If It's Too Loud...

Photo by Daniel Topete Blondshell (aka Sabrina Teitelbaum) has her new album due out Friday, but if you're as excited for it as we are, you're going to want to hear another new song while we wait. Luckily, she just released one last single, "Event of a Fire." This new song is an alt-pop/indie rock power ballad that blurs the line between rock and pop. The song starts off quietly and slowly builds to a much louder and explosive song. It's somehow Blondshell's most pop and rock song recorded so far. "Event of a Fire" was written while Teitelbaum was burnt out from touring and after a 4:00 a.m. hotel fire alarm evacuation outside of Boston. Just when we think we couldn't be more excited for her new album on Friday... Sabrina Teitelbaum says of her latest single: “It’s not really ‘what if I’m burnt out from touring.  It’s like, ‘what if I’m burnt out from just existing?’” You can watch the video for "Event of a Fire" below. If You Asked for...

Photo by Daniel Topete We've been liking the music of Blondshell quite a bit over here at If It's Too Loud..., but we think Sabrina Teitelbaum might have outdone herself with her latest single. "23's a Baby" is an epic song living between the borders of indie rock and alt-pop. It's filled with pop hooks and harmonies while still mostly sounding like a rock song. This is an addictive song that is doing to suck listeners into its sonic world. Plus, Teitelbaum has become the best slacker vocalist of her generation, and she's never quite nailed the 90's slacker thing quite like she does on "23's a Baby." There's a certain segment of musicians that seem to appeal to young women and middle-aged hipster dads, and Blondshell certainly does with her modern pop meets 90's alt-rock sound. Sabrina Teitelbaum says of her latest single: “ The song is partially about being in your twenties and feeling like you’re supposed to know everything (you...

Photo by Hannah Bon No one is doing the indie rock meets alt-pop thing quite like Blondshell. Sabrina Teitelbaum's musical project just released a new single that is set to blow minds. "Two Times" is a stunning piano and acoustic guitar ballad that is as simple and as lush as it could possibly be. Teitelbaum's vocals and lyrics are at the forefront of the track, and while she's always been a fantastic songwriter (just watch her play the song "Sepsis" live and listen to the scream along lyric "The sex is almost always bad / I don't care 'cause I'm in love" to see how much her lyrics resonate with her audience), but she's on a completely new level with "Two Times." As someone who is usually focuses on the sound of the song first and the lyrics second or third, the lyrics of this one grabbed me immediately. Expect this one to be a popular wedding song for the Gen-Z crowd. Sabrina Teitelbaum says of her latest single: “I f...

Photo by Daniel Topete Blondshell (aka the musical project of Sabrina Teitelbaum) is back with new music. "T&A" expands on her fantastic 2023 self-titled album. It has that amazing mix of indie rock goes pop sound, but with an added, almost arena ready oomph. Teitelbaum has always been great at lines and choruses just begging to be song and/or yelled at a live show, and "T&A" is filled with that. It's still a song that feels confessional and raw, just on a larger scale. If Blondshell was a collection of songs hinting at a future megastar, "T&A" is the beginning of what is going to propel Blondshell to much bigger stages in the very near future. Sabrina Teitelbaum says of her latest single: “There’s a Rolling Stones song on  Tattoo You  called ‘Little T&A’ and at one point in the song, he says ‘tits and ass,’ so I’m borrowing that. I think in music, it’s easy to see things as either more sexualized or more romantic, and I wanted this to ...
