We have previously posted about The Soft Moon, and have just picked up a new track from them called Tiny Spiders. It is more krautrock inspired, post-punk electronic goodness with a whispered vocal that, if pushed, we’d say reminds us a little of a depressed David Sylvian backed by a demented Gary Numan. Anyway, we like it….it comes from the debut album out next month … Continue reading New from The Soft Moon
It’s Friday, Mrs M’s musings are still to come, and a Halloween playlist for the weekend too, but for now, here is a quick playlist/round-up of those songs we’ve gathered up recently, but not had/found enough time to post about properly… First up Leopold & His Fiction, we’ve seen this track described as the Doors meet Wolfmother… Download Leopold & His Fiction – Golden Friends … Continue reading Friday Round-Up
We’ve been a bit slow getting round to this post about Wing Commander, having been listening to these songs from their EP From 93 Onwards for a while now. The tracks themselves are hard to define, melding what could almost be described as vast sonic soundscapes with a bit of dubstep and underpinning it with a folkish mentality to create something that is naggingly familiar … Continue reading Introducing…Wing Commander
Jookabox is touring the Western US this November with two new 7″, before recording a follow-up to the wildly excitable Dead Zone Boys LP. The two 7″, titled Import and Export, will be available for purchase on tour, then to the public in early December. Try the typically frenetic, and typically bonkers, Worms from the Import 7″ below. They’ll continue to post photos, cryptic messages … Continue reading Jookabox Prepare New 7″ Releases
We’re still trying (and failing) to do justice to all the good stuff, the new stuff, the different stuff and the plain mad stuff that comes into our inbox or through the mail. So, with apologies to the bands involved, all of whom should really have had more than a couple of lines, here is another quick round-up for you covering everything from hardcore to … Continue reading Another Round-up
Joyful Noise Recordings dropped us a line to say they are to release Deerhoof’s new album on cassette! January 25th will see the release of Deerhoof vs.Evil, on cassette. The band recently signed with Polyvinyl, who will be releasing the album on LP and CD. It is probably true to say that few bands are as organically groundbreaking, experimental and ultimately interesting as this four-piece. For the last 16 years Deerhoof … Continue reading New from Deerhoof
Sun Demon is a new taster from iconic and hugely influential band Stereolab; about to return with their twelfth album and it is released during the band’s self-imposed hiatus from recording and touring. The album will be released via Stereolab’s own imprint Duophonic UHF Disks. Over the summer of 2007 Stereolab reconvened at Instant Zero, their studio in Bordeaux to record 32 luminous new songs … Continue reading New from Stereolab
Last month we gave you Photojournalist the first single from Small Black’s new album New Chain, a masterful slice of aural bliss perfect for a mid-afternoon or late night space out. Today we’ve got Search Party the second single from the album, a revved up banger of a tune built upon frantic synth sonics unraveling into bursts of melody over a dance ready beat. Sound … Continue reading New from Small Black
