Videos of the Day: The Away Days || The Detroit Rebellion || Paradise || Green Apple Sea

Musical films today in the shape of a hazy, tripped out offering from The Away Days, some brilliant dirty blues rock from The Detroit Rebellion, and an incendiary live performance from Paradise who continue to single-handedly keep the sixties mod revival going in Portland, Oregon. Finally, take a sepia tinged road trip for the indie folk of Green Apple Sea. . . . Continue reading Videos of the Day: The Away Days || The Detroit Rebellion || Paradise || Green Apple Sea

MM Shorts 359: The Mohawk Lodge’s 1000 Violins

Here is a third track from The Mohawk Lodge’s forthcoming album Damaged Goods. In contrast to the other two we’ve already posted, 1000 Violins is a more reflective ruminative song with dark themes at its heart – it is a cathartic coming to terms with longing, pain and desperation, haunting, affecting and ultimately  rather beautiful. Have a listen. . Continue reading MM Shorts 359: The Mohawk Lodge’s 1000 Violins

Watch our selection of excellent music videos from the deep blues of GravelRoad’s brain melting Monkey With A Wig, to the psychedelic desert-folk of decker’s live take on their track Cotton, Jane Doe and all by way of the Treetop Flyers sun-drenched Laurel Canyon vibe of Things Will Change and the wonderful Pack A.D.’s fiercely grisly video for Positronic. . . . .

The trademark scuzzy punk blues and feral snarl that distinguished their release of album Rad Times Express IV last year remains very much to the fore on Hey Rockin’. Listen for yourself. It is … Continue reading New From Black Bananas

While comparisons to the White Stripes, the Black Keys and Nick Cave are legitimate enough, don’t be fooled into thinking this is mere imitation. No sir! Taking … Continue reading Free Download From The Lost Souls Club

Check Out Well Hung Heart’s TV Show

This is something else we’re way too late on, but still something else that is too good not to share… We are big fans of Well Hung Heart’s and their idea for a brand new TV show Made In 48 is a brilliant one.
