purchase the album when it debuts on March 25. What are your thoughts? Sound off in the comments.

B-Town just keeps rolling them out. For those not in the UK, B-Town is the affectionate term for Birmingham (It's our not-so-subtle way of trying to sound like we know what we're talking about) The band is called Dumb, and they have more in common with the lo-fi, dreamy guitars of JAWS than that of Swim Deep or Peace. They've got a little edge to them though, and I think that's what makes them appealing. Enjoy their debut single, which is out March 31 via One Beat Records.

We wrapped up our 2012 with a band that we have high expectations for in 2013. Peace has been in our list for some time now, so when we heard that they were finally coming to New York, we had to see them live. Their singles 'Wraith', 'Bloodshake' and their first single, 'Follow Baby' all sounded flawless live. Lead singer Harrison Koisser warned, "This is sort of a long one, don't get lost in the jam." That started the high point of the night as the band played the 10-minute jam, '1998'. we got the chance to talk with them just before their set at Glasslands Gallery, in Brooklyn, about their first tour in America, debunking rumors concerning Johnny Greenwood's pants, and what the coming year holds in store for the band. 

The Peel: First off, I want to ask you guys about your first trip to the US. You played your first stateside show in LA, you just finished a set at Pianos here in New York and now you’re getting ready to play a show at Glasslands here in Brooklyn. What was your impression? How does touring in the UK differ from touring here?

Harrison: It was great. We're from England so we can tour there as much as we want. In America this is our first chance to play shows, so we're trying to get a buzz going. 

Doug: It's easy to do it in England; we could go and just stay at a friend’s house. We only have to drive a few hours each day. But for fucks sake, flying six hours to play a show...

Do you like Peace? Do you like ample ass-shaking? Then do I have a video for you! Wraith is Peace's strongest track yet, and this video does not dissapoint. All I can hope for now is that they will be bringing their two ass-shaking video gals to their NYC show next week.

If you're a fan of holiday-themed, jolly ol' Christmas music, consider yourself lucky. One, because I'm not, and you're getting a little Christmas present. And two, PEACE has done something quite interesting/fun/daring/surprisingly good. Enjoy this mashup of Mariah Carey + Radiohead, making 'All I Want For Christmas is a Creep.'

...OK, I like Christmas music.

Here's a sexy track from PEACE, called 'WRAITH'. If hooks could kill... This track has a mighty catchy sound. I'm not sure how they do it, but PEACE has been getting better and better with each release. They include some really cool distorted guitar sounds when the track opens up toward the end. If you're unfamiliar with PEACE, you must check out 'Bloodshake' and 'California Daze'. 

Hey New York! PEACE is also coming to PIANOS on December 19 for their world wide Xmas tour. The show is free so line-up early!

One of our favorite new acts, PEACE, is out with a video for their track 'Bloodshake'. It's a high-engery tune that will sure to get you over the hump. Check out their track 'California Daze', if you like it, you can download it for the price of your email address. Their Delicious EP is out now, pick it up on iTunes.

JAWS may be considered an anomaly with their West Coast sounds, lyrics about skateboarding, and a retro-surfer aesthetic. This band seems like it was ripped straight from a time warp, but believe it or not, they are a part of a scene in Birmingham, UK that's getting a lot of attention for their unique sounds. We got the chance to ask frontman Connor some questions about the band and where exactly their lo-fi sounds are coming from, and where they, as a band, are headed in the coming year.

Here we go! One of the new artists we're most excited about, PEACE, is set to release their debut EP on September 9. In anticipation, they've graced us with the track "Bloodshake". You can stream or grab a download of their track 'California Daze' right here.
