For a band who released five albums in 2017, over 12-months without anything new seems like an eternity, but Melbourne’s freewheeling 7-piece, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, have ended their musical drought in some style with Cyboogie, a stomping near seven minute electro-shuffle that filters all that’s great about about the band through the Moroder-filter. Freak out to it below. Continue reading King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard – Cyboogie
Over the past couple of years, the nihilistic, bleakly brilliant post-punk of FEWS has firmly established the Swedish quartet as big time faves at MM, and that reputation is only going to be further enhanced by the latest track from upcoming Into Red. More Than Ever takes their propulsive menace and aligns it once more to themes of estrangement and alienation. It is a song … Continue reading FEWS – More Than Ever
Nottingham band Sancho Panza have shared new single Rearrange The Diamonds. It is a thoroughly enjoyable woozy meander through slacker rock and pastoral psychedelia. There are elements of Kurt Vile’s laid-back insouciance in the zoned-out vocals and while the song drifts good-naturedly along, it never loses its sense of purpose or identity. Probably goes really well with a lava lamp, some headphones and a footlong … Continue reading Introducing >>> Sancho Panza

We’re thoroughly enjoying our first introduction to Working Men’s Club. Named after the venues they used to sneak into, they are a new band made up of teenagers from Calder Valley – an area of old mill towns that links Leeds and Manchester. Their jerky debut single Bad Blood fuses 70s Magazine style guitar lines with the stomp of Parquet Courts’ at their most punky. From … Continue reading Introducing >>> Working Men’s Club
Madrid’s finest primordial garage rockers The Parrots have shared their latest song Cigarette Burns, which is brought to you via the always reliable Heavenly Recordings. Stream it here. Continue reading New Song From The Parrots
Black Country, New Road is a London-based six piece and Athen’s, France is their first single proper. It is a journey in itself. Detailing ‘a spectacular return to bad form; a romantic encounter; and a chronic fear of intercourse’ – it is a labyrinthine slice of indie oddness that, over six minutes, changes direction at every corner with a vocal delivery that sounds like Steve Albini … Continue reading Introducing >>> Black Country, New Road
