MM Gets All Psyched-Up

While that might be the worst post heading we’ve ever produced, thankfully this round-up of all things psych-inspired that have been worming their way into our in-box, and from there into our ears is far better and certainly well worth investigating.

bentcousin Get Dizzy

bentcousin are twin’s Patrick and Amelia and their new single Dizzy is a paean to their home town Brighton. It sees a release on the 1st July via Team Love Records.

MM Shorts 579: Truthers

Most Ghouls Agree is the second track from Truthers’ upcoming 7″ single – to be released on July 8th. Truthers have become known for their 50s and 60s style of shoegaze pop music laden with staccato guitar riffs and breezy, sing-along falsetto hooks – typically strung together in ominous discord. The new single begins with a simple, airy, and open feel that quickly fills out … Continue reading MM Shorts 579: Truthers
